Orange County CAF's: up to no good

Unfortunately no. It's a 2wd 4 banger prerunner double cab.


Wondering what mods to do first....

 

rear locker

 

No worries, man. You're truck is plenty capable of awesome wheeling. Let's see a photo of your new addition.

 

Which one would you reccomend?

I'll have to take some better pics when I get off work today. It's pretty much stock other than some wheels off of I think a 2010 and some new tires. Probably will do suspension soon after I find a camper top.

I bought the truck to take on some simple trails but I'm also a pretty avid surfer and camper. I didn't want to kill my MPG's too much! Haha

You still think I got a good price?

Luckily though before I bought it I had my buddy check it out. He found out the timing chain case had a really small leak. The seller had no clue as he brought the truck from Oregon and got it all ready for the drive by getting work done at the dealership. So he was pretty cool and for the case replaced before I bought it and didn't change price on me. Still a high mileage truck but I'm hoping if I take care of it right it will last forever!

 

You'd have to ask some of the other guys who've done it. I don't know much about getting one of them hooked up. Maybe @eccracer104 can help you out further

 

I suggest an ARB locker and pair it with their air compressor. Best bang for your buck there. They're a proven outfit.

As long as your frame is good and free from any Oregon rust then it sounds like you got a truck that will last half a million miles as long as you maintain it properly.

Ask yourself what you're looking to do with your truck before dumping money into it. You may not need half the crap people will suggest you get.

 

Pretty much what Greg said. But just be careful, I didn't think I was going to get any suspension done to it until after my warranty was up. Sure enough, 2 months later, here I am dropping 3k in to Kings. Everyone in here is a bunch of ass holes.

 

Seat covers, Weather-tech floor mats, and a lifetime alignment (Goodyear) Things you actually need.

 

Thanks for reminding me. My back seat seatcovers from Coverking still haven't arrived. I need to make a phone call

 

Wet okole group buy in november. Ahem. Haha

 

I already got my fronts in bruh! I'm quite happy with them as well, they fit and look great. And half the price

 

Probably camp. Use it as a surf rig to head down to mex or up the coast. Hit some fun easy trails and DD it to work. The frame looks solid which I was really surprised about being from Oregon there is like zero rust on the truck.

Wet Okole is probably what I will do!

I'm in!

 

A great price! Nice job on the find
Make sure the timing chain is fixed. I don't know much about them, but I know if they break it's a huge nightmare.

TRD Off-Road mine was factory

ARB air locker w/ compressor would be the best way to go for a locker. It make's a huge difference for us 2wd guys. It's an expensive upgrade but really will improve your traction when you're off road and helps to keep you moving forward so you don't get stuck as easily.

Lifetime alignment will be my next purchase. My last one was from goodyear but only 3 years... what am I missing here? Where are most of you guys getting lifetime alignments? I've only found firestone but idk if I'll fit on their rack yet.

 

That was the icing on the cake lol. My first mistake was riding in @Mike likes Tacos truck my first outing

 

What UCAs did you order with your Kings?

 

I just went with the Light Racing UCAs might/probably upgrade later

 

Why only 3yrs with Goodyear!?My buddy runs a Goodyear shop and it's lifetime!

 

I just picked up the lifetime Firestone package for 170. Took the tech a few choice beers and he and I talked Tacoma's for 20 mins. Build the rapport, man. Build it. Haha. My alignment is straight as an arrow.

UCAs are like shoes. There's Nike, Reebok, etc. At the end of the day they're moslty all good. When going mid travel youre fine with LR. Wouldn't have let you go that route if they were shit. Camburg, LR, TC, and Icon are all great. Although tc can correct some things with that top bolt.

 

In-N-Out 4 lunch

 

Idk, that was the only option at the time I purchased mine.

This is probably the route I'll be going. Just need to get down to one and see if they can accommodatemy rig
