San Diego BS Thread.

I've seen threads where people talk about it, as if they have it, but not how they did it.

its just the shocks, I'd be using everything else off my tacoma

this is all first gen stuff, by the way

 

I need mine done. Just waiting on parts the lady said. Does anyone know if i have to take my AAL out first?

 

Maybe it does then I might have a set of both to compare but the Tacoma uses a 3 bolt hat and the Tundra a 4 bolt they look similar other than that I will look and see if I have some to compare. I've never tried to swap between the two.

 

not at home anymore but i had a comparison picture. struts are the same other than the bottom mounting thing (whos name i cant think of right now) being bigger and therefore stronger on the tundra

 

I want to learn how to climb like you pros...what's up Kevin!

 

There have been a few, they pretty much fell flat immediately. Maybe thatll change now though!

 

Any drive cam guys here? I need 3 of them. Looking for first had experience.

 

Anyone know someone with a plasma table ? I need a few plates cut and mine is down.

 

Nope, he'll swap it out for you. Just tell them to take note of it.

 

i bought and installed them today. worked fine no modifications needed. Supposedly a stiffer ride but im used to my slammed 300zx on stiff coilovers so i hope its super stiff lol

 

Good to know. Hope they give you the ride you wanted.

 

I wanna see that v8 tacoma in person!

 

It's kinda like a unicorn......or actually with more thought, it's more like a flying donkey with big muscles !
No worries hit me up anytime.

 

So I installed a lift on a 4x4 Tacoma this morning and did the Bilstein 6112 front and the 5160 rear setup certainly a lot more beefy than the 5100 series suspension, been doing quite a few of these suspension upgrades lately.

It comes with the collar/snap ring type configuration with 5 settings starting at .60" average lift so that setting comes close to leveling the truck out the next setting would almost make it nose high.

I'll try and get some pics (forgot to take the while I was working lol)

 

Courtyard Marriott? Is John still the valet manager?

 

Hey guys, what's up? I'm new to the Tacoma world as I just acquired my first truck. I have already taken note of James up at the Truck Shop and I believe I will use him to check my tranny fluid just to make sure everything is good coming from the factory.

I was a car guy before all of this, so a lot of it is new to me. Stationed down here in the SD area, so I am excited to get out and about.

Welcome to the forums
Congratulations on the new Tacoma

 

Thanks! Much appreciated! I have definitely been enjoying it a lot so far. I think I might be in love.

 

Welcome.

Why did you bring up the trans fluid level needing to be checked? Is your trans doing weird things or something?

 

thats not my marriott, there are actually 5 in the downtown area.
