50+ thread

I've seen some more expensive than full size trailers.
I just think they are just cool how they are customizable to each person.

 

Have a good night all, have to get back at it, I'll check back in the am.

 

Back from 11 days in Baja... I turned 59 while on the trip... See the many photos, trip report, and video clip... with more being added (I am up to Day 8 in the report). Here is the post: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/the-baja-extreme-2016.452058/



THAT's BAJA CALIFORNIA BABY!

 

You know its getting close to Route 66 Rendezvous when You start seeing friends you know at the auto parts stores getting parts . I've also seen a few of the high hp toys cruising around today blowing the cobwebs

Can't wait just under 6 days until the fun begins but not fun on the wallet thickness gauge . last year I spent close to $120 in gas and I only live 7 miles away from the cruise route

 

yes tedd you are correct i am happy in here! i'm not so much anywhere else and this thread gives me some release. it's only the supportive people on here that have made me feel that way. on here i feel free and can enjoy myself

 

255/80/17 yes basically 33x10.5

 

Like me when go to the track. I see our "racing family" way cool

 

mike's trying to help you but i think he needs some more specifics

 

Truck looks Great Chris! Nice Choice!

 

True can be difficult to go by user names... I'll forgive you for that one.... What do you consider OLD??

When you spend most of your working years with nothing but guys.... Except for a FEW women, I'd prefer to work with guys

Hope you had a blast playing with the nephew.... and I hope he had fun, too!

I go a little Simmy time in this morning. Took a dresser up to them and he's "walking" he's taken a few steps un assisted, but that's it.

Not much here yet, either.... SUPPOSED to get down in the upper 50's one night this week and there were no 90's in the forecast

looking good Chris

welcome

beautiful!!!

so tired.... why is driving so tiring?? only went 300 miles and I'm whooped

Evening boys

 

Good evening Susan,some civility has arrived, lol.

 

Your loaded for Bear In the Gadget Department Mike!! Sounds like a Awesome Hunting trip in the Making ! Enjoy!

 

In truth. Old is more attitude.
My joints may creak but my mind is still sharpish. I've been called a big kid at work-and a grey haired 12 year old. So age and old don't go hand in hand.

Secondarily. On a forum that had a thread for 30 somethings, 40 somethings, and this one as the 50+ crowd, I figured calling everyone "old men" would

I guess that worked

 

Well, still not grey haired!!!! When I left the military 12 years ago, and one of the other ladies there (she was 4 months older than me) was over half grey. I do have some, but way more dark than grey!!! If I was a guy, I'd be distinguished for my grey hair.

Don't ever plan on growing up....

 

To quote a wonderful musician from Seymour
"Growing up leads to growing old and growing old leads only leads to dying"

 

Hi Mike
Ok bushing vs bearing yes it's both, it's a needle bearing from the factory which is the drivers side CV axle needle bearing and it needs to be replaced with an oversize bushing to control vibration and shaft float common to these diffs especially when lifted, this vibration goes away when shifted into 4 wheel drive. This is a common issue and I'm surprised you haven't heard this before, sorry for the lack of info I was under the assumption that most were aware of it, and yes I did mean both Bushing and Bearing! Just didn't give you enough info.

 

You made a good choice Chris, looks great!

Nice intro, love the teardrop
My off roading buddy has the same Tundra, he just redid all the suspension, after we broke the old stuff.

The first 50 years of childhood are the hardest

 

No we have done these. We are aware of it. I was just trying to figure out what the hell you were talking about. The reason I was asking is because it's a warranty condition.

 

What the hell. 6am, 42 degrees, and I'm going outside to hook up the boat. I must be friggin nuts. Oh well, last time out for the year..... Once hooked up I'll grab some breakfast and head out..

 

It is in the low 60's here this morning, front is moving through straight out of the South so it is warm and rainy. 40's tonight where it should be after the rain passes. Good luck fishing Mike, be cutting holes in the ice to catch them soon enough.
