So run old shocks until new ones come in?

 

That's what he did last time, when shaft overextended because it's blown and pulled CV and blew his diff

 

^ so there is this.....I also don’t want to have to get an alignment twice....

 

Was that the final verdict on the root cause? Is the RH shock's free length now longer than the LH shock's?

 

Passenger side droops way worse. So I’m assuming the internal bumps are gone. Putting straps to make sure it doesn’t happen again. Save the shocks too.

 

You're aware of this $$$$ manual hub conversion kit? https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/free-wheel-manual-hubs-conversion.513930/

 

Not worth it to me. Just pulled apart two cv shafts. If I break something I just use the stubs and bam good to go.

Pumped to get out and meet you and ride with some like minded trucks, pretty much a Newb so also excited to learn

 

@Norilsk bring some spare rims and a tire or something. we can all learn how to pop a tire onto a rim with explosions

 

I would love to experiment with that

 

don’t want to speak for @Norilsk but I do recall discussing the search for tires to help inform/train others.....

 

In terms of tires, maybe we could try some tire shops, and see if they would give us for free.
Wheels, don't know. Worst case There is a junk yard around hamilton selling them for 25$ each

 

Half of Mike's garage is nothing but rims as tall as the eye can see. i'm sure we can find something there. heck pull off a wheel from one of the junked cars and call it a day

 

Think we began pulling some. Worst case I have been meaning to get my original spare out from storage at my uncles place. Been a couple years so who knows if it is there

 

I've had wheels already for that, but then I forget where they went... If anyone finds tire and rim - bring it and I'll demonstrate the explosions.

 

Jesus...you fvcks...about a year ago i offered 4 rav4 17" steelies for free. Crickets. Tossed at the curb gone in 60s

 

I have a set of BFG Rugged Trails in 265/70-16.

 

hey guys, new to this site.. Sounds like a good time! I used to ride in the Ganaraska all the time.. where are you mostly wheeling in here? West side on the main roads?

 

Hey! Welcome to the site! For the ganaraska we really go where ever we fit and where ever we are allowed. The dirt roads there are pretty easy in the summer, but come November time they become a bit more fun with snow. This is more of a newbie/social run so we don’t really venture to other trails in the area like hogsback and stuff.

 

effectively a mall crawl, without the mall or related parking lots
