DFW BS Thread : ********NEW MEET!! CHECK POST #1*******

Oops meant national forests not parks. I've been on the websites finding locations with dispersed camping.

 

4 hours of walking around in this shit is no fun at all. 3 more to go

It'll all be worth it in a few weeks when the truck gets a little bit of a facelift.

 

104 outside? OK. I obviously have no sense at all. I'm getting my sliders bolted up to my truck in my driveway this afternoon....
I am always short on free time, so this afternoon was going to be it. I was tired of seeing them in my garage every day just sitting there.

 

Just came back from a ride, it’s a scorcher out there man.

 

Definitely. I probably need to stick my underwear in the freezer for a while so my balls don't fry out there....
1 side done. Back to work for me!

 

Cold beer helps lol

 

Uh, seems the truck doesn't like idling in this heat either

 

Spend that stalking money on a CSF radiator

 

Engine ice broski

 

I’ve been up in Cushing burning tons of brush and wood. Incredibly hot

 

Aftermarket radiator isn't a sexy mod, but I know it can definitely help. I put a big Koyo rad on the Supra and it hid the blown head gasket problem for another year. The only other time I've seen the temp gauge rise like that on the truck is another super hot day at Bridgeport. I figured it was extra heat from using 4wd and transmission. I don't want 2 vehicles where I'm monitoring the temp gauge!

Man, that stuff isn't cheap. Do you have experience with it in the Tacoma or regular daily driver?

 

Yep. Definitely cheaper than overheating your motor!

 

We only do sexy mods here!

 

Finally swapped the driver's side CV Axle that I tore the boot on during our July 4th Colorado trip last night with the help of a friend....

Only took 2 months @Naveronski , but now I need to get a reboot kit so we can reboot this CV so I can have a spare in about 6 months when I get around to that....



But afterward, we talked about some future one-off projects on the truck... currently drawing up plans that I can hopefully start working on soon.

 

truck races on CBS right. Channel 11 dfw....

 

I miss Glen Helen.

 

We went out to Palo Duro Canyon this weekend for a quick trail run and camping trip.

First day was beautiful, but we had a crazy thunderstorm that night.
I big awning will be mandatory for the trailer.

Are any of the 10' options better or worse than others?
I'd really like a 270*, but they're just super expensive.
