| The SEMA Show |
| SEMA (the specialty equiptment market assosiation) holds the big show every year in Las Vegas, Navada. This show is closed to the general public, and you must be in the automotive buisness to get in . This being the first year I was able to attened, I was very exited. To start, we didn't get any pictures so don't bother scrolling down to the bottom of the page. But I will let you know about some cool new products. First for those who own TJ's. Skyjacker now has a rock ready kit in 6", 8", and now 10". the ten inch kit is a coil over bracket that pinches the factory bracket. This comes with King Coil overs . the kit still fits 38" tires and looks awsome.The rear is still a coil, but King shocks are used. Skyjacker also has new Tacoma coil over lifts. Another product that caught our eyes was the OX cable operated locker. I've herd a lot about this locker but never got a close up view. I belive this locker is one of the strongest , and most inovative locker i've seen. This locker is operated by a shift fork built in to a very heavy duty diff cover. A small leaver is then mounted near the driver, and a cable is ran between then. Pretty simple! This locker can be engaged and disengaged as pleased. All this with no air line to worry about like with an ARB. I would recomend this locker to anyone who wants a stout rear end. Among the other thousands of booths we visited were, Tuffy, ARG, Tera Flex, Tomken, Procomp , and Webber. It would take ten pages to cover all the stuff there but to some it up there was more stuff to see than can be seen in one day. Such as monster truck, street rods, classics, imports, and show trucks. For some good pictures, Rockcrawler.com has a few that I saw. |
