    What's up fellas,

    I have been a Tundra fan ever since I was a kid and my grandpa had one, and since then I knew I would get one when I was older. 3 years ago I found this forum and have been on it every week reading about different mods, what not to do and how to do things better, shit like that. I gotta say that I learned a LOT from you guys so thanks for that.

    I told myself once I graduated college a Tundra would be my first purchase, and sure enough, it was!

    I had always wanted a Quicksand Pro and two months after graduation I saw this baby on the lot at a dealer in Thornton, and bought it a week later. Couldn't let it slip since I haven't seen to many. Three weeks later I upgraded to Fox 2.5 DSC with SPC uppers, and Fox 2.0 with an AAL in the rear. I realize now that this was mistake, but hey live and learn right? It's not that the ride is awful, but it's not good to say the least. When compared to the front that is. My next upgrade will be new leaf's and DSC's in the rear as well. Looking forward to sharing this build somewhere, whether people see it or not

    The only thing I don't like is the AAL, it does ride noticeably more rough than before - in certain cases. On the road is substantially more rough IMO, but off road it's negligiblable. Other than that the fox pieces are wonderful.
