Calling all Virginians (Tidewater area)

Oh! Haha! My mistake! I see you’re in VB. If you ever need some help, or just want to save some cash, I’d be more than willing to help. I’ve had perfect strangers on this forum help me out, and would be happy to pay it forward. These trucks are remarkably easy to work on. I did my entire install in my driveway last weekend, just watching YouTube videos. I just can’t do the bushing install because I don’t have the removal tool.

 

I appreciate the offer, man. The local Taco crew has been awesome so far, answering all manner of dumb questions and offering guidance.

 

I asked many myself. It’s a big investment, but definitely worth it.

 

anyone have a shop you can recommend to get an alignment? Preferably in VB

 

Personally, I was planning on going with a Firestone lifetime alignment. They don't do the very best job from what I've read, and a lot of Firestone shops won't mess with lifted trucks. I figure, if I can get one really good alignment out of them, keeping that alignment set with regular visits shouldn't be too big of an ask.

 

Also in SE VA.....hopefully with the covid stuff trending down, some of us could meet up.....would like to get linked in to the local TW folks.

 

If you haven’t seen it, the Facebook page is a lot more active

 

I'm on there, thank you !

 

Still need a part shuttled from Fredericksburg to Hampton if anyone is going that way.

 

Wish I was, man. Work has me chained to the south side for at least the next 5 weeks.

I ended up pulling the trigger on a full Dobinsons setup. I'm looking forward to seeing how it rides after installation.

 

I hope you will be satisfied.

 

Me too. This is the first time I’ve spent a significant amount of money on elective car parts, so hopes are high.

I expect the ride will be rough before I get the ARB installed. Heavy 730 lb springs with stock front end weight will probably be pretty jarring.

 

I can help you out. Located in Fredericksburg and heading down to the Hamptons soon. Send me a PM if you still need a TW express!

 

Thanks for the help.

 

Yeah. That will probably be stiff.

 

Is there a gear shop in this area for us that installs nitro gears?

 

Check out east coast gear supply. It's a few hours south in Raleigh but they are the go-to shop for pretty much the entirety of tacomaworld. I can not convey how excellent their customer service and craftsmanship is.

 

I can’t speak to their customer service, but they do ship fast. Placed my order at 2am today, package en route at 9am.

 

Hey all, I'm looking for a 285/75/16 tire to run as a spare if anyone is swapping out tires and would be willing to hang on to one. I'd pick up inside the 7 cities area.

 

Out in Suffolk riding my new Rubi around my family property. Beautiful day out.
