    Sounds like a good time! Super bummed I missed it but I’m happy to support Madison and her musical ambitions.

    White Mt? How did the steep hill go in the snow?

    The initial hill wasnt bad, not much snow there but once you got to the top was where the real snow was at, and it kept getting deeper as the trail went on. Suicide Hill was covered in snow and we all 3 made it up, I probably struggled the most lol. But all the snow made it a little easier I think than the loose rock that normally makes it hard. @Shmellmopwho and @SoCalTacoTruck got a bunch of photos of the trip, I only grabbed some cell phone shots but it was really pretty up there. Fun trail to do in the snow. A lot of powder there now and quite a bit melting during the day made it really muddy and fun to romp around it.

    Wouldnt it have been easier to cut off mount and weld a new one? I must be missing something.

    Anyone know the size and thread pitch for the holes in the frame for the coilover reservoir mounting brackets? I've tried 4 different fasteners. M10x1.5 - didn't fit, M10x1.25 - didn't fit, 3/8x16 - didn't fit, 3/8x24 - didn't fit. Every hole I've found on the Tacoma is metric, but lowes doesn't carry anything M9 if there even is an M9. M8 is too small, M10 is too big. I've serched the forum, and google nobody lists it anywhere. Pretty pissed because I work every day for the next 4 weeks and this is my last day off. 2 hours and no fucking bolts fit.

    Are you talking about the ones that go into where your sway bar connects? Are those the type of resi mounts you have?

    Correct. Internets say M10X1.25 for sway bay holes. But I don't have the swaybar. and M10 is simply too large to fit :notsure:

    Well it appears to be M10x1.25 after all. I had to chase the threads out with a tap, but finally have the brackets bolted in. Thanks anyways, Ryan :cheers:

    Edit: What's your instagram so I can give you a plug for the sliders? :cookiemonster:
