Ontario BS Thread

is muskoka part of the studded?
I know you normally need to be as far as minden in the east.

 

its beautiful but the hydro is insane. You can't win

 

Fuck, really? I always kinda wanted to end up moving up there.

 

omg I am dying for some...



I changed my vote for the camping spot, I dont care if I have to bounce off a couple rocks to have a nicer camp spot.

P.S. @Thyces

 

For all my third gen friends. Stock OR wheels are +25 offset.

Think its possible to run some 2nd gen offroad wheels 16x7 and there +30

I figure the 5 difference shouldn’t be enough to worry about.

Going for that retro snow tire look

 

^Yea should work just fine. 3rd gen front suspension is mostly identical to 2nd gen, so tire clearance to the UCA wouldn't be any worse. 2nd gen OR alloy wheels are pretty light for OEM wheels, just 20 lb ea.

 

I just got 4 factory alloys from 04 T4R for my 16 Taco for snow rims..dunno what the offset is, but gonna be styling

 

and lift is in.

more pics in the build thread on the last page.
thinking I might have a leaf removed eventually to get rid of some of the rake. can't lift the front much more or I'll have too much preload.

 

Yeah, I'm technically in N. Ont. by the Gov't rules.....Parry Sound District to be exact.... Muskoka = No studs. I'm about 6 miles north of the line.... Can have studs, but don't need them here at all..... In the north, a lot of Hwy's are not salted, just sanded in the curves. (studs are nice there).....I like that WAY better....

Hell, I don't consider this N. Ont.....I worked up north and this is as far south as I want to move......
I have to drive for about 6 hours north of here to get to the center of Ontario.....!! It's one BIG province..!!

Lots of Crown land on which to play with your rigs too...!!

 

And don't forget about the discounted plate sticker!

 

where did all yinz get your maxtrax? i got @NorilskSever 's bed bars on now and they need some.

 

It should settle I think, give it some time, plus you always have some load at the back.

 

I got mine at Blue Line Expedition, he is in Texas, had a right price back then. Shipped to my relatives in NY

 

I got a set of treds from a place in Niagara falls if you want them instead.

Come with a lifetime warranty and their nubs are supposed to last longer.

 

Looks good bud...got a before from the same angle?

 

I bought these ones: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Speedmaster-...cks-Sand-Mud-Snow-Off-Road-Pair-/172277705328

Haven't had to use them yet. I'll bring them to Ardbeg just in case...

Got new face, waiting on my FJ Toyota letters now.
I hate cutting anything on my truck, get heart attacks every time...

 

I'll be cutting tomorrow since my wheels are rubbing now after lift.

 

How much?
