San Diego BS Thread.

Yes, Dan is a good guy and has always taken care of me. I didn't even think about getting them from him. Will ask first thing tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up.

 

Yeah, no worries man. He usually matches the price. Good luck!

 

1. 2.5" gave me the look/levelness I was looking for on stock springs. 1.75" had a slight rake in the rear. Wasn't bad but I'd go 2.5". There are lots of variables, like how many miles you have but being you have a Pre-Runner you should be fine.

2. Down South has a good group of guys working there and very knowledgeable. Their prices are fair as well but they are in CA so you will pay sales tax. They dont do installs though.

 

Have fun Jason. You deserve the vacation! I will report on the axle swap/brake redue tomorrow or when it's done.

 

I’ll find out, gonna check with another dive outfit in the AM and see what they can offer, I want to see the good stuff, after over 1600 dives stuff tends to get boring...do you know of the Cenotes you dove here??

 

Thank you, sorry the fix didn’t work, I was suspect about the shoe tab that was almost totally gone. I should have broke out the lights and made a tab tonweld on top of the old one!!

 

Wow guess what we have in our room!! Replenished every day if necessary haha!

 

The one I remember offhand was in the Tulum area connected to the Kalimba network part of the Grand Cenote entrance. Do you side tank? Lots of really tight technical offshoots that will blow your mind. Angelita and DreamsGate are both really cool as well...

 

Awesome I will check it out and yes I do side tanks with supplemental tanks in order to get more depth and use a triple redundancy system. That’s pretty much what I’m here for.

 

LOL...yeah I bet it's all the real brand name booze too....NOT

 

The mechanic just inspected my brakes and said your weld repair is GOOD! A brake line to the cylinder was loose and why fluid leaked out. New half axle order cancelled! What a relief. Nice to have another honest mechanic to fall back on when Jason is in Mexico!

 

I am home now and the brakes are good... including the emergency brake! It was so nice to find another honest mechanic who so could have taken advantage of me and done the axle swap, etc.

 

@Laggy2017 this is your local thread. And when he gets back take your truck over to @Speed Freek

 

I have completed my postings of the 6 DAY Baja Trip #7 Report (where my brakes broke)... See all the photos, maps, and details, here: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...tín-and-9-000-sierra-san-pedro-mártir.515492/

 

Damn, well that means made an error not double checking the lines after replacing all the hardware and the wheel cylinders in my haste and lack of light, my apologies David! I thought I had tightened them just before bleeding the system, obviously this was not the case.
Once I get back I’m building a roof and lighting so being dark won’t cause any issues, sorry buddy that’s pretty embarrassing on my part there is no excuse for those kinds of mistakes! I’m sure the tech went over everything, but I would be more than happy to go through and disassemble it all and double check everything! Especially since I thought it was all complete and it wasn’t, no bueno!

 

Ha. Yeah I’m sticking to the sealed bottles of Don Holio! All inclusive, lol!

 

Thank you!

 

Your welcome!
Just trying to steer people to the right places.

 

I really appreciate the help!! Without awesome people like yourself and other members I would cease to function!
