Yes.

Portsmouth Island.

 

Anyone know the thread pitch of the front cam bolt on the LCA? Toyota ordered the wrong fucking one and can't get me the right one until Wednesday or Thursday because it has to come from Japan. I'm running to fastenal tomorrow to try to find one that'll work so I can get my truck on the road. I've had a slew of fucking problems trying to replace these LCA's

 

Lolz. You didn't read around here about what a PITA LCAs are? Eccentric Bolts seize in the sleeve then you flatten the fuck outta your alignment tabs. It's fun.

No idea on thread size off the top of my head. It's metric though. You should still have the nut, right? Take it to Fastenal, go over to their larger metric size bolts and start trying to thread bolts in until you find the right one.

Homemade alignment is easy if you have any kind of eyesight at all. It's easy as hell to tell with big tires too. Wheel straight, then get out and check your front rims against your back rims. Should be able to make a straight eye line from front to rear rims. Make sense?

^ Front edge of front rim is where you are looking. Is that front edge of the front rim: 1. Level/Same plane with the rear rims. 2. Front edge sticking in towards bumper. 3. Front edge sticking out away from truck.

If you need alignment help, hit me up.

 

Whats with coolers costing STUPID money. Can't bring myself to do it. Found other ways.

I've got 3 rounded up so far.

1 - Coleman Personal 8 - Like it. From wifes mom. Is mine now. Really nice little guy.
2 - Coleman Personal 24 - From my mom. Bottom is bubbled up. Not really sure if I want to use it.
3 - Igloo Sport 25 - From Customer who was giving stuff away. Asked if she was using a cooler sitting in a corner collecting dust, said I could have. Nice rectangular shape, but no carry strap/handle is turning me off. Just the side handles, that are kinda small.

Dropping daughter off at her other Grandpa's today, he's got a lot of stuff sitting around collecting dust as well and is always willing to let me borrow or have an item. See what he has in the way of coolers.

 

Exactly what happened. I'm going to fastenal today to look for a bolt and I'm gonna just weld reinforce my alignment tabs tomorrow.

 

Anyone else get the E-mail announcement about the "Offroad event" at Toyota Knoxville on July 22. with "Bold Overland"?

 

Agreed with coolers being crazy expensive,

Walmart sells those *Ozark Valley* *"yeti knock offs" for about 50$ for a decent size. Also hold ice just as well.

 

Hey all, newb in mdl TN here. Was informed to chime in here!

 

Welcome! Where are you in mid TN? We have a pretty awesome bunch here, if you like wheeling and shenanigans, that is.

 

Welcome to TW. 2 things...1st, don't take it ALL that seriously, 2nd, hang on to your wallet!!

 

Actually not far from you at all. Over in Cookevegas.

 

I'm just across the Ky. line just north of Pickett park.

 

Nice. Spent my college career there. Still make it up to crawdaddys fairly regularly for food and beers with old friends.

 

*Ozark Trail, you mean

And their cheapest "performance cooler" costs $99, it's a 20qt IIRC

 

Oh yeah, you're just a skip away!

Yep! Awesome eats there, I also love World Foods which is literally right around the corner from them.

I have a friend of mine that works at Bonnell Aluminum near you, lol.

 

Ha, Thanks yes that's what I meant. Must of jumped up the last time I saw the price .

 

I also forgot to mention, I work at the local Toyota dealership so anyone needing parts I can get you the hookup on OEM stuffs.

 

$96, my bad

Welcome!

And don't listen to this guy. Everything we say and do is serious, unless it's not of course, but even then it's seriously serious about it's unseriousness.
