Decisions on what bumper to get...ARB, Demello, Relentless.....

Mobtown offroad

 

Used my Tacoma to take a Gun Safe over to my Son in laws.

 

I bet that was fun thoe things are HEAVY

 

Just a small one #450 lbs. They loaded it at the store all we had to do was unload it = Gravity

 

Absolutely love this set up! Wish I could afford it!! Looks awesome!

 

This was a really big deal for me. I had to hold off until I could afford it and ordered it on a 20% off sale. This will be the ticket for us as it frees up bed space and when we have our tiny camper hooked up I can still access the bed because the swingouts are so mch shorter. Eddy makes a great product with a fast turn around. It is deffinately worth the wait.

 

Unboxed these and stared at then for awhile... Going in tomorrow!

 

THE AUTOMATIC ONLY HAS ONE CUPHODER OMFG! you're a brave soul.

 

Front first and rear later. I’ll check them out. Thanks.

 

Tweaked the ditch light mounting brackets.

Redrilled the mounting holes 1/2” lower.

After -



Looks way better with em sitting lower. Just need to re aim them now.

 

My 06 double cab auto has a total of 13 cup holders. 3 in front center console, 2 in the back of it, then 2 in each door.

 

^true story.

 

Typical 4 Litre,

Been putting off fixing the horrible bearing whine for a month now. Ended up buying the Gates kit from @RockAuto

There was no way I was changing out the full tensioner so I just did the pulley. Pretty simple job, best way to get it done is from the bottom. Truck is back to being quiet and no longer sounds like the power steering pump is blowing up. Original pulleys lasted 175,000 miles, they didnt start making noise until I hit a huge puddle at 45mph (abs & trac light turned on aswell). I feel like they may have had more life.

 

Crushed a deer Thursday night in my Tacoma and totaled it. Was to date the best vehicle I’ve ever had but got a tundra this time around. tacomaworld and all of you are awesome I will Always frequent this site !

 

I was looking on crutchfield the other day looking for speakers for my truck. What model are those?

 

I have an ARB front bumper on order for this reason. :~) Nice looking Tundra!

 

SOS front I got the aluminum with full hoops but they all look the same other than you have your choice of no hoops, a single hoop, a singal hoop with supports, or full hoops. They're pretty streamlined yet provide a great place to mount a winch and allow good access to it. If you are going to mount a winch I humbly suggest you also get the tie in brackets that go over the outside bumper bolts and back further on the frame for more support.



Eddy also sells frame reinforcing plates that beef up the frame where the bumper attaches. These are weld on plates but you also upgrade your mounting hardware to 1/2" grade 8 hardware.



And the bumper itself is pretty darn beefy




I made my own reinforcing plates and the frame brackets are from another vendor neither of which are absolutely neccessary but for winching they are some added insurance. Keep an eye out @SOS CONCEPTS has some great 20% off sales a few times a year which save alot. If you wish to contact him do it via email as this is a small shop that turns out alot of work and Eddy is usually working and doesn't answer the phone due to the noise. He responds to emails usually within a day.
