    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I enjoy it, it actually comes apart if it's the spendy stuff. I got ARP stainless studs and hardware for the Z

    all it takes is the pointy end of something and 50 mph to puncture it.

    So that’s just how manual hub CVs are setup. They have a small c clip that prevents the tripod from falling off. So you tap the tripod downwards after removing the lower snap ring. Then remove the hidden c clip so you can tap the tripod off. Took a while to find pictures of someone rebooting manual hub axles. While I had the CV apart I compared every part to one of my broken CVs. Nothing looked off. So the CVJ axles went back in with Toyota grease, boots, and the boot slide mod.

    255s are too skinny, theyre non-committal big boy tires haha. 285s are decent, still skinny but adequate

    I ran 295/70/17 and now 315/70/17 on 7" 4runner wheels

    Tire chains might not mount them because the chart says you need 7.5" wide wheel :notsure:

    Doubt Wal Mart or most major tire places would mount them. At least they won't mount 12.50 wides on 7" wide. Not sure if 285/70R17 is wide enough at 11.2 inches to where you'd need to run lower tire pressure to keep tire wear even.

    If you purge from the side will it allow effortless 360's and drifts?

    Real clean! Definitely will serve you well, looks great with the mechanisms showing through the faceplate!

    Just be careful not to bash ur wrists on countertops. I was infamous for doing that and chipped the faceplates on most of my watches as a result lol

    Yeah I do the same. I have been trying hard to remember to take it off when I'm working on things to keep it from getting banged up

    I actually left my cheapy digital watch in her garage because it took it off for changing her truck's oil and forgot to put it back on after :homer:
