Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

What??

 

Reach up, you might be able to grab it as it goes over.

 

Can someone explain

 

Just a joke. Have fun out there!

 

Might go on some trails tomorrow if you want to roll with some not tacomas haha

 

The mountain is absolute chaos today. Of course it's their busiest day...few runs and beers and I'm out. Also, @RelentlessFab i still haven't installed the sliders. Waiting for slightly better weather and the will to also apply fluidfilm to my other stuff.

 

I have a bunch of stuff around the house to do but I’m using the snow as an excuse to not do any of it. Still have the Christmas lights up. I’m sure I’ll get an HOA letter soon.

 

They're early easter lights now

 

Same, save for the Christmas lights. Once Spring and some mild temps hit I'll get started, but then once it's too hot I'll stop again. *licks finger and lifts to the wind, yep, it's 5mph. That's way to high to mow the lawn today.

 

Got some custom sliders for sale, they're down in Reno getting powder coated right now should be done in the next couple weeks. They're for a DCSB or an ACLB. Located in Incline village. $850 obo

 

No gussets on the slider standoff tubes? Wouldn't trust those to actually protect the truck if you crawl it FYI

 

I bought them from a dude who made them, never dropped down that hard but I see what you're saying.

 

Since I’ll be joining you guys in the next few months I figured I’d ask before I buy some tires. Any of you ever used Yoko MTs or Toyo AT3?

 

@Kelvin
Welcome
We've ran 3 different sets of the Yokohama MT's, been fantastic. Recommended for sure for a street-able MT tire
Haven't ran any Toyo AT's before so I can't comment other than Toyo is reputable and makes good products. I do have their MT's on my Gladiator and no complaints, however I do have some other MT's that I've been more impressed with.

If you're looking between AT's and MT's, maybe consider an RT tire such as the new Toyo RT Trail. The new trail version looks very promising to me, I'd love to try them on a tow rig or daily driver where a durable/rugged looking tire is desired.

 

Ha, was originally going for the RT Trail but my guy is a bit annoyed with the tire shop he’s at and told me to just get tires online and he’ll put them on. Issue is I can’t find the RT Trail online. The Yoko MTs I can find for $302 in 285/75r17 which sounds nice.

This won’t be going on a DD so I’m not overly concerned with noise, MPG. All tires get noisy with age anyway. They’re for a GX460 which is probably just going to be a MTB hauler, etc.

 

@RelentlessFab one of these days I'll get your hybrid front bumper I wish sooner rather than later...since you're in sparks how much do you charge for a CMC?? Looking to get one on my 2017 tacoma

 

I’d also like to know on the CMC. I need one on the GX.

 

I believe relentless doesnt do CMC (I asked in the past) however here's a shop in Reno called Nate's precision that uses their CMC plates.

 

Do you know how much they charge? Thanks for the info! Trying to find the best price, so far I've been quoted in the 600-700 range but if thats the case I'll do it myself...
