My 04 ate wheel bearings like they were going out of style. It was my main reason for selling it. I went through 3 sets in 4 months.

 

Also in case anyone is interested, I randomly got a PM about this today. I'm still planning to go Camburg though. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/all-pro-uca-group-buy-closes-9-31.450992/

 

In case anybody hasn't seen this yet. Good group of folks out of Knoxville.

 

Were you replacing with OEM (I think Timken) or what ever the shop pressed in?

 

Steeles... I haven't attempted aluminum yet

Am I buying all the supplies or just welding them up?

 

Emailed them about going riding with them and got a response saying to go to their next ride but no info on when/where. My manager here in Knoxville grew up with the guy who owns the inferno runner.

 

You delivering me a set of 5 welded up wheels, buying everything. Well I guess me picking them up.

 

I can't remember now its been a little over 3 years. The first 2 sets a buddy and I did ourself, the 3rd I took it to a shop hoping for different results. I sold it when they went out that 3rd time. I also put a steering rack in that truck, 2nd gear went out, both rear wheel cylinders were leaking etc. It was just a turd.

 

Or hell, I guess I could have the steelies shipped to ya and then you just weld them all up.

Damn. I hope that isn't this case for me.

 

They are pretty active on the East Tennessee Overlanders Facebook page. They are organizing a ride over to the Overland Expo and a group ride in January.

 

I've talked to a couple guys on that facebook page. They have monthly get togethers too. I hope to join along on one of their rides when I'm home.

 

What tires do you have?

 

Just got added to that group

Taking a poll here, and I know most of y'all are married but anyways. Would you rather have a girl who shared the same interests as you, i.e. Working out, off-roading, camping, etc. or a girl who had different hobbies. I know a lot of the time off-roaring trips are that get away from the s.o weekend but then sometimes you think it'd be cool to have a girl who loves that stuff too?

Gid, you're disqualified because you and Sarah are the same person.

 

Both. Share some interests, and have some that are completely separate. Exactly like you said, time spent apart is healthy, and supporting each other in doing your own thing is extremely important. There has to be common ground also, however.

 

PS. Don't forget about pricing tires for me tomorrow.
