Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

i know josh can weld and thats about it lol

i dont know everyone in here all that well tbh

 

god no gonna make me throw up i love lots of vehicles but god that thing i cant stand... damn suv with a birth defect..

 

Just say: "Need welding work, will pay in cash, beer or other means."

 

He very likely is better at MIG than I am. But 'ain't nobody can shake a stick at my stick... I do plasma too. The cool fire kind, not the gross blood kind.

I guess I do the gross kind too. But whatever.

 

lmao i gotcha i need gussets welded on my spindles and new cam tabs welded on because of big o tire smashing mine flat.... then after all that my marlin crawler frame brace put on thats all the welding i need done.

 

ya i know i dont normally ask for help on stuff i just talk about whats broken lol

 

I'm good at stick, MIG and okayish at TIG. I can also acetylene torch weld and braze.

 

That's some work. Listen, ily bb, but I'm no pro and I don't want you to die because I'm dumb sometimes. Let somebody with good MIG experience in on that opportunity

 

So, what isn't broken?

 

I have just started practicing TIG brazing for a project. Have you tried it?

 

ummm

the radio works
the heat works
ac works
motor seems okay lol
wheels are fine
lights work
winch works
i think airbags work but never checked
abs now works
locker works sometimes lol
transmission still shifts sorta but kinda ruff (my fault thou)
tires hold air lol

a lot of my issues are front end related and then i have a few with the rear end also with suspension but idk what it is besides that it clunks randomly and that the locker doesn't always engage or disengage

 

ya thats my problem ive asked a few in my family and i kinda get the same response about it... im gonna ask a buddy of mine if his shop can do it for me but i forgot to msg him

 

Brazing with a TIG? Only welding. I was the tail end of my welding course and I didn't get a lot of machine time with it so I'm not super confident. Foot pedal control is not my jam.

 

Sounds like just the right amount of character for an SAS. It'll take care of your front end woes, at least. Probably add new ones, but the others will be gone.

 

thats the last thing i want to ever do tbh i dont like tacomas on a sas setup they look goofy as all get and its not what i use my truck for so ill be staying with ifs

if i wanted a solid axle id have a jeep tbh

 

That thought process sounds far too rational...

 

i know it dosent make sense to loads of people on here but thats my thoughts id rather sell the truck and get a jeep if i wanted a solid axel lol hell they even get better mpg then we do on 33s-35s

 

I really have no room to speak, my truck is still essentially stock

 

Jebus, I work late one time and there's 14 pages to catch up on....

 

lol ya back when i had my light setup and my 31s and slimline bumper tbh i really enjoyed the truck it was great for long trips because i would still get close to 20mpg and i still had good power but i started breaking things and slowly upgraded things to where i am today and now its a bit overbuilt for what i do lol
