    Is this thing on? Haha

    I've been buried in work the past month. I noticed I hadn't been on here in a while. How's everyone doing? Also, I've got a baby coming any week now and still need to get a CMC done - which I should have done in March, so if anyone can refer or can do it themselves, let me know. It's not a question of tools or skill, it's a question of time.

    You must have wheel spacers or different offset with your rims, I'm running 285s and I don't rub. Well my the mud flap some on the passengers side but that is mostly because one of the screws is missing after it got folder up between a rock and my sliders. :)

    Edited, I just noticed you're running a 2019

    Hey everyone! I just stumbled across this Maine thread. I'm from Farmington, Maine but currently am in college at the University of Maine at Fort Kent. I've been poking around and saw some posts about Estcourt and hunting way up here. I will say from my observations last year, hunting for deer is much better downstate but moose and bear can be quite good up here as well as birds. I have an 06' Access cab Off-Road with a 6 speed. Pretty much stock, it has 4 Runner 17's and I just ordered a light bar to go behind the grill. It seems that the license plate could be an issue blocking light but I found a piece on here that relocates it to the lower portion of the bumper. Does anyone know that guy? I have a few questions for him. Also, what are people using to cover up the holes from where the plate should go?

    Finally, If anyone is selling some gently used 5100's with springs on them, or stock third gen off-road suspension then I'd be interested in buying it. From what I've researched this is probably the best route to suit my needs on a budget. Just a lot of dirt road riding and bumpy county roads up here in and even in Western Maine when I am home.

    The first picture is the day I got it,

    Greetings, fellow Farmingtonian. :cheers:

    Is your Temple shot the Day Mountain Road, the Jenkins Road, or out past Varnum Pond? I grew up at the top of Morrison Hill (past Titcomb mtn) and used to spend a lot of time running around out that way.

    That picture is off of Jenkins Road, near Spruce Mountain. I know exactly where Morison Hill Rd is, and grew up skiing at Titcomb.

    I was driving out there with a 2wd Nissan back in high school and got hung up where there's a small brook crossing the road during the wet season, about 1/2 mile past that old camp that's right next to the stream, on the right as you're outbound. Took it at the wrong angle and only had 1 of the rear tires touching the ground. :facepalm: Since I was on my own and this was the era before cell phones I had to stack rocks until I could get some traction and back out of it, then move all of the stones back out of the way for another run at it.

    Welcome to the Maine Forum!

    I think for the license plate mount you are looking for @ACEkraut

    Yup, @ACEkraut was my first thought as well.

    Keep your eye on this thread. Good deals on all sorts of stuff, including suspension, pop up from time to time

    They're not OR but I've got some 3rd gen stock SR5 front coils & shocks. Had ~60k on them when swapped.

    I'd like the OR coils but thanks for the CL thread. I will get in contact with the guy about the license plate bracket!

    I found these in Rode Island for $150. Supposedly came off of an 18' Off Road with less than 10k miles. The only question is about the top hats on the struts. Can I reuse my stock ones or would I be better to just pass on these so I don't have to mess around with compressing springs? I have a friend who goes to school right in the same town that these are in and he could grab them for me.
