Long Island, NY Tacos

anyone on the island want a second gen rear plate bumper from brute force fab??
add clearance and recovery points, trailer harness and hitch receiver located behind the license plate
650

 

Ugh, if I wasn't in the middle of my turbo build on this truck- I'd be all over that!

 

thanks, bumper sold already anyways, lets see some of those Snail Taco pics though!!!

 

As you wish! Hoping to be done around Thanksgiving. Just waiting on an intercooler, AEM Boost gauge for the pillar, and gotta make some fittings for feed/return lines.

 

@dirtdigginjoe any plans for the rear end??

lol 4wd???

 

I'm the 2.7l 4-banger 5-speed 4wd. Gears are fine, as they're 4.10's turning some 32" Hankook DynaPro ATMs.
Internals are good to 400+whp. Clutch is to be seen lol. Most will hold 300, which is my power goal in the long run. (E85+injectors+pump)

 

Very cool! The 2.7L's are indestructible

 

@Paul631 you have a tan softtoper currently?? I think I saw you out on the beach two sundays ago perhaps?

 

Haha yes! I thought that might of been you, but I've seen someone else w/a modded green 2nd Gen out there... I'll be sure to say hi next time around!

 

I knew your truck was familiar but until I saw your avatar here on TW I couldn't remember who it could be...
your actually in this picture than if that was you, hiding in the reeds back there....





and here is a pic of some 2 guys I pulled out from being stuck on the same day...
always funny when people try and air down After they get stuck.


I should have taken a picture of the string he was getting ready to use attaching the two trucks together lol...

 

Nice pics!

A few months ago there was an guy in a new F150 a few people tried helping get unstuck... each time they began the pull, he'd floor it for like 10-15 seconds, re-burying it to the frame no matter how loudly they yelled at him not to, we finally just said good luck and left.

 

Moriches Inlet Saturday afternoon, bunch of toyotas out there again

 

I was gonna go out there, but I was working on wiring up my AEM F/IC-6! Grrrrr I wish I went!

 

All, I've decided to put my Tacoma up for sale. We have too many vehicles (according to my wife, I think we have too few), so decided to say goodbye to this one. Below is the link to the For Sale thread. If anyone knows anyone looking locally please let me know. Stickers did the suspension work on it. Great truck if you're looking to build out. Thanks!

Thanks for posting! (I have a distant relation with LI. My dad was born there, Mineola, and his dad was a Union plumber and firefighter. I have aunts/uncles that used to live in Williston Park and Montauk).

 

Nice yea if you're ever out this way don't be a stranger! next time we are in the valley I will reach out for your local tips... we are going to try and see if we can get a trip planned for when tioga is reopened. Will be keeping an eye on the winter seasons snow fall levels and keep open tentative flexible dates for the drive.

quick pick from last years trip:

 

Chinquapin! We are eagerly awaiting snow and ski season up there! We hope to travel that way as I’d like to stead my dads ashes up there... and be a tourist of course!

Doors always open here!

 

Hey everyone. I'm from Long Island, been living in Texas. I love it here, but I'm moving back due to career opportunities I just couldn't pass up. At any rate, I'll be moving up soon, and wanted to show you all my truck. I hope the Taco community in NY is as big as the one here in Texas. I'll be living on the north shore out east. Look forward to meeting some of you guys.
