Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

at least you dont need a walker... yet

 

FIFY

 

I'll be ready if the time comes!

 

Thanks

Now I am getting a cane.

 

I might do that too, not for walking though...

 

Great minds think alike.
Get one for this weekend and smack him with it. Post pictures.

 

I like your thinking!

 

That masking paper looks familiar...

Haven't had a chance to use mine for the touch up spray on the rear bumper yet. I'll get to that after Tigerton. The roll was sitting on the table in the garage where I decided to clean fish, and well, I've been using it for that. Makes cleanup pretty quick and not as messy as newspaper.

 

Yes, best of luck tomorrow, Dan! Hope to hear some good news updates.

 

just imagine what you could do with that bad boy at tigerton. hopefully you are getting a front and rear winch to be the local recovery guy!

 

I can still hear you......

 

Thanks Dean
The news will be good.
You guys are stuck with me.
(pardon the pun)

 

Hoping for the best, Dan @Taco-Grinder.

 

We'll be looking forward to having you back on the next trip!

 

Thanks Rich

I'll be there. One way or another

 

If one of my favs still releases hard copies, I buy them.

Like Frank Klepacki. Have all of his stuff on CD and digital.

This has been me for the last ten years. Got in major trouble at work twice for it.

Everybody gangster with the accusations until I tell them to pull my medical file which is on file at work and it shows that I have actual genetic hearing loss. Then everybody ready to disappear before a lawyer comes calling for discrimination lol

 

Good luck Dan!!

 

Thanks Sparky

 

Good thing I gave you the
multi-purpose roll.

 

So, my tire situation has me down a rabbit hole...

As of today I will have four good tires and wheels on the 4Runner, and I'll be using one of the 285 toyos as a spare. So, I'm not in a rush to replace the mud tires. But, I am starting to think of my next steps with the 4runner.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with the Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ as my next set of play tires. The question is; stick with the same size or jump up to a 34 or 35.

I'm already considering a re-gear, regardless of what I do size wise.

I am also aware of the extra cutting, banging, and trimming I will need to do to clearance them.

I also know that the steering rack can become an issue with 35s and hard Wheeling. I am okay with this as well.

And, of course, the expected premature wear on bearings, bushings, Etc.

So, for those who are already on 35's (or bigger); is there anything else I should be concerned about?

@pearing , @BEAR_KNIFE_FIGHT , @Supr4Lo , any input would be appreciated.

If I decide to do all of this, it will probably end up being a winter project this coming year.

Edit: I realize the 4Runner and Tacoma are different. But, they're similar enough that I figured it's worth asking.


Edit #2: I'm also fully aware that I don't need 35's. It's just a thought right now. Plus, we all know there's a grey area between "want" and "need" around here.
