Yeah we're here and here....Maine | Tacoma World

 

Here she is.

 

Yes exactly, link?

 

That's a sharp rig. Great choice of wheel color.

 

Will these tires fit properly on SR suspension and based steel rims?

 

Got my Baja Design Squadron SAE’s dropped in the other day. Quite the difference from stock halogen! Also got the stage 1 interior LED kit from DiodeDynamics installed yesterday, huge improvement from stock.

Finally running full LED!

 

Yes, it drove ~3 hours to the place where I fixed it without lasting issue. Annoying to get up to speed, but once you were cruising on the highway it drove like normal, except the gas mileage got even worse (ECU likely defaulted into some very safe fuel mapping).

 

That looks really good! Did you go 2" in the front? Those tires look like 285's, did you have to get a CMC? I'm sorry for all the questions, I'm looking at doing the exact same lift on my AG as well.

 

Hey @DocKrease

How are you enjoying the SAE so far? Do you plan on adding any more aux light to the rig?

Best,
Bill

It has been a little while since I've been on here, but I found my way back, and I wanted to share my feedback on the Stromung "tucker" exhaust that I recently installed on my Tacoma. So far, I'm enjoying it. It's not obnoxiously loud. Has a nice deep tone that's not overbearing, and I like the fact that I get extra clearance. I plan on putting my 33" spare under the truck, and I won't have to worry about the tire getting too close to the heat shield. It's made of stainless steel, so hopefully it lasts a while.

The flange bolts were rusted to hell. They were so bad that it looked like they were welded on, so I purchased new ones since I knew I was going to destroy the originals while getting them off. I also purchased an OEM gasket that is designed for aftermarket exhausts. Apparently, Toyota sells two gaskets - one for the OEM exhaust and one for aftermarket. All the videos I watched said you can use the original hangers, but that didn't work for me. The tailpipe rubbed on the frame, so I purchased longer hangers.

Sweet jump seats! Do you have the grab handles like a Brat?

 

Third post third mod; updated the map SD card.

These mods could become habit forming. As soon as I figure out adding an avatar and pics in general I'll post em.

Installed these alpharex nova series headlight with the luxx tails both in alpha black

 

Sweet set up

 

mounted my new wheel and tire, but couldn’t get it to balance. Buddy say i have to grind down the inner barrel paint. So sticky weight stick. He even tried using black sticky weight too.

 

Adding mods causes eyebrow cancer.
