AZ BS Thread 4²0

Correct. Mine are a bit different than both of their, primarily the rear mount is different.. But yes. Exceptionally nice product. Some will gawk at the price, but they are definitely worth it

 

you are correct sir @tubbsisland has a bigger diameter test set but mine are the size that went into production, @JerryTaco got the first production set with the changed rear mount.

 

Headed up to Forest Lakes for a guys trip over the weekend. We were exploring some forest roads in the area and found a stranded GMC stuck in some snow. Got out the tow rope and snow shovels and helped them on their way. Turn up the volume the commentary is probably the best part.

Consensus on the "leaning tire" look? Thinking about running this way.

 

With the way your bed cage/shock mounts are I think it fits your setup well.

 

Not sure my lc would turn these....

Intrested in trading for 5 35 12.5 17 Cooper stt maxs. Less than 10k on them as well. Prob even less than 5k miles. Been on the Tacoma and it never gets driven.

 

So, I was going to replace my front suspension, my jack wasn't tall enough so I had to buy a taller one. Forgot I had my brand new tow strap on my tailgate and it fell off somewhere and couldn't be found. Then it got dark so I put everything back together and am currently eating my way through the depression.

And I used to carry a c.v before I swapped yo manual hubs and now I'm waiting for the guy at the store to not catch on that the c.v I'm turning in for warranty is a non c clip version. Buts its not too big of a deal with manual hubs.


What do you guys carry that you find handy?

 

Whatever is in my tool bag lol. A bunch of shit haha

 

Flat is more stealth, but angled looks pretty good. How's the rear visibility with it leaning up?

 

I don't mind the look. I do however think that you sold have more weight needing the axle. It will really help with the ride.

 

All of my tools are kept full time in the truck. Kind of a hassle for everything but automotive.

Replace high lift with floor jack,
Add tree saver strap, shackles, receiver adapter
Lower ball joints, outer tie rod ends, complete CV. Keep forgetting to order inner tie rod spares...
TP for the ladies or if I gotta deuce

No electrical stuff because honestly I'm not going to be able to fix it. I lost my OBDII scanner somehow

 

I see a lot of guys using regular floor jacks over hi lifts. How do you like it comparatively?

 

No winch here so I don't carry any of the winch type accessories

 

Still sketchy AF especially with a jack skid instead of wheels.

 

first aid kit

 

None here either. I'll use the tree saver as a bridle to pull on both recover points, and used it as an extension when we were really desperate for more length.

 

@RPS1030 is still typing his inventory list....

 

Lol. I was anxious to see his... I thought mine was decent but hell put us all to shame
