Looks good! I need to find some time to get mine mounted. Did you go with 10* or 20*?

 

I saw Jason yesterday too, at the light at Bellingham middle school near the BP gas station. I was in the wifes car going to see Joshua.

 

I just did the side bolts I will do the drilling in the spring cause http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=8cT_Ulmcrys&desktop_uri=/watch?v=8cT_Ulmcrys

 

I went with the 10 degree option and love it. I can use as a step to get in but it isn't a pain in the ass to step out

 

The classes are the weight the receiver is rated to handle. I would go for a Class 3 if it were me. Factory is class 4 but you won't find an aftermarket class 4 receiver made to fit the Tacoma, they're generally for heavier trucks. I've got a Hidden Hitch class 3 and it works well, tucks up nice and clean to the bumper and was very easy to install.

They look nice, Billy

 

Morning

 

Billly, sliders are looking good!

 

I am fired up boys - just put a down payment on Eddie's soft top! got my rims tires mounted... just need to finish my bhml and grill... no pics til I am done!

 

Those soft tops are awesome!

 

Get pictures when you get it. You just going to pick it up since you're somewhat local.

 

Oh crap that's hilarious..I hope she can see the humor in it now.

 

Was traffic backed up then? I was heading to 495. I guess there was an accident in front of Dominoes Pizza, so I backtracked to Forge Park.

 

Cool cool, thanks man. I doubt I'd ever really get a trailer anyway so it was just something that popped in my skull seeing all the strap and hitch talk here.

 

Thanks guys it took about an hour to mount them I used a floor jack and a piece of wood across the brackets

 

If you plan on using it for tough recoveries, get an OEM receiver. They are very well built and pretty beefy. Recoveries put a lot of stress on the receiver. Any Class 3 receiver will do ok if it were put in the situation where a recover might be needed but if you really bury the truck and plan on using it as a tug point with one of those springy straps, the OEM would be best to take the shock.

 

Looks great Billy!

 

Who's Eddie?

No traffic at all. Flew right through.

 

Yeah I figure if one falls off a truck maybe lol..but with my 2 wheel drive I doubt I'll have to do that except maybe in this white angel puke!

 

Thanks Tony

 

You could prob get away wit a uhaul reciever
