tx. valley tacos?

sounds like a nice set up...and those rims are the best thing money could buy

 

Do you guys find of wired that Frank Smith Toyota in McAllen has a La Paletera inside? And there's a guy shining shoes and a lady doing ladies nails.

 

Bert, I had a few in hand when I was down there......could of hooked you up. Anyways, post some picks of the install if you get a chance. I'm really interested in seeing your setup.

 

It's the Valle bro.....that is to be expected!!!!

edit: Except for the guy shinning shoes.

 

Will do. I just got word via email today that they have begun processing my order on the lift so hopefully it will ship soon. I spent this past weekend doing minor things to prepare for the install. Washed the underbody really well and considered painting it with the rustoleum underbody spray but I ended up just taking of my skid plate and putting a fresh coat the rustoleum stuff on it. I also took off my billet grill and put a coat of plastidip on it. I'm really pleased with how much of a differance it made. Slowing trying to get rid of as much chrome as possible.

 

YESSS finally! On March 18th I placed an order for my Fabtech 6" lift and its been back ordered. I just got word today via email that it has shipped and is expected to arrive on Tuesday!! Now to find some $$ for the install fee. I've spent close to $5k in the past few months on my truck and I'm getting tired of looking at my brand new wheels and tires every day in my garage. I CAN'T WAIT!!

 

hahaha that's whats up man! I bet you're anxious like a kid on christmas eve waiting for the lift to arrive.

 

Thats funny! Only in the Valley...

 

North Park Toyota in San Antonio has a paletera in it too but its hidden in the back.

 

Is there any good places in the valley to go bass fishing?

A canal, irrigation canal, reservoir, anything?

 

barely bought my taco..needed more room and a truck..i am from willacy county.sebastian.

 

Here you go: FINALLY!!!



Finally got my Fabtech 6" lift installed along with new wheels and tires. My truck already had a 3" body lift. Boy does it ride so much smoother I really needed the new shocks! I'm in love all over again!

I just want to skip work and drive all day now that its done! Time to take a trip out to the East cut now!

 

Nice work man! did you take off the body lift or leave it on?

 

Nope I chose to leave it on. I didn't want any rubbing issues with the bigger 35's and I have had absolutly none what so ever. I'm sure if I had taken the body lift off I would've had to trim. I love the height with the body lift! I'll just order some gap guards to make the open spaces in the wheel wells look better.

The guy (Brian) at this shop (B&B) in Pharr was awesome! You should see the Toyota Rock Crawlers that where on either side of my truck that belong to him. He really made sure everything went smoothly and put up with me showing up at the shop often to check on the progress.

 

Dang....truck looks badass with the lift and new Rim/tire combo. Now all you have to do is get rid of that step bar and put on some sliders.

 

Some of my other plans include adding an ARB winch bumper or similar, loose the tonneau cover and add a black tool box, CB radio, sliders, and getting rid of as much chrome as possible.

Oh and add the sockmonkey bedside decals i've had for a while including tacomaworld decal and texas tacomas decal
