Hey guys, I hope I can get a little clarification. I'm a brand new Tacoma owner, and like any new interest I'm trying to gather as much information as possible. I just bought an '08 SR5 Tacoma to replace my recently deceased 1996 Jeep XJ, and have been doing research on lifting it. (Lifting the TACO, not raising the dead jeep) I've read a lot about lifts, and keep seeing OME shocks. Am I correct in assuming that these are Old Man Emu shocks? I had a Old Man Emu 2" lift on my and am familiar with their fine products. Like I stated earlier, I'm new to Toyota and wasnt sure if OME had some bizzaro meaning.
Thanks,
Rob......feeling silly

If you are replacing both shock & spring, go with OME. I drove one a few weeks back that only replace the shock, and it felt crappy to me.

If you order through www.toyteclifts.com, call in your order and mention you are member on TN (Toyota Nation) and they should give a break. I just ordered Front OME Shocks and Rear extended brake lines and saved little over $30.

Not a deep dish grille. Just a color matched grille with grillecraft insert, and a 69 FJ emblem.

Truck is silver, prolly just looks dark because of the snow and reflection.
