Tacos in St. Louis area

Anywho, I emailed RCI to just give them a heads up in case FedEx claims the package to be lost.

 

My sliders were ordered with my rear bumper, I had them left at the LTL Freight Center in St. Charles, then went to pick them up myself. With such a large order, RCI strapped everything to one pallet and made my life easier.

@Willy224 's sliders came in seperste boxes. One box had all the hardware and such in it. Both boxes were trashed by FedEx. Sliders were ok.

 

I drove to Colorado and had my sliders put on while I was out there. I got to sit and relax while someone else busted their hands with that fun job.

 

Better delete some posts and try again. You don’t wanna be a Jeep guy

 

My favorite OEM alloys. That’s a wheel that’s aged very well.

 

Most of the 4runner wheels are only 7in wide so make sure youre checking that, best ones I know of are the 4th gen(03-09) 5 spoke. Theyre 7.5 in which will fit a 285 or 295 width and 3.75 in backspacing. It looks really good on the 5th gens and the tacos, especially if you get them powder-coated black. Will definitely need a body mount chop with them though.

 

Great point, also the 4runner Trail/TRD Offroad wheels are also 7.5” wide, so those are a great option

 

When you get them shipped to your door they put them in 2 boxes cause of the weight and leave them separate, all the mounting hardware is in one box, I'm assuming its the one still on the truck. they brought mine back the next day lol just call and complain today to make sure cause you definitely cant trust FedEx out of paducah, they're awful. Honestly for you the best bet would be to go up to Wagner moving and storage and talk to them about getting things unloaded there cause you'll save some money since they have a freight dock and if its just a pick up every once and a while they may not even charge you for it as long as you pick up same day. Solid peeps up there.

 

Definitely gomna look into that

 

Yea, the smaller backspacing makes it look like you're running spacers with how wide they sit but its just the wheel.

 

Excellent. I really don't want wheel spacers lol

 

I've only owned 2 Sheeps....

 

I had a CJ and loved it. Dead simple car to drive and service.

 

2 heeps too many!

 

This should be fun

 

Oh, it is. Let me know if you stick a bolt in the wall during the install.....

 

I almost bought one. It was in 06 and I was a young airmen who had no credit. Went to a dealership near base and tried to buy a used 04 and couldn't get the loan. Next thing I saw pull up was a sweet 03 access cab. They said the guy had just gotten it checked out by a mechanic but needed co-signer. Lucky for me he didn't put a hold so I wrote them a $100 check and off to the credit union I went. Came back later with my pre-approved loan and drove that baby off the lot. 5 spd, 4x4, TRD Offroad, 72k miles. Had it been a 4 door, I'd probably still have that thing.

 

The whole reason I bought my 06 LJ was they wouldn't approve me on an 07 Access Cab. Same exact price and all, kept giving me some Bs about "young men in pickups are high risk" as if a young man in a Jeep isn't high risk....

 

I probably would have enjoyed the Jeep but the truck became very useful several months after buying it. I moved from FL to TX and I was able to pack all my crap from my barracks room into the truck. Made some money moving myself vice having the military do it.
