Tacos in St. Louis area

No. I'll be replacing the front bushing and putting the leaf liner in the top two. It should be better than what they are changing.

 

Are you gonna put a 3 degree shim on to reduce vibrations?

 

It all depends on the angles of my u-joints. You ideally want the middle and rear joint to be the same angles to cancel out the vibrations. I installed my third member and the Dakars today. I might check the angles tomorrow.

 

Anyone have any good recommendations for a new battery?

 

I like my AC Delco Pro Gold. From my research that was the best without spending $$$

 

Running Odyssey batteries which are not only made in Missouri, but are the original manufacturer of allot of other brand name batteries.

 

Wait did someone have a seal leak after we did the bushing mod day?

 

Ya me! It's all good now!

 

Swung by the pay-n-spray this morning before heading out to the lake to play with sailboats for a bit. Water got too big for small boats so we cashed out and yet again the Pyrite Mica impressed me with its subtle color changes.

Already have some solid ideas on the mods I want to do to the new bumper thanks to @ChandlerDOOM and @MO Tacoma. Once those are done then I'll send it off for a powdercoat and be rid of the hasty rattle can job.

 

Looking good man!
