Freakin Eugen...... of course

 

Ya, those racks are pretty tough, if there's no leaks or failure points it should be good. IDK what that rack is worth but I'm betting not cheap, mind you nothing about this hobby is cheap!!

I think I'm about to pull the trigger on the rock sliders and body lift

 

The oem rack is $1500ish. Could spend a bit more and go tundra rack that a member offers. Just debating on doing that for spare parts. I’m assuming it would just be seals, but still....nice to go to the part store, junk yard or dealer to get parts. Hard to do that with custom shit.

sliders and body kit are neat. As you said. Hobby is money!

 

First Jeep too in a TacomaWorld calendar

 

We don’t talk about it

 

Is this happening, supposed to be difficult? If so Im in

 

he hates the constant reminder that the Jeep pulled him up that rock face

 

I'd be down for that Ganaraska (spelling) thingy if you guys are planning one for this fall. I used to sled there all the time back in the 90's when I lived in the GTA. My lift kit might be installed by then...

 

Could just run an extension cord off your holiday plug (if you have one)

or get one of these and run if off your outside lights depending how much you use them lol

 

Fluid Film is going on sale September 15 - 27 at Princess Auto for 2 weeks, $74.99 for gallon instead of $99.99.

 

Caution, the light fixture may not sustain the higher current of a block heater. Light bulbs typically top out at 100W. Block heaters are, what, 900W?

Just use a block heater timer, like this cheap one from CT: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/noma-block-heater-timer-1-outlet-0528835p.html

 

Huh? 15 amps X 120 volts is 1800 watts. More than enough power.

 

The wiring and breaker can handle 15 amps. The lamp socket may not, since typical light bulbs don't draw anywhere close to that power.

 

Lot of lamp fixtures don't like bulbs over 60w and some 100w. I would use an extension cord.

 

Pictures of said hole?

Rokblokz XL provides max tire clearance, but has no overlap with the fender flare or fender liner

 

And here you can see the above mentioned Rokblokz doing their job

 

My windshield and side windows remained mud-free

After two trips to VMUTS, Ardbeg, and one trip to Minden, the RokBlokz flaps still look new, whereas the OEM rear flaps have developed tears.

It was those training tires he was running...

And we all know how he likes to baby his vehicle.

 

I went with Rockblokz XL

https://rokblokz.com/products/toyota-tacoma-mud-flaps-2016

They are like this flat flexible plastic that is supposed to be unbreakable , nothing for the tires to grab...

They don't really cover the inside of the wheel well area as much as the stock ones.
in fact they cover the inner part of the front, less to make more room for bigger tires.

 

How the Rokblokz XL mounts:



The lower hole uses an L-bracket and a well nut to attach to the cab mount. All supplied hardware is stainless.
