Hey man pretty much the whole group I wheel with run duratracs. I used to have BFG A/ts and they are a good all around tire. I didn't like them for off roading because they seem to chunk. After only two trips I have small pieces out of all the tires. Plus I really like the look of the duratracs.

The Duratracs are definitely noisier than the BFGs, but no where near a typical M/T. I didn't even notice much of a difference going from 265 BFG a/t - 285 Duratracs. With liners removed I noticed a big difference from 285 - 315 duratracs.

 

Well finished some stuff up and am now have some free time for sidework. Send me a PM with whatever you need from a simple cab mount chop, to bumpers, wiring, to suspension installs. Your on stop shop, lol.

 

Soon

Once I get my 33's, I'll need a CMC. Then bumpers, skids

 

No problem! I can squeeze in a CMC almost anytime! Evenings/weekends whatever works for you!

 

It's snowing again. If we have another winter like this, the OEM Dunflop craptecks need to goooooooooooooooooooooo.

 

Definitely going to look into an aggressive AT like Duratracs

 

Didn't get any pictures of it the other tacoma, but on sunday we had a wrench day with our group. It was a good time and there was a black long bed tacoma on a 3" lift that got some new Duratracs. Same rims I have with a 295/??/18 and did it look badass!

Been talking with the guy there for a while and I have to make it to a wrench night soon!! I wanna make it out to meet him as I think I am going with him when I install my new suspension components.

Looks fun!!

 

Yeah maybe I will swing out for one of these wrench nights, how often do you guys meet up?

 

He usually announces them on his FB page if you're on there Mark

 

Usually every two weeks.

 

I no haz the facebook

I wont have work to do, but I like to BS

Waiting on some shock parts from bilstein right now so may not make it in two weeks.

Early announcement:

April Fools Toyota Crawl
Harlan, Kentucky
April 4-6, 2014

Be there! Seriously if you haven't been to Harlan you need to come. From mild to wild there's something for everyone. And the mild parallels the wild so you won't miss one minute of action!

 

I have a couple of 40" Rigid light bars for sale if anyone "needs" one. They are brand new in the box, Cheapest I could find them retailed for is $1100. Trying to sell them for $1050, or $1000 if you guys are close enough to pick it up from me.

Anyone got a set of first gen rear leafs springs laying around after a lift install? A buddy of mine is in desperate need of a set...has broken leafs on each side.

 

Hey Peter, it's Juan...from the wrench night a couple of weeks ago. I read the posts above...my tires are 295/65/18 on 18x9 BFD's for whom ever was wondering. I'll be up there next time again....gotta chop and cut some more. Hope to you up there as well as some more Tacoma guys.
As far as who was looking into Joe for their parts, I'd definitely have to recommend him. Great guy , very helpful, great prices. Can't say enough.

Juan

 

Whats up man! yeah I will definitely be at the next one. I am going to have a few new upgrades at that point as well.

 

Nice. Can't wait to see them. That Baja you got is sick as hell!

 

When and where is the next wrench party? About the only upgrades that I am interested in is breather extentions and maybe cruise control. These damn single cabs come with NO options.

 

next mods are replacing a crawlbox bearing and twin sticking the tcase

 

I'm assuming Carol Stream but I'll let the host confirm it. ...need more tacos. We were out numbered like 8 - 2.
