Teneighty's DCLB Ski Mobile Build

I should come out that way some time. I do have family in Dansville. Likely not close to you but if I do get out that way I will let you know. I won't mind checking out your truck in person.

 

Hell yeah!

 

My front drivers side 5100 is leaking everywhere... Going to have to pick one up soon. No difference felt in the ride just yet.

 

Demo ride

 

Dat rear flex...

 

put my ski box back on for winter few days ago... I like the change in look. Im sick of it by the end of winter then I get to take it off.

 

Looks good. Big visual changes are the best!

 

I digs! Great looking truck!

 

Thanks!

Hope to be adding a cap if one of the deals goes through... Not very promising right now

 

Love this truck! Partial to the bfg's but the tall skinny coopers are growing on me.

 

Thanks! Haha yeah, I really liked the look of my BFG's. I love these coopers. They do make them in the same size as my BFG's which had me thinking... Maybe one day but for now I'm loving these!

How do you like the new truck?! Any more in the near future?

 

I love it! Last truck I had was a 2011 silverado



But it was nothing but problems (torque converter, cam/lifters)

I got rid of it and bought a 14 Honda accord exl v6.



Real nice ride and pretty quick for an accord but not my style at all. (Bought it for the mpg's as I had a long commute)

Found out quick that my lifestyle requires a truck, which I knew but was being stupid. Enter the Tacoma.

Sorry, know you didn't ask for the history lesson....I digress.

Want to put a mild lift on and get some 17" Tacoma wheels, paint em black and put some white letter tires on. Bfg's or duratracs. Maybe some white knuckle sliders and a front guard. Yours definitely has set the example for me!

 

Well I appreciate it. I'm very happy. I have some upgrades and a few more things I'd like to do but I'm not in a hurry I guess haha.
I did the same thing, had a full size-traded for a car and hated it! Haha long commute but was worth driving my Tacoma. Now my commute is down to 6 miles round trip!
You'll find that as you spend more time and research you'll change your mind 1000x lol.

 

Glad to know that I'm not the only one who changes his vehicles when he changes jobs! Ha only had the accord for 4 months hahaha.
This is a great site with so much helpful info b/c of dudes like yourself. Maybe some day Ill post up a build thread. (I do have my bed LEDS)

 

Then it's already warranted!! Might as well start it now, it will be much easier too because you can just update it as you go.

 

Good looking truck! My build will be very similar to yours, im looking at the same suspension setup you have and i already hae the sr8s lol

 

Thanks for rubbing it in lol
That's sick! I'll have to check it out when you finish it up
Should look sick!

 

Didnt mean to rub it in lol im looking at the headstrong gb happening on here and its a similar setup to yours, and im looking at the cooper st maxx 255/85/16, so looking at your truck gives me a good idea of what mine will end up looking like

 

Excellent tire choice! You won't be disappointed. Good size too. The narrow tire helps with our nothern Icy/snowy winter driving. I like my setup so much better than stock and it has performed very well and was very cost friendly. I still do want to upgrade to some adjustable coilovers and shocks in te near future though.
