Let’s see dem Silver Tacos!!!

How the dangle did you muddy up dem tires and keep the rest of your get up clean? There's not even a blade of grass out of place in front or behind your tracks... voodoo witch magic I says!

 

Ha, this is after I backed up about 100 yds after falling down a slope. And into a ditch. And over a tree, small tree, but still ran it right over.
Backed up, parked it and said, "that's enough offroading for today, let's have a beer and stoke the campfire."

 

Classic

 

Are those painted t4r trail wheels?

 

Picked up the Trail Wheels of Craigslist

May be this isn't a place to post this but I just nailed two Bambies on the way to a fire call run. Anyone geting rid of their Silver Sky bumper, let's talk.

 

I know this is a long shot, but looking for a member on here driving a 3rd gen silver that was at OSH and Starbucks in Foster City, CA this morning?
Truck was in large tires, TRD Pro Grill, Pro Comp wheels, and had a tonneau cover. Truck looked great, and just wanted to know the specs. Thanks!

 

What did you use for the smoked fogs? New fogs completely/tint spray/film?

 

No smoke, just the lighting. They are Morimoto XB's though.

 

I just installed the same setup yesterday. Did you have any vibration after? I do when starting off (stops at about 15 mph) and coming to a stop. I can't tell yet if it's coming from the front or the rear. I've read a lot on here about how some people have to replace their needle bearing and/or shim the axle. I need to take it for a ride tomorrow and really get a feel for it so I'll know what to do to fix it. My biggest fear is causing any damage before I fix it.
Trying to find a smooth road with no snow, ice or pot holes is tough around here, so it's not as easy to diagnose as it would seem!

 

Did you get alignment after the lift?

 

If switching to 4x4 eliminates vibration, then it might be needle bearing, otherwise not.

 

I have a tiny bit of vibration on take off. The harder I accelerate the truck the more I can feel it. I have the ecgs bushing installed. With a go-pro on the frame I can see when I take off the diff points “up” for a brief second. Right around the same speed/ time I feel the vibe.

I’m installing new leafs since I tow every now and then and didn’t want to waste money or time dialing in the diff angle or center bearing on this current setup. I’ll post back what I end up doing when I install the new leafs.


BTW
Regardless wether you think it’s the needle bearing or not, do yourself a favor and get rid of it and do the ecgs bushing.

 

So clean underneath! My 17 is probably rustier than that.

 

City truck!

 

Looks great!

@Hstone556 Is that a Texas truck or did you put that badge on?
