What Have You Done To Your 2nd Gen Tacoma Today?

Installed a full size 255/75R17 spare on matching Rock Warrior wheel in the stock location. Did some precision adjusting of the guides using BFH.

 

I saw here or a vendors site somewhere but where or who was it that sold the ditch light brackets that had 2 mounting spots on a single bracket. Was thinking bout mounting cb/ham antenna on them along w/ ditch lights.
I can't think who it was for the life of me. Better yet are they even available anymore.

 

Lines aren’t limiting, at least 6 inches more before they are taunt, my leafs are my limiting factor. I don’t have bump stops, those are floating airbags

 

No issues off-road, just adjust pressure if you want more travel. I’ve been running bags with cradles for over 7 years

They are the Firestone bags

 

Replaced a lower ball joint. Worst thing I've ever done in my life.

 

How'd you press it out???

 

How them ironman tyres treating u

 

Rented the press from autozone, but the cups were not the right size. So after fucking with it forever I put one of the oversized cups on a jack and put it under the ball joint and put pressure on it. Smacked it with a 4lb hammer until it came out. It sucked.

 

Lol thats crazy you noticed the brand. They are awesome tires so far. Had them about a year and they are perfectly balanced. No vibrations.

 

I deliver them all day everyday.
I work for ATD and thats our number 1 seller

 

Also I heated it up with an oxy acetylene torch. Would not recommend. The fucker blew up and it sounded like a gun shot lol. My ears were ringing.

 

I cut mine off out of necessity. I was backing off a good sized obstacle (tip over challenge in Moab) and had a rock shove my pipe under my tire.

 

Sounds like something that you'd see in a CrossFit gym

I'm going to try it tomorrow. Have some LCAs that need the ball joint pressed out

 

Find the right cup, you'll need it, but the jack under the joint with a big ass hammer did the trick. Getting it in wasn't any easier. And make sure its completely straight when you press it back in, it can become cockeyed in there and fuck your day up

 

They're good tires especially for the price. All 4 mounted and balanced was like 750

 

How do they ride on the road? I’m on the road 90% of the time. Only off-road a couple times a year. Trying to decide between airbags and new leaf springs like HD Dakar. I pull fairly heavy trailer more than I off-road.

 

Installed the A/C knob mod, glove box organizer, and console organizer with tray. The owners manual doesn't fit in the glove box now so it's under the rear seat. That's the only problem with it for me.
And here's a pic of the dash cam I installed the other day:

 

On my to do list

 

I love that black ring! Looks great

 

Did you start with the full Firestone kit then just add the cradles? Or did you have to fabricate your mounts? This is exactly what I have been thinking of doing for a while, just haven't found much info on it
