Default Re: Suspension for farm work

Not a huge update, but I did get the TC arms in last week from ORW. Donahoe has been having supplier issues with collars and end caps...and apparently some computer problems as well, so they have been lagging. I talked to Victor at ORV yesterday though, and he hooked me up with the SAW coilovers which are freshly on the market. I don't know if he was p!ssing on my leg and telling me it was raining, but he said that SAW designs their coilovers specifically for toyoter, and that this coilover is also specifically designed to work with the TC UCAs on the 2007 Tundra. Does this sound like BS? He said, as you did Dev, that the SAWs have come a long way with quality and durability and they will be great for my application. Victor also said that he placed the order directly with SAW, the coilovers would be custom built for me in the next 3-5 days and then drop-shipped. Should have them late next week. I was pretty damned impressed.

I talked to the guy at the local off-road shop, he said that to install the AAL, UCAs, diff drop, Coilovers, and do an alignment, it would be $295 OTD. He also said that I could shadow him for the day to see how everything is put together in case I run into any issues on my own.

Thanks for the reco on SAW Devin!

Now I just need to put on a set of step tubes, and then see what I have left for tires. The Pirelli Scorpions treated me very well on my Taco, but they slipped on the pasture grass, so I'm going to explore some decent options that aren't outrageously big.
