Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

That was fast!

 

So should I upgrade tie rods since I'm replacing one or keep the factory ones so I don't put extra stress on the steering box? Ideas?

 

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the TG rear bumpers and I actually like the ARB's up front. You will be adding more weight up front though.

 

Then you're good to go. I would trade the front for rear then sell the front and buy a new rear or some skids.

 

Jay: I like the front TG bumper but not the rear.

Not a fan of the ARB

 

Awesome! Glad you got a replacement

 

i agree with Ruben. The main reason i don't like ARBs is how they mount, at least on tacomas its too flimsy unless you change the front mounting point. i also think they look to big and boxy. That's just my personal opinion, tons of people love them.

 

ARB looks too bulky. stay with the TG

I want your old truck!!

 

one bolt through the front of the frame and two through the tow hooks. trail gear adds a cross member and utilizes the factory bumper mounts. i don't have much experience with either, just checked a few out when i was building my winch plate and helped.a buddy mod his arb to get it a little more solid. To me trail gears seemed much more sturdy.

 

Mmmmm pork

 

Like mike said... It's too bulky and boxy

 

Looks good

 

They got their info all messed up on the site. claiming its both a 6 speed manual and automatic transmission.

 

your stickers and hood confused them

 

Checked out the local basketball courts around my new area, found nice courts with absolutely no people

 

That sucks man, I've seen people playing on them before maybe because school is starting back up they aren't playing anymore.

 

Nice! TW to the rescue!

As for my own damage:
-Ding/scratch on drive side rear door
-Bed Lights/Lamp not working
-Shattered my Back-Up Camera
-Dent on front fender
-Odometer illumination flickering ( goes from bright to dim on it's own )
-Alignment is FUbar'd. Going straight my wheel is turned to the left a 1/4 turn
-CV's spit out a crap load of grease

Going to replace my passenger wheel bearing tomorrow and clean up the grease and get an alignment. Hope I didn't bend anything. Also need to order up new limit straps.

 

Oh wow, Alex.

Pics?

 

Nothing to look at, just dings. lol More of mechanical stuff that needs fixing.

Oh yeah my P/S pump is leaking so I need to get a new one too.

 

I think they play during the day, I'm used to playing later but honestly this sucks. I might try out playing at Inshape but honestly life isnt the same
