Northern Virginia Roll Call

I still need to order the plates haha! It might need to be ~2 weeks from now..

I also think my tire is rubbing the cab mount, because I got bigger tires, and didnt do another alignment. It might change after I install my new suspension, and get another alignment.. But Id rather have it done, for the future

 

Just let me know

 

Yes ,it was a Tacoma. I guess they are going to replace the sunroof on that truck and sell it! As far as me getting a truck with sunroof is out I have seen many reports that the sunroof is popping. I'm going to get a TRD ORDC as soon as they locate one because we can't agree on terms and I can keep my payment at my current loan under $380 and no money out of my pocket. I just can't justify $3K for sunroof,back up sonar,heated seats etc:

 

I think the 16+ have sunroofs? or some models do..

 

When you get the technology package you get a lot of shit back up sonar,sunroof,lane departure warning etc:

Sounds like some crap they threw on just to get another $3k out of people that "ooh" and "ahh" over the stuff you don't really need. My .02

 

Yes indeed it was adding like 50 bucks to my payment per month....

 

Yo man I'm in Richmond as well!!

 

Sorry, I was just in Richmond. However I do head down a couple times a month. In the summer's I'm in fredericksburg. During school year I'm in Fairfax.

 

Any change in front suspension and you will need an alignment

Matt

 

I didnt change suspension yet. I called High Tech, and they said I didnt need an alignment when going from 31s to 33s

 

Tire change, no. Suspension change, yes.

Matt

 

Im thinking I have rubbing on the cab mount, because the last time I had an alignment, was before I put 33s on. I hope after I put the new suspension on, it will fix my rubbing issue. But I still am going to do the CMC

 

Wheels looks Sick!
Can you share wheel specs?
Size?
Offset?
Is that SCS Copper?
I'm interested in that groupbuy on another thread but found few who actually have these installed and looking for fitment references.

Thx

 

You probably don't need the CMC. I have 33's and no rubbing except for very minor rub at full turn lock. And that is the inside of tire against the UCA.

 

Thanks, yup scs copper on a 17 in rim. Here's the wheel specs

 

the rubbing I have is in reverse with the wheel turned to the left. And only on the driver's side

 

Can't remember if I already told you these but you will want your alignment specs to be as close to 0* toe, 0* camber, and 2.5* caster. The higher caster will help with the rubbing

Matt

 

yep lloyd your rt with either 255's on my truck or 285's no rubbing and no cmc required was prepared to do it but rendered unnecessary.that's also with stock uca's. at last alignment they were able to only get my caster numbers to 1.4 and 1.7 although you also have to remember that higher caster numbers isn't always the answer. there's a couple of good threads on here that can explain with factual numbers way better than i can,however, if caster numbers are achieved solely at the top of the spindle when moved forward at the top it'll move the bottom back actually creating contact issues where there may not have been any

 

Yes I know. And so does High Tech.

Im not stock guys. My alignment was probably thrown off from actually going off road many times, bumper/skids/armor, and not stock tires. It will be fixed soon. My suspension should be shipping today.
