Northern Virginia Roll Call

Come on Dave! Have a little faith in yourself!

 

Who dat?

 

Full flared fenders huh. Same taillights that you have irrc.

 

Who cares who that is! Who are you?

 

I think we’re doing a thing next week.

Just got these in, time to see which is best for the trip.

Any pre-trip maintenance ideas? Probably gonna check/change/fill engine oil, diff oil, trans oil, steering fluid before the trip. Took one to CO/UT in December and everything was fine just want to make sure I’m not missing something before I put 6k miles on it in a week.

 

Your wife and my wife should have a chat.

 

It was her idea both times haha. I think she enjoys it because it's legitimate time together, no phones/tv/work/school/family. Getting a little deep, but her love language is quality time so it works out really well when we want to go somewhere that involves a lot of driving.

 

That's awesome. My wife hates camping. I try to get her to go everytime and nope. And I'm fairly certain she would loose her shit wheeling.

 

Your truck is 3 years old, I wouldn't overthink it. I prefer to not do a bunch of shit right before a trip because it increases the likelihood of something going wrong in some cases. All I would do is change the oil beforehand and check tire pressure. If you're going to be going offroad, hit all your suspension with a torque wrench.

 

That's exactly what I did last time.. not sure why I'm thinking more about it this time than last.

 

Yeah man. Just send it.

 

@iismatthew I just put two and two together and realized who you are from the NOVA Yotas page. This is Dave that ran NOVAdubs.

 

Anything could happen at this point....

 

Bought my first Tacoma last month, interested in joining NOVA Yotas. Just searched it on FB. Having second thoughts....

 

What a terrible day to have eyes.

 

Don't know this guy, but he's selling Archive relocates for a good price in Winchester

 

SMALL WORLD! I've noticed a few people from the VW world have Toyotas now.

 

Yup. I've run into a few from time to time.

 

Drove the 4runner into my backyard to weld on my panhard correction kit lol. Was super worried my landlord would show up for an unannounced grass mowing session or something hahaha


it was a bit tight and I unleashed a toolnado


not the prettiest, but its on there good. welded the inside too


Corrects the rear end geometry of the 4runners 4 link + panhard bar after lifting from this


to this. Axle is now recentered,left to right scrub on articulation is minimized with panhard bar horizontal, and corrects roll center. I've yet to drive it, but apparently it helps to reduce body roll
