New England Mod & Meetup Thread: May 17 at Jared’s!!

He looked it up by the VIN, correct? And you showed him the lines you needed?

 

He had the VIN, and I told him both rear lines going from the master to the drums, excluding soft lines.

Not sure how to be more clear.

Funny enough he did not forget a pair of lines, he forgot like two different.

 

@AllTacosFloat was the consensus that the sliders I got from you are Moab Fab? I am trying to find hardware for it. No huge rush as sliders won't go on till the spring.

 

Who was asking about bed bars was it @super_white

The bars i got from @AllTacosFloat and or @TacoTuesday603 in some combination or manor of things.

Tacoma Pocalypse. They're defunct now.

These are the specific rail nuts I used.

And I got some fender washers from home Depot. I think it's 3/8" fender washers.

Crisis avoided, soft lines came off with some heat. Very sketchy using mapp gas that close to the gas can.

 

It was me. The rail nuts that came with the bed bars are 7/16-20. I'll come up with a solution. I have other projects right now that need to get done before bed bars.

 

I use this for brake lines and small bolts/nuts when working on cars.

Claimed victory too quick. Started bleeding, master just kept going and going and soon enough I had a good puddle of brake fluid on the ground.

There’s a hole right by the soft line on the frame side…. Time to drop the gas tank.

 

Ugg, dislike. I have a spare gas tank if you wreck that one.

 

It’s out, wasn’t too big of a deal. Also good to figure it out before doing the 63s cause I’ll need to take it out for that.

It’s a little scary under there rust wise. Haven’t seen any holes yet but super crusty

 

What would you folks say is a fair asking price for my factory suspension setup. Might be trading parts for jars of moonshine. Been in talks with a dude that works at the place that makes



Along with other moonshine.

 

I think a fun game would be to take a post, remove who posted it, and see who can guess who posted it correctly.

I'm afraid this post would be split 50/50 you and I, but it helps that I'm still on my stock suspension.

You have F/R coilovers? Struts? Whatchu got? Facebook marketplace is usually pretty loaded with stock takeoffs i can see what I can find for comps if you want a hand.

Short answer - low but not insignificant.

 

Did you get Ironman? Kinda forget. Might be worth Keepin stockers for rebuild time

 

front UCAs, shocks, rear coils and shocks 30k on them

ya I did Iron man stage 3 foam cell. And honestly, when these go, which should be a long time, I’ll replace.
I have been thinking about keeping so I can go back if I wanted, but really don’t have a place to keep em, I got enough shit all over the place now.

 

Polls up! Let’s go!!


Figured we go to the one next to runnings but can change if something better is out there.

 

1/4 is Saturday.

 

So down in RI?

 

That's connecticut!

(yes).

I've been to this place before, pretty good setup. But we went I think either early or on a weekday or SOMETHING that it wasn't kookoobananas packed, there was basically nobody there.

NorCal sucks.
