GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

That’s the shop I do all my work in. It’s ACC Garage. This is the place I want to invite you all to...bs, throw hatchets, eat bbq.
The owners of the shop are my close friends and wheeling buddies.. they started up the business, and I have supported them since.
I have poured more money and sweat into this place than I can count. Off-roading/camping is my jam, so I have built out all my trucks using their shop, tools and knowledge.
The cool thing is just how laid back everyone is and all of our skills come together to make some wicked rigs.

Your about to see 3 of my trucks get fully built there. I am doing the work with my buddy Z. We will be putting on Armor, Racks, Winches, Lights on all the stuff I bought on a BLACKFRIDAY that you so helpfully put together. Big Thank You to @KaptainH for basically living on this thread updating it. It’s because of you I was able to get a massive deal thru the guys @state48overland.

 

Heck yeah man- would love to come check that place out sometime. Look forward to seeing the builds. Will have to getup at some point.

 

Compressor is on my list, but mostly on the hypothetical one. Haven’t ever had to use one yet.

 

Who knows a shop in north ga for a throwout bearing and/or pilot bearing replacemnt for a decent price


Been going for a couple years but it sounds horrible now, scared to drive it

 

Haha damn that's ingenious! I like that idea, I plan on mounting my shit right where the spare tire is but I currently have a spare tire down there so it's on the back burner.....

 

just my .02 cents if if you are getting either one of those bearing replaced you might want to look at spending a little bit extra and replace the clutch (not sure the condition or age of yours). you dont want to have to pay some one to go back in there and replace it in (anywhere near) future.

I had a shop in Hiram do my throw out bearing after having someone else do my clutch earlier in the year. The shop in Hiram saved me over 200(compared to other shops) but thats a good haul for where you are.

 

time to get a swing out sir......

 

This is pure genius. So easy to fix/change if needed or remove if you ever sell.

 

I'd love to but trying to save some money so I'll just hold off for a while, I don't NEED an air compressor because any time I air down I tend to have somebody with me who has one

 

Installed my Icon AALs that I picked up from @iK0NiK not long ago. These did the trick for phase 1 of the tacos life. I wanted to get some use out of these Fox shocks before it gets KING long travel
Rides super plush and way better with the constant load I have back there.

Overall I gained 2” of lift with the leaf pack. I retained my factory overload as well, due to the fact I pull an Offroad/motorcyle trailer at times.
Thanks again West for meeting me for that leaf pack, your awesome.

 

Looking good Josh! I need to put my OL leaf back in. The weight of my topper has me squatting some.

 

Who'd be interested in a camping weekend trip January, February or March of next year? Figured if we can somewhat get a plan together we may be able to do one. Kinda looking at January or February because it's closer and I haven't been camping in months.

Let me know and I'll make a thread about it, no limit on trucks because I know of a few sites that can fit decent amount of rigs

 

Always interested, schedule always sucks- but if we plan enough in advance..

 

I am down, my schedule is flexible. I know you/Josh mentioned weekends are best for you.

 

That's what I'm thinking, it seems a bunch of us have shitty schedules but if we plan enough in advance people could get off if needed.



As for January it'd be late January so about a month and a week at the earliest just FYI.

 

As well as a few others, but if enough advance people could do it I'd think. Right now I'm thinking Friday-Sunday late January - March as a feeler

 

Gives me time to armor up! Depends on where we go, I am gonna bring some toys with me for us to ride around on.
BRRAAAPPpppppp

I put up a couple pics of the 2019 Calendar year, for those who would like a quick ref.

 

I'm game but I travel a lot

 

Wouldn't be any wheeling sadly as GA kinda sucks for that now. But if we go to Hawk Mtn you could drive around the FS roads in some toys. It'd be kinda drink/eat/meet/play games kinda weekend. Not sure about pew pews but it could

 

Tempted to ask what you're doing with that pro suspension but I know you ride your vehicles hard haha
