Ontario BS Thread

Think you can travel 600km by ice road in one day? As an ignorant bystander, I’m concerned you didn’t give enough time from
Rock Falls to Attawapiskat, and return. 1,200km, ice roads, late Feb...eeek, seems too tight

 

That part will be bit of a gamble. I called up to Attawapiskat to book rooms and the lady I talked to thought 12 hrs would be pretty close. I know it all depends on the weather and road conditions though. The James Bay Winter road, the part from Moosenee to Attawapiskat just opened up to heavy trucks last week, up to 35000kg. So I'd imagine that part would be pretty well maintained. https://www.winterroadcompany.ca/

 

Good job inquiring with locals

 

Anyone interested in slightly used/abused 16x8 3.5BS wheels and 35s tires in here?

 

What have you done now?

 

All you need now is a new Tacoma and trailer and you're set.

 

*Still refusing to regear?

 

you installed a pro grille? what are you a mall crawler?

 

Haha, I put one of those on my last Taco, but it is kind of soft decor, eh? I drive a 4 Runner now, and the so called heritage grill is even more insanely priced than the Tacoma version. I’ve learned to love stock, and save my money for recovery gear. Haha

 

@tacoma16 is working on getting dually so we can tow both our toys , hurry up!

4.30 for life

Pro grille is so 2018, I do want the off-road grille that comes 0n 2019+ trucks....

 

you mean 2021 Trail edition Tacomas that are actually SR5 with some goodies but it uses an alternate version of the limited grille?

 

I meant this one

 

Easier to trim for 2nd gen bumpers, too

 

Interested, for a friend

 

Technically he already had one previously

 

your friend got nerves to to fit them? I can also part rims and tires, given I find buyer for tires first.

It's a $3600 worth set of 5 wheels and tires, I say I can part with it for 2K. They did awesome last night in the little storm we had up in your area, everyone was either in a ditch or driving like a moron under 20km/h with hazards on, it's like they never done IFR in their life.

My friend has in itchy mod finger, and new to him 4th Gen 4Runner V8. Wants to get rid of the soccer mom image it currently has. It won’t fit, but we’re working on a sale here.
Put up a side shot of #TurdGen that I can show to him, and the tire details.

As for 20km/h with the 4-ways on, no comment. Those city folks drive me mad. On HWY 10/89 When it opens up to 4 lanes, those folks stick to the left lane, still with hazards on. Apparently it’s safer to hit oncoming traffic than a snow filled ditch.

 

offff V8, tell him to check chains on that engine, they are famous for going bad at higher mileage.

here is me next to tires for ants aka stock



here is me next to raptor on 35s




here is me next to F350


here is the side shots




those wheels are scratched, so it's not a mall crawl kind of a set, let him know.

wheels are F5 with 3.5BS and -25mm offset

tires are 315/75/16 Yokohama Geolander G015

Timing chains have less than 100km on them now, he paid my buddies shop in Wasaga (Lakeside Auto) to do the timing belt along with the Safety.

Will send him some glamour shots.
