GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Looks like a HPS silicone intake tube.

 

Yup. HPS silicon Intake tube

 

Just finished watching this weeks Game of Thrones from campsite. Get on my level

 

thats what you call, "ROUGHING IT".

 

Yep. That tax really sucks. I wrote down the names of the government officials so that I could write them after I had to pay it, but never actually did. Apparently, US Mail is the only way that I could find.

Doug Collins - Congressman
Saxby Chambliss - Senator
Johnny Isakson - Senator

I was really pissed and think that tax is complete bullshit. I can see if it you are buying a car, but to move to the state and start contributing to state income tax and pay a huge penalty up front is just greedy.

Someone start a petition and I will be the first to sign it.

 

Im going for sure brother! Let me know where we meeting on friday morning!

 

Was it worth the $170?

 

I’m ready to start wrenching on my truck this summer once I’m home from college, but it looks like I’ll also have another project to mess around with....Me and some buddies picked up a 1993 jeep yj 4 cylinder for $1500. It was having a missfire, but we got that fixed and it runs great now. Only downside is that it has no 3rd or 4th gear, needs a hell of a lot of body work, and it needs some frame and body patches because of rust. Plus we have to fix the mistakes of the previous owners lol. It’s gonna be a fun summer.

 

Finally got around to installing these. The TW camping trip really helped with finding parts that suited my needs by talking to all of y’all.

 

Very nice. I am sure the ride quality is sweet. Let’s us know how it rolls

 

@zippsub9

Thanks brother, I actually bought a set of those but returned them. They are incredibly well made. I am cutting for 40s right now and completely go through the original mounting location where these sit. I had to cut both front mounts and shift back 3”. No one over 5’10” can ride up front now and no flip flops authorized Fred flint stone style.

Hey Brian, I am about to install my OG Eng Dual Battery Setup.
About to order Batteries...I see you went with a group 35 up front. Any issues sliding that jammer in?
Was debating two group 34s or rolling with what you have.
Thoughts?

 

Group 35 fit perfectly. I think youd only be able to fit a 34 in the front battery location. Its a tight squeeze in the extra battery location.

 

You mean only fit a group 34 in the rear location? You wrote “only be able to fit a 34 in the front”. Was that a typo?

 

No. Off-grid recommends two groups 35s. I'm running two group 35s.

From their website:
*The recommended batteries for this system are the Odyssey PC1400 Group 35's, Northstar AGM Group 35's or any other high quality AGM Group 35 battery in both locations.*

A group 34 in the rear location will probably be hitting the wire harness bundle since it's longer. My group 35 is already really close

 

Gotcha. I appreciate the clarification.
I bought my setup awhile ago, and have been debating a few things.
A friend of mine Jay @state48overland just reminded me about using a Redarc BCDC Charger, to fully top off my AGMs as well as having an integrated MPPT controller for solar.
Thought I would share with you:

When I first watched that video, I was a believer within the first few minutes.

When it comes to dual battery setups, I'm not an expert by any means, but if anyone has any questions, feel free to shoot us a DM. Happy to help out or at least get people pointed in the right direction.
