    Looks badass Tallon! Pussy wagon fo' sho'!

    Are you gonna change your username now? 69chevy05taco - has a nice ring to it :)

    Off-topic, but maybe one of you guys can help me out here...

    I just finished up a Torque Spec "mega thread", and notice something fishy about the Rear Diff Diagrams from the FSM:
    Am I correct that the diagrams are switched around? If so, I will need to update the Descriptions and change it in the PDF as well.

    Hopefully those ubolts get to you quick Will. They all managed to fit into a small flat rate box anyway.

    Nah. They were sitting around. Glad I held on to them though. I'm the future I would say just look at a ubolt flip kit at some point. I'll show you what it is if I ever make it to another meet.

    Thanks man. Let me know when you get the engine thing figured out. I'll be down for helping load it up.

    Also, I had to scrap Oregon plans for last weekend. So I'm going this weekend. Anyone need anything from down the I-5 corridor?

    Paint a couple layers in red, en cover it in black over that. Wen it gets scratched, it bleeds.

    She sings worse than me

    I have to agree here too

    When I sold the motor and tranny out of my last car, the guy came up in a Nissan truck the same size as a Tacoma with a cherry picker in the back, and left with the motor/trans and cherry picker. An open longbed should be enough to get a new motor.

    You have my number and you know I like to drink beer with friends.

    You were impregnated by one of the prostitutes in Vegas

    UPDATE:

    The PowerStop rotors and pads are a solid improvement over the OEM ones. I have noticed this week that I stop somewhat in advance (maybe one truck length on average) than I had been previously. :woot:

    The amount brake pedal travel is the same and the tactile feel of the brake system is the same, but they seem to "ramp up" braking power better. The initial amount of bite is about the same, but after that the actual deceleration process happens faster. They feel more "progressive" where the OEM ones seemedmore "linear".

    :thumbsup: for Dan @ Wheelers and this brake setup. A very well spent $200 IMHO.

    I wouldn't mind going again...if I can ride-along with someone :p

    I would more or less be window shopping, but it's fun to get out there and see the badass builds and random crap for sale.

    Thanks for the update Andrew! :thumbsup:

    Sounds like a great setup. I wish there was a way to get rid of the "squishy" brake feel I have. It's always a drastic change when I drive the G/F's Sante Fe with Disc brakes - they are so damn touchy, I have to "ease" on the brakes.
