NW WA Meet / BS Thread

Not if she cares about mpg.

 

Her current list consists of an Armada or a Sequoia, so a 100 series is a hybrid by comparison.

 

Well that sounds like a good lady you have.

 

P M me Howmanymoneys? I might know a guy.

I think I've seen this around before. In the MV area?

 

Yup, friend and I bought it together and it’s at his house down around there

 

First time driving the truck since i installed the starter in the türd. Feel gigantic compared it

 

Is anyone here a member of Issiquah Sportsmans Club?

 

Nope, i go there somewhat often though.

 

Seems nice and is fairly close to the house. Hit me up the next time you go and want company.

 

Will do i my suppressor ever gets here that’s where I’ll be sighting in my 300 BO. Where’s your place at? I though you were in Renton.

 

yep I am. Membership is 99/year. Outdoor range with pistol and rifle lanes. I like the lanes that do both 50 and 100 yards. The people there are all nice. Can get crowded on Sundays.

 

I am but it looked nice when I was there. Renton fish and game is only like 5 min closer since its in the highlands and im in Fairwood.

 

Gauging waters here. Have had some vibrations in the front-end of my rig since installing Icon Coilovers and JBA UCA's. We have eliminated all of the following potential issues; Toyota checked these due to extended warranty/TSB on the driveline:

• No shaking before/after install
• Shaking after alignment
• New tires slight improvement
• New carrier bearing, spider bearing and carrier bearing spacer installed.
  
• Drive line angle, 2.3 at rear differential, compared to 1.7 on another lifted Tacoma and 0.7 on a stock Tacoma
• Side note: Rear-ended last year but no symptoms like this were shown.

Vibration is still there after all of this and no findings yet. Didn't want to spend an arm and a leg having them diagnose at this point since they don't think it is something related to warranties/TSB. Anyone have any ideas of what could be going wrong?

 

That doesn't really mean anything. You need to know all the angles on the driveshaft.
Measure the T-Case angle
Measure the front shaft angle
measure the second shaft angle
measure the diff angle.

These need to be somewhat in harmony. Ideally your t-case and diff are parallel (no angle between them) and your first and second shaft angles are close to the same.

check my post here for ideas:

Does it go away in 4wd?

 

Just joined the suppressor waiting game myself for a 300 blk. Mind if I ask if you built your rig, or went with a complete platform? I'm still on the fence on which direction to go.

 

Get on a straight road and put it in 4wd and get up to around 40mph. Does the vibration go away? If so it's a bearing in the front diff and a very common problem.

Did you do larger tires as well with the lift? These trucks have really sloppy steering and larger tires amplify the spongy steering rack bushings.

 

Rifle? Built it myself. Suppressor is a silencerco omega 300. Talk to @scollins for all your suppressor needs.
