GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

I hear a lot of really good stuff. The only negative I've heard was the leafs were too extreme for some set ups. The constant load gave too much lift.

 

Yes I had that problem with an empty bed the ride in the back WAS a bit too stiff BUT I wasn’t too worried since I knew I was getting a camper adding gear and what not but the have settled in and I like the ride boss plus i got free recovery boards out of it so can’t beat that
(Don’t know if they any good but will let you know next time I get stuck lol)

 

Hopefully ya don't ever need them! Yah customer service told me to wait til the 1st for a Black Friday deal. Same with Dobinson. Choices choices.

 

Choices indeed but it’s all in your preferences and what you really do with the truck ya know?

 

I have put a bunch of Ironman lifts on LCs. As they are the leader in lift kits for those older trucks.
The Foam Cells shocks are nice, would get those over the Dobinsons.

Thanks for the input! Yeah with the sales going on I can get the Foam kit at basically the same price as the Dobinson nitrogen kit.

Now I am running the ProComp 5100 knock off with springs from a 3rd gen and a 1/2 spacer. My rear leafs have a small block lift but my leafs are totally flat.

I think the foam will ride nicer than the nitrogen on road and give solid performance the few times I'm off-road.

Just wish it wasn't Surge Soda Green for the coil springs! Ha

 

Rattle can that shit whatever color you desire! I prefer KTM orange
Dupli-color is my jam!

 

Love me some orange! Ha

 

Ehh I’ve gotten use to them now but I wish it would have been any other color orange would look sick! I’m planning on testing spraying one of my rims a dark bronze today see if I like it

 

I've been drooling over the SCS brushed copper wheels. But I love my TRD Beadlock's.

 

This fixed it. Turns out the lever is just REALLY tight - probably from corrosion. A bit of gentle persuasion with a big hammer freed it, then I got it jammed all the way into the engaged position.

I'll just leave in engage and manually unspool it if I need to use it. I can get it to go to disengage, but it's REALLY tight to get it there.

 

See them TRD beadlocks are nice I just have some 4 runner rims I got for free and rattle canned them black looks nice and all but 8 inch wide on 12.5 wide tires looks weird lol

 

Oh man! I'm sure it does. How does that drive?

 

It rides good boss but I have my PSI at 30-31 all around tires rides square! But like I said I want at least a 9 inch wide rim with some negative offset

 

Oh yea. Definitely taken for granted. So ready for this all to be over already.

 

It will over on November 3rd

 

Haha that’s what I keep telling the wife.. she doesn’t like it when I say that

 

Installed Passenger Side (Easy Side) Sliders that @TacoGoonin sold me and delivered by @zippsub9. It was easy (at least this side) did it by myself and taking off Nfab steps and install took about 45 minutes. One floor jack stand with some wood cross braces to hold it up until bolts where installed. NO other person or additional jack stands used. Ran out of energy and sunlight ( Because I was in the back yard with chainsaw cutting trees from storm) to get the other side done. Really like how they look! And thanks guys for your efforts to make this happen!

 

Went up to Blue Ridge to admire the full moon this weekend. Ran into a lot of this: A chainsaw was an absolute necessity. The trails were perfect other than the trees, didn’t see a soul out there for once.

 

I get the chainsaw thing but you cut this out enough to get through? Just one chainsaw? If so that's a lot of cutting! Nice!
