Ontario BS Thread

Im ready for more. Just finished getting the cab dried/cleaned out. Removed all the sound proofing, that shit holds water...I dont think it would ever dry out. However, should prolly get a snorkle and starter only works every once in awhile lol.

 

I nominate @OrangeTaco101 to be added to that list. He flooded his truck 2 weeks ago.

@OrangeTaco101 "Doesn't look that deep"

This list could get out of hand.

 

@OrangeTaco101 welcome to the club

 

I picture you guys dressed like this now

 

Interesting how things change as you get older (wiser ?) 20 yrs ago I would have swam back and forth in my Samurai - of course it had no electronics and a wash and wear interior... My Taco still smells clean and is way more comfortable on a long highway drive...

 

I hear that loud and clear...

 

with the newly added weight of the backrack, i probably should think about the bed stiffeners now that i have 2 cross bars in use.
any recommendations?
i know V4x4, Total chaos, and caliraised have theirs - but was looking at this AthFab one. I prefer that tie-down bit to point towards the back of the truck so i can keep my shovel where it's at

Also need a 42 inch lightbar for the backrack

 

Your crossbars probably stiffen the bedsides more than the stiffeners can...

 

the cross bars have play in them, they jiggle around a bunch.

sort of thinking to prevent this since there is play in my system (which needs to exist so i can actually remove the cross bars with 1 person)

i guess preventative maintenance

 

I like the allpro ones. Probably going to order them soon

 

I'm surprised there isn't a rubber replacement for the carpet. And a non-absorbing insulation would be a good idea too I think!

 

actually there is, Toyota sells it even

 

That's neat! I'd rather have that than the carpet. Any idea on the price?

 

I can't remember exactly, but think it was around $700 price mark

Except those part numbers are not applicable in Canada, good luck finding it

 

Just drive over to the US with your 33s and get one?


I just tried to find something, it's a start

 

I am offended and request you to apologize and kneel before my 35s.
