Where Have You Off-Roaded Today? 3rd Gen

New to this Northern California region and have barely had this truck a week so I've just started to look for places to have a bit of fun with my new Taco. Found the Chappie-Shasta OHV area and just went up for a quick scouting mission...

 

Drummond Island

 

Looking nice! You must have just gone onto dirt for the first time right when you took your picture, because your dealer prepped sidewalls are not even dusty! I tried to stop my dealer from spraying that tire junk on my sidewalls before I picked up my truck, I told them it was leaving for a long trip with dusty backroad miles in Idaho that week but they had to spray it anyways. I brought it back when we returned for some bed adjustments and they had a cow that I got it so dirty with so many squashed bugs and caked on dirt on the once shiny sidewalls! :0 they were mostly joking, but the wash guy wasn't I think...

 

Ha! Yeah, it was my first time on some actual dirt! Just made it up to the staging area on this trip. Got to check out the entrance to the two trails and find it. Its so cool because its literally 15 minutes from where I work, and 25 from my house and BAM you're on some really sweet off road trails! Looking forward to stretching out that suspension a bit more...

 

Wait!!! What??? I want to go there. I'm just down the road from there. Okay 3 hrs west of there

 

10/10, would recommend. But seriously, between Turtle Ridge and the 60-70 miles of ORV Routes through State Forest, its an awesome time.

 

Does going out to a job site count? 2 years in the making and we were finally able to start building our cell site relocation.

 

Nice truck. Whats your tire set up? Rims and tire size? Any rubbing on stock Fox suspension? Thx

 

Thanks. Open Country RT 285/70/17 Rotiform SIX-OR 17x9 only slight rubbing on the rear most fender liner...mainly due to the factory mud flaps. Other than that it's stock TRD Pro suspension

 

Man, thats good. Im on stock Pro suspension and 4Runner Pro Sema wheels 17x7 and I rub. Had to removed mudflaps but still rub a liitle smh

 

Send got or miss on some trucks, like my left rubbed more than my right front

 

Opposite here. Right rub more than left. I'm thinking of throwing on the Toytec 1/4 shims to bring it up 1/2 for the fronts. People have said it help stop the rubbing.

 

Gold Camp is a great area. We regularly go on Mt. Baldy trail just off the road. Great pics!

 

hmm, did you measure to see if there are any variances? So is it safe to assume that if you're rubbing more on one side than the other than the side that rubs is the lower side? I know seems elementary but sometimes w/ suspension it's the opposite thinking.

 

Did a little off-roading today up to Cerro Gordo, CA in my work truck. A visitor flew over and I snapped a few pic's.

 

you work in telecom too?

 

Fleet Services, up to service the genset.

 

Team Magenta here

 

I measure both side and they measured the same. Weird right lol.
