strap them to the bottom of your bed rack

 

Monte, they measure 43'' x 12'' x 2.5''

 

Thanks a good idea!

i have bed lights though..

Nice! Thanks Colin.

 

Anybody here upgrade their power steering pump? Anyone able to point me in the right direction? Would also be interested in upgrading the rack if a bolt in application exists.

I burned out my OEM pump and just burned out the pump that I replaced it with. It has a lifetime warranty through NAPA but I don't want to keep replacing pumps once a year.

 

I know TG just came out with an upgrade. Im considering it as im bummping up to 35s and mine struggles some times with 33x12.5s as it is.

Edit: Crap sorry man, 1st gen only

 

My 33's are murdering pumps, I'm sure when I move to 35's it will be the same if not worse.

My rack has play in it, might be contributing to it. I have a replacement rack on hand, I just need to get around to putting it in. Might just pay a shop to deal with that one; I could do it but it's not going to be pleasant and if I break a high pressure line I know I'm up the creek without a paddle.

God damn what i would give for a truck like that..holy mother of suspension.

 

someone needs to come up with a nice beefy option for us. Im starting to look around since bumped up to 35's and heard about how brains ps pump shit out on him.

 

I know with 37"s I will be killing racks all the time so I plan on either building a slider for mine or jumping up to a big boy TT rack but that's big $$$$

Had a 2nd gen Tacoma behind me on elfin Forrest tonight around 5:00. White, long travel, front and rear glass, looked like a clean truck. Has to be someone on here.

 

rons?

 

It was me, awesome truck man! I had no idea that was you..It was leaning like a boat on that curvy road with that link setup. I event sent a pic to my roomie and hes like ahh I saw that thing on DR a couple weeks ago

 

figured it was your truck lol.

 

You're talking like a Howe rack or something right?

What's the deal with putting pressure to that rack? Do they make pumps that can be made to fit onto any engine?

 

I actually just replaced my rack and pump last night.

.



But yeah, I was looking into racks and pumps but didn't have money to throw down on a custom setup.

 

How bad was the rack? I've replaced the pump before, the rack looks like a PITA to get in there and disconnect the lines.

 

My rack was a PITA!

 

Any specific tools or techniques that would make it easier?

I spent the last two weeks on the road enjoying the truck, but the two weeks prior to that busting my knuckles on it. I don't feel like working on it, but I need to get in there and fix it.
