    I do, one of the ones that has brushes and no problem so far. But, it is in Ellensburg so there are worse things going through there than a Tacoma with a tent I am sure.

    I go to bellevue, so I'm almost positive they make an intern wash it by hand.

    Actually need to get my pressure washer out soon and then fluid film the frame. Anyone use Mavcoat before? Looks like it's nearly twice the price.

    285s are on. I guess a cab mount chop is in the near future. Going to go with BAMF unless someone has a better recommendation.

    Nice. I need to visit one of these days anyway. If not for a commitment on Saturday, I would be all in on the Gallagher run.
    Just trimmed a bit off the flares but I had already put a small tear in one.

    question fellas- upon hard acceleration from a dead stop my axle hops rather aggressively. i have a trutrac, 4:10's, deavers, and all archive componets with 12" kings. from removing the lift blocks i thought things would be better. but not so. feedback appreciated.

    Well....I wouldn't have the Snell/EXO Fab sliders, nor the skilled install of TC Ucas if it hadn't been for Jim!

    too much powa!!! :cool:

    If really serious about dealing with axle wrap, you might consider doing a Spring Under conversion.

    Otherwise a traction bar setup (either ladder or 4 link), but not sure how that affects off-roading ability
