I am worried about something breaking and I have two ****ing rigs, in case one breaks I have a backup. Laugh all you want but that is what it has come to. I want my **** built right the the FIRST time so I don't have to do a trail fix in the hot sun. Tacoma's have a proven history of bending frames so my frame is plated Front and Rear. I know it is no SUPER DUPER Bronco but the force seen via leaf springs on a much lighter Tacoma in my opinion is not near as detrimental as the force provided by radius arm straight back into a frame.

The idea of oh I don't want to do that now bit me in the ass just in March. I didn't replace both of my front birfields with Longfields when I broke my first and the other one lasted 11 months before it blew in March and I had to spend three hours on the trail cleaning out a bell and manipulating a new shaft in getting dirty and nasty. Had I done it right when I had the chance and opportunity I wouldn't have been in that spot. Do it right the first time.

NOW, ya'lls current way may be the right way I honestly don't know, I just had problems with this way of thinking.
Really? that is the dumbest thing you have read in a while? I've spent some time talking to a lot of big time fabricators and that is what it all boils down to. I was trying to get a 6 inch kit for a dodge from Sage Carli but he wasn't ready to start selling them and they have spent the last 2 years building, testing, breaking and rebuilding... and it's a radius arm coil spring suspension too.

We did our homework, built something we think will work and now we want to test it.
