GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

So guys.
Already got front 2.5 kings, 9.5xrc winch, incab controls ready to go.

Then cs-144 alt, Sliders, tint,

$91 viair 88p portable compressor kit (12V, 120 psi, forup to 33" tires)

viair 88p, Ez deflator, and front 25% tint when I get home.

For the next big purchase should I go

-Budbuilt skid set
-Rear leafs
-Rear Shocks (kings RR's)
-Retrofit with rgb rear mount halo and rgb demon eye
-Powertrax no slip automatic locker

 

Post up when you go, I may be in pending school and what not

Good list you got going, make sure you relocate those shocks or it'll be a waste of a setup. May want to throw the locker in prior to everything except skids. Assuming you still aren't stock back there

 

I had a great time at the AOP, hope to go back again soon!

 

You talking about the shackle flip and shock relocation?

And so get skids and Sliders then a locker? I'm stock but atm I've done a good bit with my truck with open diffs or does it help that much?

I believe I can do the alt, Sliders, skids and hold off on everything till a locker?

 

U-bolt flip you mean? Nah shock relocation, but u-bolt flip can go simultaneously.

Yes, you'll need those more than the locker typically. It's better to learn on open diffs so you pick better lines from the beginning.

Sounds good to me, rather have stuff that you'll need/use more than stuff that looks good. That's for later on

 

Haha, did it again. But yes, if I did one I'd definitely do the other.


True, guess I can wait on everything else. Want to be able to head out one day if I ever get home. They are talking now it'll be another 2 months before I'm home....

Pretty sure I asked if yall ever aired down before you hit the trail and yall said no, so air setup will be lower down

 

I've only aired down at Offroad parks. So only place in GA you may need it would be Beasley Knob

 

Howdy. My January and February are kind of crazy, but we'll have to meet up. I'm still rolling the stock setup, but I'm looking into starting to upgrade some things. I'll PM you once things slow down.

 

I think there is a thread somewhere for a Spring meet up that was put into motion last year. I'm sure we'll keep this thread updated too

Good to finally meet ya @Mudfootshuffle

 

Who this be? Spotted in the parking lot of The Wing off 120 this evening.

 

@4WTacoTRD

 

@BYJOSHCOOK , @bryanbyers28 , good to meet you guys as well! I have some video but left my gopro in Atlanta otw home. Try to post something up later this weekend or beginning of week. Now I gotta figure out how to drill my bumper and relocate that trailer harness

 

Glad that was the worst thing that happened honestly. Still suck, I'll post the few pics I snagged

 

If that harness bracket had to be smashed to get out on the trail I'd do it with a hammer before leaving the house. Not disappointed at all. Was relieved that was the noise I was hearing when I demonstrated how to make an off camber wash most difficult. I have video where you just cruise right over, then 6 minutes of me trying! Had a blast! ! ! !

 

It comes with practice plus I've done this trail like 6 times haha

 

Anybody excited for the Falcons?

 

My '98 Taco at our house in Habersham County.
