Your Tacoma can handle it. Get yourself a set of the magnetic trailer lights, in case the M1102's lights aren't working, and watch your speeds. When you're doing your once over of the trailer, make sure all the lug nuts are tight and bring a spare if you can. Good luck and be safe.

The M932A2 are a little harder to come by, than other M939s. I got lucking and scored a good one, off GL from Camp Shelby, that only needed a lift pump and an air dryer. Good luck on the hunt.
I can't tell by the picture but it appears that there are no bolts on the underside of that spring hanger. This would explain the crack in the bracket as the torque to the rear end will tear that hanger to pieces, if it's not properly bolted down...
The size of the lift is a concern but of a greater concern is the fact that he used the weaker rectangular tubing, instead of a stronger solid steel lift block. This is a clue that this owner half a$$es things. The picture of him crushing the car leads me to believe he might abuse his toys, and...

I relocated the fuel tank for that exact reason. I like the idea of the ball valve on the bell housing that's way easier than placing/pulling the drain plug, especially when the underside is dripping water and mud all over you...
Definitely need to pickup a couple spare fuel filters.
Gotcha. So do the axles do not receive positive pressure from the crankcase, when the fording lever is pulled? For now I just ran some hose from the axle vents up into the cab to ensure they don't suck in water. It also looks like top of the master cylinder has a 90 degree NPT elbow so I'll...
