New Mexico Owners BS Thread

I went wheels first for my truck cause I was still doing research on which kit I wanted to go with. I am actually about to pull the trigger today on ordering the Complete OME lift. are you buying new tires with the new wheels? if so would the new tires and new wheels be more than the kit itself? or about the same? i would go with suspension first though to be honest...

 

Wheels and/or lift will run me the same price. Give or take $200.

 

then it's your call can't go wrong with either! eventually youll have both!

 

I would say do the lift first. Then when you get your wheels you know the offset and size will fit accordingly.

It won't look too bad with only the lift for awhile either.

 

Just bought a complete OME kit from Head strong off road with LR UCAs!!! Also bought an Avid light bar as well!! cant wait to have it all arrive and get it all installed on my truck!!!

 

Hey Silas,

Saw a LT Tacoma parked at your work the other day. Any ideas who it is?

 

id go with a lift 1st, if you go wheels first your limited on the size of tire / wheel you can run.

lift FTW, it wont look that bad with a lift and stock wheels and tires. whereas if you get wheels and tires then lift you will not like the looks and probably go with larger tires

but what do i know i drive a car now ba ha ha ha

 

Hey guys! Been too long lol.... Finished up all of my ROTC crap and just have three more finals to go then I. AM. DONE.

What did I miss?

 

Hmmmm yesterday? Was it black and white with a black cab, fiber glass fenders/bedsides?

You missed an epic trail run Mr. Dehydrate

 

Yes.

Wut he said!

 

That is my co-workers, truck and it's a Mazda B3000 or whatever those ranger look a likes are.... hahaha

It is a sweet truck.... Just a lifted TTB set-up with widened front axles though. He wants to get coilovers pretty soon and be a real LT truck. It does look awesome... he recently relocated the radiator to the back for some trophy truck status. lol

 

I fixed it for you.

I think I need new glasses. Or he's done enough glass work to it that it is fairly generic now.

 

Yeah. re-badged.... whatevs

lol yeah complete glass bedsides, fenders, and hood with different style headlights

 

I got my CB antenna mount fixed up. Cost me a $0.26 nylon spacer and a bit of quality time with the truck and power tools.
