The Taco is gone... Time to start my Soccer mom build, the third kid is on the way! I have to say I like the 5.7 it pulls.

Either of the posts.

Looks like RadFlow made a custom set for the silver sequoia. He worked with Sierra Expeditions. I bought a bumper from them they are pretty cool. I have no idea what the price point is though.

So my thought is to customize the KINGs and see if they could shave 1.7 inches of the body and 1.3 inches off the shaft. Then use a limiting strap for downward travel? Or would that be necessary.

That would be 21.3 extended and 13.7 collapsed 7.6 inches of travel or 2 inches over the bilsteins.

Nice build! Any issues running 17" wheels? Most shops tell me that 17s won't fit on a 2nd gen Toyota. Guess they're wrong.
