GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Negative. Still like the styling (and the pricing) but it’s just way more aggressive than I need or my build reflects.

Went with something a little more conservative. Aluminum high clearance Dissent Offroad bumper.

 

I got some new sport take offs with some nitto grapplers which are a huge upgrade over almost 20yo stock steelies, but what does everyone do for the broken center cap tabs? Buy new center caps cheap somewhere? They didn't seem easily repairable and I have at least 2/3 that are broke for each rim. Also I'd prefer some blacked out lugs.. Any suggestions? Thanks

 

Looking for more info also. My truck is 2 years old, and one of the center caps is already on its last legs. Dealer was not gentle with it when they rotated tires under the Toyota Care.

 

Check eBay for some center caps or maybe FB marketplace for some take offs. As for lug nuts I'd try and get the ones from SCS but they are always out of stock so I think you could get some Gorilla Lug Nuts

 

If these wheels are like the older ones, the SCS lug nuts will not fit.

Gorilla is the only aftermarket one I know will fit (plus some chinese knock-offs you might find on eBay.) McGard does make locking lugs, if you are interested in those.

 

Thanks for the info, it has the chrome gorilla lugs on there now, may buy some black ones from them. I’ll keep looking for a center cap solution but I’m thinking of some sort of 3d printed adapter I could glue/bond to the inside of the center cap. I see a few similar things online so far.

 

How long has scs been doing lugnuts? I don’t remember that as option when I got my wheels years ago?

 

For as long as I can remember, pretty sure mine were when I ordered my SCS wheels. They didn't come with them

I had these on my 4runner, until the Toyota tech decided to keep my socket! Unfortunately I didn’t find out until I was at the base of the mtn I live on. That was a hike.
Sucks to have a perfectly good spare sitting on your swingout that you can’t take off

 

Many many years. If you're unsure if you have ours or not, take a photo of the lug nut and send it my way. Our lugs are 8 spline so that's one way to tell.

 

This is super helpful to know. I'm not sure if the ones I have are SCS or gorilla, but a handful of them are absolutely thrashed and I need to buy some new ones. Would be nice to order the same, so I can make spares out of the remaining good ones.

 

I think I have a set up black gorilla lugs. I think I have 23. Not sure how I lost one. But if you are planning on getting locks then they will work for you. If you want them they are yours. I'll try to get a pic. They came with my methods off a 4runner.

 

What’s up people! I wanted to let you guys know I am jumping off TW. It has been a blast.
@BYJOSHCOOK has my number should any of you want to reach out.

I wish you all well.

i have their ned front and rear bumper coming. i am upgrading to wide fenders is the reason. i will also be adding some more stuff to the bumpers that they do not have like headlight hoops on the front and rear hoops to protect the bed sides. if anyone is looking for their hybrid front bumper with custom headlight hoops let me know mine is for sale.

 

They have done this forever when i got my first set of SCS wheels i got their lugs.

 

Hey guys, hope all y’all been having a great time with y’all’s family! I got a quick question, does anyone know of an outdoor range or a spot that I can go take my brother in law to shoot some rounds ? I’m planning on taking him maybe Tuesday or Wednesday

 

They are a dying breed, I used to have a membership to one in Palmetto Ga but i never renewed since i married into a family that has a private 350 yard range at the inlaws land 5 hrs away. At a quick glance there are no pay as you play outdoor ranges anymore. (all that i remember are closed) All membership based.

Maybe? i would call and confirm they will be open before you travel up there.

Sumac wma might be closer to you. Just gotta go online and pay for a $5 day pass. There are not range masters so you police yourself. No run and gun stuff but they have 100 yrds, 59 yards, 25 yards, and a small pistol area.
