Let’s see dem Silver Tacos!!!

Took silver out this afternoon to torque the suspension a bit since I just installed Bilstein 6112s and wanted to stress/settle the coils. Took it from the installed height down by 3/4" with some torque and 7" curbs. Max droop doesn't result in upper control arm / coil spring interference. zero offset 16x8s with 265/75-16s clear without issue in the back.

 

285/70/17 on stock suspension with CMC. Love this setup.

 

Stock 2021 Silver Sky on the Esopus River in NY. Came with mud guards, wheel locks, bed mat, and floor mats/door sill protectors. Added blackout lettering , black tailgate insert, LED bed lights, and replaced interior lights with LEDs.

 

Congrats and welcome

 

Not terribly glamorous compared to some of these beauty pics but it was a great day and will be remembered for a long time;
Christmas Tree Run 2020 - Tacoma excelled with no issues, up and over the snowy non-broken road to the sweet spot.

 

I’m liking the awning. Care to share how it’s set up and what it is?

Had a run in with a 4Runner.

 

Detail time yesterday......then an unexpected rain today

Thanks. I made it myself. I'm just finishing up a few things on it and will have a YouTube video of the build out in a few weeks.(Channel - Traveling by Tacoma) Its basically all aluminum and cost me about $120 with the materials and items I had to buy off Amazon (Tarp and legs) the rest I got from my local metal supplier. Its light and compact and the awning is 7' wide X 10' long. Here's a pic of it closed. I'm building a cover for it now.

 

I’ll keep my eye out for your video. I have been thinking about making a awning mount that I can raise and lower. Lower for driving somewhere far. Raise at camp. Thought about using 30/30 extrusion and having it slide and fold using the slots. have not yet got around to it but have a few renditions drawn out.

 

Waiting for the snow.

 

What is the idea behind half a parking lot bumper?

 

Beats me. It works though. I stopped haha.

 

I guess they can save money buying half parking lot bumpers than buying the full sized ones. LOL!

 

Well that was fast.
