3rd Gen Quicksand thread

Thanks man.

 

Sweet. Grove Park Inn. That place is near and dear to my heart. Honeymooned there in 1996.

 

If they only made the turn signals amber...

 

Yass! Hopefully the discount is still there once I’m done with the move

 

It's over but I can hint of a something nice when I hit 5000 YouTube subscribers . Sub if you haven't and tell your Taco friends.

 

Great pics

 

How'd you get your roof black?

 

Ride or die!

 

Sliders skid and bumpers are all Mobtown, good guys great product
Over-cab rack is a Gobi Stealth, love it I prefer the basket style just because it gives me a false sense of security that things may not slide off
Bed Rack is an SOS pretty rugged, alluminum so it's easy to take on and off
Wheels FN . Tires 285, 70,R17, kinda wish I had gone with 75, R16, might switch
Rear springs are crippled angler expedition packs, they are awesome, though so far they need a lube every 10 days or so to keep em quiet, not the end of the world for me
Suspension is Toytech 2.5 Boss. Ride is great, and if you're only on the trail every blue moon it is probably all you would ever need. for myself I am deciding wether I want to swap em out for Kings or just upgrade the coils and kill em off first. The bumpers added a fair amount of weight and as a result I have some more body roll then I'd prefer 700 coils would probably be better for me

A pre=emptive strike on questions complete I'll go back under my rock

 

You have cable or rope on the winch? Rope is easieron the front springs. You may only need 650s. I hear 700s are really stiff.

 

rope,but the coils are cranked up about an inch above stock. I'm in no rush to swap anything out. I kinda feel I've put enough money into it for a while, and for where I live there isn't really any terrain to push ii. Here it is all soft sand, whoops. Thanks for the advice though, I already have 650lb springs, which is why i'm thinking about it at all

 

Love these retro stripes on the fender and door!

 

Parked next to a FJ to see how closely Quicksand matches. Not even close. Quicksand for the win!

 

I would like to pull up next to the "quicksand" to see how much difference there is to my "sandstorm." If Toyota still has the "quicksand" in 5 years that will be my next color on a Tacoma. And it won't be on a 4 cylinder either!.
