Iowa Tacomas (Idiots.Out.Wandering.Around)

I think $2000 is usually the going rate +/- $500

 

Based on the 5.29 thread, yep. That seems to be par.

@OperatorOneNine I personally wouldn't recommend a front locker unless you just like spending money -- if you find yourself in deep enough shit that a front locker is the difference between getting out and getting stuck, you made some mistakes. If I want to crawl, I'll get a jeep.

Those are my thoughts, thank you for coming to my ted talk.

 

agreed. if ATRAC / CRAWL / MTS won't get me out, I f'd up and out come the shovel and maxtrax.

 

I'm still in the mindset of not buying parts just to have them. I want to buy functional stuff and I want to purchase the correct stuff the first time as often as possible. I agree with you both on a locker and wouldn't purchase one until my needs warranted it. I don't see that being warranted with anything I want to do in the near future at the very least.

 

that's what ive done. its so easy to buy stuff just to buy it because someone says you "need" it. I haven't done anything huge to my truck, mostly just tires and creature comforts.

Suspension is on the list for the spring through, its due for it now that I'm around 100k miles..

 

its due for me now that i am near 23 years
these local roads are horrid and have taxed it greatly the past couple of years

bless the Iowa roads & transportation department for finally fixing the stretch on I-29 north of Council Bluffs around 25th street, that is where i was going airborne it was so bad!
literally airborne!

 

Maybe you should slow down dukes of hazard

 

i was going 60 or so, the limit is 55 or 65 through there, and I have seen patrols on this stretch before

it was on a curve so my front wheels were turning while backend jumped and straight before touching back down off kilter

 

If you put on a fancy suspension, it’ll feel like you hit a pebble doing 90

 

i just have to buy the right suspension now,
the bolts are crusty too on there, but not seriously crusty i don't think

 

If you’re putting on a new suspension I think you can afford the $2 for new bolts.

 

I’m planning to just buy all new bolts. It’s like $20 and then I don’t have to care about the old ones.

 

Dammit beat me to it

 

first! suck it

 

its the taking OFF of the bolts

 

Getting them off is easy

Or just have a professional do it @Cav_BluTRD

 

fire removes lots of things.

Ask my truck.

 

You had to bust out the fire on your truck??

 

i approve
