Nebraska where you at???

Anyone know if any offroad shops in Omaha do alignments and would be familiar with my total chaos uca’s? The control arms have to be off to adjust caster so I doubt my usual go-to Firestone would handle it.

My wheels sit so far back and I want to go slightly bigger next...

 

I don’t know who the use for alignment, but Torc just put my suspension and armor on and they have a specific alignment shop they use for off-road. Might be worth asking them who they go with

 

I’ll check with them, thank you!

 

my damn suspension has been getting a serious workout this past month

they are ripping up Leavenworth by UNMC FINALLY and repaving
90th north of Maple they are still working on crater patching which is only leading to bumpity bumps everywhere
not sure what you guys newer trucks suspension is like but mine is still hanging in there like a truck not a Lexus

take a drive out on I29 just north of Council Bluffs, damn near went airborne over that stretch lol

 

I'll tell you one thing. The fancy continuously controlled dampers with pothole protection in my Fusion didn't do didley to save my tires. Some of those hits had my teeth cracking. My taco doesn't seem to give a single shit about any I've hit so far.

 

... just found out today that my truck is the first model year that the 3.4 can have a supercharger added
I am not much into super fast acceleration (slow and easy) so not sure about it, it would add approx 100hp and more maintenance lol

 

anybody from Lincoln or close to the U-Pull-It
they finally have an old Tacoma listed and somebody I know on TW is needing some parts
unfortunately this yard has NO pics of their inventory, don't wanna drive 50 miles for nothin... and back 50miles

might need to rotate view to the right
it was always cleared early Sunday morning this past winter by local plow (i assume)

 

i just learned of this DIY garage today located in Bellevue

any of you feel a need to do something under your truck?
i am needing to do quite a bit underneath myself that is better to use a lift
(i am having difficulty finding a suitable shop to do what needs to be done and am going to check it out)
....

 

Tacoma's would look better in here

 

anybody ever get any powder coating done at this place?

Who drives the white 1st gen with a prerunner tube bumper I passed on 72nd?

 

not I ... 72nd and what?
what did the front grille look like?
95.5-97
98-00
01-04

 

Ralston area, so around Harrison. Looked like your grill I think.

 

i usually go down 84th street, 72nd has that school at the bottom of the hill...
fines for going too fast in school zones are hefty (i have heard)
not that I speed around or anything

...
i did see a 1st gen white single cab carrying a bunch of dirt this weekend near UNMC on saddle creek
it had the 01-04 grille, i was driving the beater corolla, had to get new wiper blades

 

check it out!

If anybody has wanted custom plates that said "4x4 TOY" and been denied due to being already in use,
i saw the truck that has them today, a silver well-weathered Tundra around the vicinity of 680/72nd exit
i can cross that one off my wish list if it was onit already

...

record high of 95 today i heard

 

I've been MIA for awhile. Finally catching up lol

I had "4x4 TACO" on my Tacoma when I had it. Now my Tundra has "RKCRWLN"

I bought my Tundra from Corwin. I bought my Jeep from Baxter. Baxter is awful. I could go on and on about how crappy of a dealership they are. I would avoid them like the plague.

Toby @ TORC is a good buddy of mine, cool dude. Corwin, TORC, and Starkey Auto Care in West O are the only places I trust to work on my truck/Jeep(s).

Adam is a cool dude. DIY Garage is a neat place but i hate paying for basically just lift use lol.

 

so that guy i saw with the plates took them from you?

oops 4x4 TACO does not = 4x4 TOY

the jury will disregard that
in prep for my approval to Federal Jury Duty next month

do you have your own personal lift?

 

No I don't. However, I have a lot of friends that do

 

i don't have friends like that and needing minor underbody work, basically cleaning/rehab maintenance for now
need the box taken off the back for thoroughness
my mechanical aptitude is that of a jiffyLuber tech lol

have you had any coating done at trail performance in Papillion?
