Or maybe 5.38 with bigger tires


Better than stock!

My manual (w56) Toyota pickup with 5.29 and 35” was perfect. I ran 37”s for awhile and they were great on the trail (5:1 tcase) but the truck struggled on the road.

 

My neighbor just bought and fixed the house next door..... Oak park in the house. I'll do your lawn too.....however, the house on the other side is a trap house...just fyi

 

Anybody looking for a matching spare wheel for a 3rd gen sport? My buddy got new wheels and said I can buy his stocks for $500. Im only really wanting 1 so I figured if I can find 3 other guys then I would buy them. Not looking to flip and make money off them so they would be $125 each. Idk if thats asking too much or too little

 

I mainly use it for unscrewing small stuff. Often I get started by hand to avoid stripping stuff, then use power. Reverse when tightening but finish with torque wrench.

for big stuff like lug nuts I have big 1/2”. It’s a monster so air tools would be better but with some clever extensions I can get most stuck things undone.

1/4” impacts are tough on bits and adapters b/c they spin fast. The surge is more constant power rather than jerky. I’ve snapped many impact rated 3/8” adapters with impact and I think a couple with surge but I’m not usually using them on the truck.

 

Wow, I guess so, as I'm 4 blocks off Salmon Falls and Green Valley. On Bancroft. Looks to be in the Winterhaven area. Southern edge, if it is.

 

Salmon falls is fun on the bike. Just be careful for the cars that drift in your lane or you will be flying over the hood. Had a close call one time when i was riding. Damn near shit myself

 

That road can be hella sketch! Even in my car I’ve had some pucker moments with cars drifting into my lane. Can’t imagine on a bike!

 

I was young and stupid.

Well, i guess now im just old and stupid lol

 

Thought of @Fernando today...

Didn't know you played the ponies!

 

Anyone who’s tryna hop into a Land Cruiser better do it QUICK before values skyrocket even more. Looks like it’s going bye-bye after next year for the American market:

Anyone know where there’s some Bilstein 6112/5160s in stock? Preferably prebuilt ready to pop in.

 

Did you try wheelers off road? Usually have a grip of things in stock.

 

@Twizted

 

If you haven't checked already try Down South Motorsports or Accutune.

 

I bought the last ones for the 1st gen

 

Hopefully your purchase is positive. They've screwed me and many other folks over, including several people who frequent this thread. Due to those experiences I will never do business with them again and would never recommend them. But again, I hope you have a good experience with them.
