    It looks like some miniature with the angle next to the truck.

    lol thanks guys, I didn’t mean so much as I want to do the “in” thing, as much as If there’s something better, I’d like to see that. I wanted to do the chevys 5 years ago, so I wanted to see if that was still a doable option, or if it had been put out cause it didn’t work as well as people originally thought or something.
    Also asking simply because my leaves are FLAT.

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    Guys need help. Anyone close to greenville?

    BLUF, Car is just outside Greensville, NC and I need to get it to Chesapeake Va, about two hour trip. I don't know my options short of renting a uhaul and looking for help. I'll reimburse and pay anyone that can help.

    Background, a family friend went down to NC to bury their mom and cae broke down. They got a ride back but now trying to get the car home. They have no money from the funeral. It's the clutch and im fairly certain I can fix it.

    Hey everyone, relatively new to the Tacoma life, as of August, and living in Raleigh/Cary area. Very new to TW and am unable to post in the Buy/Sell/Trade thread so I was hoping I could do it here:

    Looking for a camper shell for a REGULAR cab Taco. Prefer white or black but any color will suffice. Willing to travel within 100 miles of Raleigh, NC.

    because the rear of the cab on a regular cab is more vertical then the Access or Double cab your search my be tough, the long bed AC and DC conform close to cab, so lean forward, those will hit a regular cab
    Reg cab shells are probably as hard to come by if not harder than the DCSB shells.

    thanks for the quick response voodoo, but yes I’m aware of the fitment issues between the 2 different styles. Unfortunately it seems a reg cab camper can fit a DC/AC but not the other way around. I’ve seen a few pop up on Craigslist but they go very fast and for wayyy more than they’re worth being used. I just don’t want to purchase one brand new and drop $12-1400 but if it comes to it I guess I will.

    took me multiple attempts to snag a shell for my DCSB for a reasonable price, just gotta be that guy at that time.

    Good luck !

    Hi. I will be in Cary for the next two weeks for work. But I will be off on the weekend, so I’m trying to see if there is anything going on, or if anyone has some recommendations? I will have my truck with me. Cheers

    Truck is too tall with the new tent so I'm thinking about selling the Camper Shell and Rack, PM for price if there is interest.

    Anyone know of any good aluminum welding shops around the Cary area? I'm restoring an older aluminum boat and need some welding done.

    Anyone that can Tig weld reasonably well should be able to do it.

    I dont know how bad she's leaking but Ive got an 18.5 foot aluminum skiff and the bilge kicks on about every 30 minutes and spits out a half gallon or so. Not enough to bother me I keep a landscaping hand pump on board in case the bilge ever goes out. I cant get to the leak without taking the floor out of the boat so it is what it is for now. Bilge pump is worth its weight in gold on an aluminum skiff...

    URE OHV trails (IDK about biking and horse trails) are closed for the Winter (Dec15-Apr1) but you can still go camp at some primitive sites and maybe the paid sites. There isn't much as far as legal trails here, you could check out the beach @Dangerdave or hit some "trails" like old 105(?) and Hurricane Creek in the mountains.

    Is anyone up for Carolina Ale House this weekend?

    Hurricane is shut down and gated now. Jackasses ruined that one for us all.

    the beach is open sporadically but not always. It’s such a mess at Freeman park that I’m not buying the annual pass again until they figure it all out.

    Gated, wow. I'm not really surprised.
