MARYLAND TACOMAS

No, I appreciate the candid opinions. I respect them. It definitely doesn't sound like my kind of place.

My problem is, I don't have a benchmark other than what I've seen on here.

I am equipping my truck with, in my opinion, some of the best products I can afford to make it capable of providing me with the opportunity to participate in activities with people I find very interesting.

I began off roading back in the 70s by riding dirt bikes. From there I moved up to a 1980 Bronco. It was equipped but nothing like I'm into now.

 

Oh, if anything Rob's equipped for anything. I have two Jerry cans. I will take them if I have to. I'd just rather not.

 

I use to have a 78 on 40's. It was a fun truck but it was too big for the trails. I sold it then bought my lifted 85 yota, that little truck would go anywhere.

 

Yea, we had similar trucks. Mine was on 40s or 42s. 6-8 mpg

 

I used to have a 1989 E350 ambulance with the old school 7.3L IDI lmao. This is my first truck though

 

A little weird, yet handy, on dates!

 

Here is an over view of what there is to offer, plus there is a lot more water, scenic stuff, and mud to be seen

Thank you Sir

 

Mine was black, it had a built 400M. 10" suspension lift. Alcoa wheels. Had a softtopper, it was a fun rig. At redlights people would ask how do I get in it lol. I have a pic of it somewhere.

 

Lol I ride dirt bikes so I’d use that for hauling bikes and gear around

 

Definitely looks like a cool place. I'm hyped to check it out

 

dude, used diesel ambulances are the best tow rigs. compartments for days, and usually maintained to a decent standard if you get one that was owned by a government entity. just gotta bleach the shit out of the back when you first get it.

 

Ordered my suspension lift last night Ended up getting OME kit with 887 coils and LR UCAs.

 

Are there really no good shops for this kind of thing in Maryland?

 

IDK man, I think most people on here will either do the work themselves or have a friend help. EDIT: Like I said, you might want to look into Wits End Fabrication in Hanover. They can install it for you.

 

ive heard good things about wits end, and IIRC Mobtown offroad is doing that kinda stuff as well. otherwise, its getting together with some TW members and knocking it out over a weekend

 

Those were the days! Life was so much more simple then.

 

Yea, sure you did good story.

 

There's always 4 Wheel Parts.

 

If you are not swapping UCAs the front can be done in a few hours - it's pretty basic stuff. Especially if the shocks & springs are pre-assembled.
The rear could be 1 - 4 hours depending on how you are lifting it.
Afterwards you'll need to take it in for an alignment and you'll be good to go.
