Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

All right new plan

Five spare tires on five spare wheels in the bed of your truck and you just follow him.

 

Somehow I have recently acquired 16 wheels/tires. I can make this happen!

 

Do tell .. .

 

Marketplace is a black hole! Two sets of 35’s, set of 37’s and OG 34’s. 16’s, 17’s and 18’s. Silver, black, bronze and grey. It’s like jewelry for the truck. I can match my wheels to my outfit. I think I spent about $2k for all wheels/tires. The 37’s were the only used set at about 70%. Rest were brand new.

 

Lmao they would fit! But I do think I'm good!


Also on the topic of a hitch spare I found this on marketplace for cheap

It's not a swing out but would work.

 

not that way!!! lmao

 

Hitch carriers are just asking for trouble

 

Why? Its just a tire. If i can do this a tire is fine.

 

Bike hitch carriers are just asking for trouble

Eh too much bouncing for my laste. Plus if you look at one wrong it'll bend

 

While I agree with you, I won't be doing any wheeling with it. Worst part will be the Dalton for 500 miles. I'll have plenty of ratchet straps with me as well so I can limp it home if needed.

 

Shimming the receiver and using one of those hitch tighteners (whatever they are called) removes almost all the bouncing.

Also having a rack thats properly sized makes a big difference. Ex: the rack-n-ride i have vs a crappy aluminum hf rack

 

AND you lose points for the gram

Not a bad approach though

 

hey its cheap and it works! just shim it up like sacrifice said to and boom all good to go and for 75 bucks after the trip if you dont want it... either relist it or scrap it.

 

i would like a carrier like what you have but atm all i got is the crappy hf rack... i hate that damn thing so much!

 

I saw this one but since I'll be camping for 38 nights, I don't want to remove the spare every time I want to open the tailgate and the way my camping gear is set up, I need to open the gate to get in the fridge. I found a Wilco in Batesville, AR for $400 brand new in box. Might road trip down there to get it this weekend.

 

thats fair and thats not a bad price tbh especially since wilco thinks the stuff they make is now gold

 

Yeah. Then sell it when I get back for a few hunsky's. Might be a better market for it in KC than podunk Batesville.

 

ya someone might want it tbh. they are useful i loved the wilco gate i had!

 

Then maybe you can buy this one
