Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

That's not bad. I spent somewhere in the ballpark of $1500

 

I'lll probably have them do that sometime next year. Text me their number and I'll save it to my phone.

 

Well, it's the tax for the difference between the trade in between the 2013 and 2011. All in all, probably looking at $1.5k-$1.6k in taxes as well.

 

RIP.

 

I didn't end up buying the Pelfreybuilt bumper. I believe its still listed on FB Marketplace if you're still interested.

 

Just bought some LED headers from vleds.com.

Received my interior/reverse/license plate LED bulbs yesterday.

/e: Damn, just replaced interior lighting and one of the map lights doesn't work. Emailed the vendor on Amazon, hopefully they'll shoot me a replacement.

Still haven't replaced the reverse lights yet. I also have 4 spare visor bulbs if anyone wants them. 2011 model doesn't have the lights on theirs.

 

I end up helping, or attempting to help someone who's slid off the road every winter since owning the Taco, the last attempt I didn't have anything to hook some of the smaller tow points on an older, low to the ground, sedan. What should I add to my recovery kit that would help in situations with less than desirable tow point locations? I couldn't even fit the bolt of a shackle through the small hole, nor was there any point where I could run my strap around the frame with how much the plastic splash guards on sedans cover. I was thinking, clevis hook with latch, soft shackle or a smaller shackle.

 

Was curious about that myself, think I'm going to buy some recovery gear here soon. Had an opportunity the other day, but I had nothing to help with other than tie downs and was in a hurry to the DMV.

 

Rhino Straps man. I may have a 15% off coupon code kicking around somewhere. I got the 30' 3" strap. And the Amazon review that sold it for me was a guy using it to pull a pallet out of a truck with a forklift.

Had those on my wishlist for some time now.

If you got a coupon code, lemme know. Maybe I get the rhino straps if can get it even cheaper.

 

I edited my post with the code.

 

It's very nice to try, but you can't help them all. Sometimes it isnt in the cards, offer a phone and a warm place while help comes if you can........pulled a rat rod out once.....

 

Was it AJ's? lol

 

I neither confirm or deny....

 

Got the strap + hitch. Since @Sociopenguin already gave me a shackle from the first meet I went to. Think I want to color that shackle he gave me red..

Very true. Gotta know your limits.

/e: Getting a replacement bulb.

 

Got myself something for the next camping/overlanding trip. Not exactly truck parts, but hey.





My patches so far. Got 3 I haven't put up yet though.

 

FYI, don't take your vehicle in for Maintenance while sleep deprived, stressed and overworked. You will pay for stuff you could actually do on your own!

 

Switched most of mine to the 2FangBus(4Runner). Headliner holds em better.
Still keep some in the truck though.,.....

 

Don't think I've seen your 4Runner yet.
