Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Wifey gonna let you buy it??

 

I don't think zip ties would work on this spot. Its the interface between the flexible and the tubing at the wheel.



The clamp holds this union to the anchor bracket.

 

Absolutely she will as long as I don't tell her . She'd probably get more pist at me about the guns then truck parts. She just can grasp the concept of you can never have too many guns.

 

I know what it is. my lines are zip tied to those brackets. send me the link to the clips

 

I'm hoping I can sell my icons to a friend before hand hat way I have money to buy kings

Thanks man! I thought about those. But the price of some decent ones and I'm just under half price of a better roof rack lol.

I wonder if anyone makes quick connect roof mounts.

Edit: front runner does. But $$$

 

Anyone that could TW express this towards Sacramento this weekend? I want but I can't make it down that way for a few weeks.

 

Well besides the Prinsu bars coming quick from CBI, they also sent two packs of Rack bolts, free.

Now I can change all of the original side anodized bolts to the new black ones. Thanks CBI! Lol

 

What are you adding the bars for? Missed it if you posted earlier. Have not installed but trying to get an idea what else I need to order.

 

Mine was an early model that came with the standard skinny bars. They aren't very sturdy and flex a lot with weight. Added two of the newer 'HD' bars (now the regular bar' to help add strength.

 

ah gotcha. Mine just came so sounds like its not needed.

@jberry813 you ever find out if Toyota makes a inner tie rod tightening tool?

 

Spotted from my treehouse

 

indeed, no second guessing there.

 

Would.

 

in for this answer. I just crank it with a pipe wrench

 

I used vice grips but it came loose the other day. Freaked me out. Wish I could get a crescent on it. Maybe @JLee can design and cut us some wrenches out of 1/4 plate. with a slight bend to get the handle away from the truck. A crescent head is just to big to fit.

wouldn't one of these work

 

came loose with the washer bent over the flat spot? whoa

 

Yep. I think it broke the two little tabs that go into the rack cuz it just spun.
