MARYLAND TACOMAS

Anyone do d-rings in the front of the bed? I need some

 

Ditto.

 

@LUSETACO

 

From camelback toyota parts they are $22 a piece, if i can get some tractor supply ones to use under the front bed mount bolts, and paint them black, that'd be the berries

 

Fuck $22 each!? I'll just pretend to have them at that price and use the ones on the side Lol.

 

Also does anyone have a tire balance machine that actually can print out the specs? Wheelers needs documentation of the rims being out of balance.

 

I have two rims out 15oz and 16oz feels like driving on a cheese grater

 

For the D rings, your best bet is getting D rings from etrailer or some other site and drilling out the hole to the proper size, then fighting with the bed bolts to get them out and install the new D rings, theres a write up on here for it somewhere

 

Bye Tacoma. hello new car

 

Camping at Green Ridge would be the perfect honeymoon!

 

Sorry to see you go. Who will organize the MD Taco Annual Arundel Mills Meet?

Reason for abandoning the Tacoma?

Also, any leftover parts available?

 

The Audi was hella cheaper and no parts left over. I have a stock non scooped hood MGM

 

But how are you going to camp in an Audi?

 

How much for the hood?

 

I didn't even go camping in the truck. Lol and it's for the 2nd gen not the facelift 2nd gen

 

Well thats where you screwed up lol.

 

I have ideas but have not started anything yet. Been struggling just to keep up with current work. Not that I want to turn anyone away but I would say go for it. I won't have time anytime soon.

 

I know you said you can barely keep up with orders, but if things slow down, or you hire some help, you need to make a rear tube bumper for 2nd gens.

I think brute force makes a hybrid rear, but there are really no true tube rears for the 2nd genners. I've been too busy to fabricate for my off road company the last 2-3 years, but I still get weekly inquiries about building more of my rear bumper. got one earlier today in fact. you'd be sitting on a gold mine if you can start tube rears...

 

So what we are doing is regearing our forces. It is me and another guy, he currently handles all our high volume orders, website, accounting. I do all the fabrication work. We split the ideas and cad designs. What we are going to start doing is subbing out some of our work so we can continue to expand. We are already to the point now where all our orders take all our time.

Funny you say this because he and I both want tube bumpers. We want protection without weight and we started sketching ideas on what we wanted to do with them. We have the tubing bender, we have tubing, and we have the welder, just need time! But things should start to calm down and we can put focus back into R&D and keep growing. When I start, if you're interested come by and we can shoot the shit.
