MARYLAND TACOMAS

I’m at 88k and i’m on my third run of trans fluid.

 

Truth

 

I rode in that turd once

 

Might be pulling the trigger on those new scs ray10s when they drop. Due for new tires as well. I have 285/70/17s on there now and am debating if I want to keep that size or go up to 285/75s. I don't rub currently with my 887's and current 5.5"bs and -24 offset wheels. With the new wheels being 3.5"bs and -38" offest ,I'm assuming I'll have to do cmc and hammer the pinch weld?

 

i should have grabbed a few pictures while it was still up on the lift, the entire underside is destroyed. the front core support is almost bent 180*, im very surprised the radiator isnt leaking.

 

Dang that’s great! I didn’t flush mine until 125,000.

 

im doing mine this week at 150,800 or so. tis a bit overdue, especially since my trans cooler lines have been leaking for over a month

 

Eeeeek

 

Most likely, yes. If you need a CMC done I do them for local members for fairly cheap.

 

If I go this route I'll keep you in mind. Just need the keep banging out the over time to pay for everything.

 

Well whenever you're ready lemme know. $80 and I'll supply the plates and paint. Can have it done it about 1.5 hours.

 

Sheeeeet you got it.

 

Better to do it before the wheels and tires to just prevent rub altogether or do it after?

 

I prefer to do it beforehand. The chance of rubbing is so high, might as well. Same with trimming plastic and stuff. I do a preliminary clearancing, and then do more if needed. I just wanna be able to leave the tire shop without it being rub city.

 

True.

 

Just spent 4 days in Miami...What the hell is this weather I came home too!?

@EatSleepTacos Tires should be going on friday (Hopefully) Sounds like Gen 3's are hit or miss when it comes to fitting 285s, Seems like some guys fit them with barely any problems and it sounds like some guys have to trim and push everything so we will see!

 

Good luck! Sunday looks like nice weather and I have some gen 3 CMC plates laying around, so if you need one done, I can take care of you.

 

Are those my plates?
