Austin Area TW Chapter (all gens welcome, even T4Rs; heck, just make it a Toyota and we're good)

YUP! It would be nice! My GF has 6 weeks vacation!!!! She is the director of a travel guide company lol so she is constantly traveling for free too!

I think if I can get out of production and get into a quality or support role I will be much happier with the job in general. Also they need to hire someone to do receiving, shipping, and inventory management badly!!!! It all falls on me now...on top of me being the lead production tech... so I am just overwhelmed with work to the point where I just DGAF anymore! It's sad because I cared a lot about the job at one point. Plus the GM has been a total asshat this year because he keeps losing his top talent to the big companies because they don't want to pay anyone what the competitors are paying!? How cheap!!!

 

I dated a girl with a red convertible bud, manual, big chrome wheels. She took care of it like Chad takes care of his truck. Mobbed it without shame

 

Heh... production. I'm the production manager where I am.. go manage the shop they said... it'll be fun they said....

 

It's just a spring don't see why it wouldn't. Never hurts to try

 

May need to snag it

 

Pipe down over there! haha or get your ass to the dealer already lol

I would totally have a side bizz if I had unlimited PTO!

 

All good buddy I was just going to pull the trigger but me and @Texoma might have thought you'd be mad

 

You sure you want another leaf though? May ride rough. A 1" block or shackle should be fine

 

If anyone with a PreRunner wants a URD y-pipe with the o2 sensor harnesses, drop me a line and let's make a deal. I can't use it on my truck

 

Haha!! yeah, I still want that puppy lol

Dont really want to mess with the shackle flip, and a block would be alright I suppose....

But the AAL could be added in my case without a longer center pin (im almost positive)

 

Yeah, shackle flips can get expensive. Idk how long your center pin is for the Dakars.. Don't throw out the idea of a block, though. A lot of members will throw hate at 'em but they're just reverberating what they've read elsewhere most of the time. TacomaWorld seems to always hate the most "budget" option haha. My best friend ran a 1" block under his stock leafs, mobbed the shit out of his truck and they never had any issues. I think he runs 'em under his 3" All Pro pack now, but I could be mistaken.

If you want to stiffen up the ride in the rear, though, i'd say go for it. Don't know how much that bumper affected it weight wise.

 

Right on

Chris is right when he says my new bumper wont be much more weigh than the stock one with hitch

Just kicking around some ideas and seeing what is available locally

 

Gonna be sweet man whats your lead time down to on front and rear bumpers?

 

I currently just own a front bumper at the moment

Hoping to have it on by the time Im 30 (December 15th)

All it really needs is cleaned, primed and painted....

 

@ChadsPride needs to warm up his rattle can finger and go to town on that rear bumper

 

Those little $2 spray guns they sell at lowes/home depot are absolute bliss lol

 

I really need a spot to do it at.....dont want a bunch of bugs landing on wet paint/primer tbh

AND - its heavy as shit, I need help with it

 

Has one on deck!

 

If i'm in town for Christmas or something you can use my garage.

If not I volunteer @Toyboata 's garage for him
