DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

you should just host a hangar install party! ill bring bacon because everyone loves bacon

 

Going to need more than just a little bit of bacon lol.

 

i did not specify the amount of bacon good sir

 

Just knock the rivets out and rehang right?

 

but seriously tho i havent ordered the HH yet so its at leavt 8 weeks till i get them... but if you are willing to help i would happily compensate you for your time/skill/help/sexyness

 

i mean if its that easy i was just speculating

 

Nice, I was an intern there during one summer back in college

 

Question for the Dallas area members - where do y’all recommend going for getting work done on your Tacoma such as:

1. Schedule maintenance
2. General fixing etc.
3. Modifications

Sorry if this is the incorrect place for the question, I’m new to forums. I would appreciate direction on the correct place to post if this is not it.

Thanks all!

 

Some members use Tandem offroad for all kinds of work and installs.

 

Thank you!

 

63 swap, cheaper and better results offroad and towing.

 

Depends what part of dallas your in but like jason said, Tandem is a great knowledgable crew.
Baertrax is not bad either.
Stay away from 4 wheel parts if you can
Or always ask for help from some of us

 

please elaborate

 

Gotta do a shock relocate, too, no?

 

Pretty sure that's a yes along with new frame attachments for the Chevy 63 leafs.

 

Cut off front and rear hangers and get the kit from ruff stuff specialties.
Get leaf springs from an 88 to 2012 Silverado and put them in. Get 14 inch shocks and extended brake lines.

It has more up and down travel and tows way better

 

Would that set up maintain my 6” lift?

 

Not in that truck recently. RIP

 

Meh, it’s kinda gone downhill since then

For the 25k included service I’ve been going to longo in prosper and have had good experiences so far. I plan to do my own maintenance once that expires.
For mods and anything else, I would take it to tandem. They only work on Toyota’s and know the platform.

 

I have those autospecialty on outback. They’re a bit spongy, significant downgrade from Subaru oem brakes. Also non-wear areas rust super fast, so looks like crap. Might want to paint.
