Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Yup, used items like that on river trips. Notice the price? Thats getting into locker territory... Roto Pax water cans in the blem section are like $25... and I do need gas and food periodically.

 

Yea plastic is fine too. You could get creative and build a small raised platform over the tank that would be somewhere underneath.

 

Seen a guy here in town that has a length of 4 or 6in pvc bolted to the side of his rack like your roto's capped at both ends one having an air chuck to pressurize and the other end has a spigot, he says it holds like 7 or 8 gal.

 

HyTech?

 

It was entertaining to watch!

One thought on water tanks would be scoping out something from Class A Customs that could fit under the bed/along the bed rail. I’ve bought tanks for my trailer from them and they are good people to buy from. They’ll even do custom stuff if you can’t find a size/shape you like. They cater to the DIY van lifer as much as the camper builder so they stock tanks that fit over wheel wells too.

No Black Rim Powdercoating. The guys name is Matt and he does it out of his backyard shop in Sussex. About half the price of hytech and the others I called!

 

I think these are the ones @LarryDangerfield is thinking of

WOW that's pricey!

 

Not sure whats going on but my firewall stopped it as a threat.

 

Just a threat to your bank account

 

Sounds like someone who needs his priorities adjusted.

 

well I ended up cutting my fog light housings so they'd fit. Alpharex never got back to me after two days which I think that's there way of telling me to f off. Got them in today in my auto tech class I put a crappy snap chat picture blow. I will need to wire the harness tomorrow or sometime this weekend. I kinda got stumped there was this "position light" wire thing which I don't entirely know what that is but from the light research I did I need to wire that to a fuse that is only powered when the ignition is on. Side note my fog lights are slightly tilted upwards on the center side which I dont think should be to huge of a deal. Wish alpharex did a better job telling me they were in the wrong. Oh well another mod checked off the list.

 

I don't think those fender flares are original. I think the fender flares were only included on the GT-S trim. But, I could be wrong. I'm trying not to Google things.

Awesome vehicle, though!

Edit: mega nerd Google update:

Early '82 was the last of the carbureted 22R for the Celica. The GT-S came in August of '82 and included fender flares, but also coincided with the introduction of the EFI 22R-E. So, those fender flares are, in fact, not OEM!

I obviously didn't know all of this. But, I knew the fender flares didn't belong, so that's worth like half credit, right?

I'd still love to have that thing, though!

 

Nice! I’m just down the road from Sussex.

 

LOL what the hell am I doing with my life, not even close to done installing gear just like last year hahaha shoot me plz. Haven’t even packed clothes yet. But room for lots of tasty treats:

 

Calm down Francis you've still got two days!
OK 36hrs

 

More like 19 if I want to be at camp tomorrow night…

Sing with me to the tune of a Beastie Boys classic: NO! SLEEP! ‘TIL TIGERTON!
