Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

You mean there's another way?

 

Photo below is how this one mounts up. Not much room for back & forth, and even mounted upwards as high as it goes it hits the crossmember that supports the bed and can't go higher. Vendor says what I'm seeing is normal so I'm fine with it - will try to smash on some rocks like Jason said and even things out a bit. Just dropped it off at the Blast Shop (our local powdercoater), should have it back in 7-10 days so hopefully before the next Tigerton trip.



Ordered some new UCAs too because I don't like wondering and worrying if & when the SPCs are going to shit the bed if they haven't already. Heading to the tire shop next.

 

JD Fabrication, 0.75" offset version for use with stock LCAs. OEM inner bushings which are known to last for a very long time. Ball joint isn't a "uniball" but instead is a EMF solid ball joint which are known to be pretty heavy duty.

 

better yet... dont use Zelle.. or Venmo.. unless you are in person. online people tend to use them to scam people since theres no buyer protection and its designed for friends to exchange money.

 

I thought everything knew this

also if you disconnect the spindle from the uca, you dont have to mess with the lca bolts or ball joint bolts.

 

Seen a video of this. He used a floor jack and a trailer hitch to compress it. Was waiting for the ties to break.

 

Offroading by braille?

 

Okay, if this is not allowed, please delete.

Wisconsin crew. As some of you know, I have a summer business working on bicycles for camps in the Northlands. I also sell fleet bikes to these camps. I am a Haro Bikes dealer. Haro Bikes

I have an over stock on Double Peak Trail bikes... Double Peak 27.5 Trail – Haro Bikes These are not a really high-end bike; however, they are not spec'd at the bottom either and are a great entry level race bike or solid trail bike-good offroad and on the bike path. I know most of you have champagne taste, but maybe you want your family or friends on something that I consider good quality at a good price, or that $5000 dream bike is unrealistic, so here is an opportunity.

Originally when Haro listed these they were going for $900.00 and then they lowered the price to $800.00. They also said they would be spec'd with Shimano BR-MT200 hydraulic brakes. They arrived with the sum of all pond scum Radius hydraulic brakes... So I ordered and upgraded all of them to either Avid BB5 or BB7 cable brakes (a $100-150 upgrade.) So... I am sitting on a lot of these bikes-all sizes except XL. Only in the black color. Special for you guys at $700.00 assembled. We will figure out the delivery part-you could come north and visit. Go wheeling and try a bike too... Anyway, I really need 35's and this lot of 30 bikes I have left (I bought 60) is in the way of that objective (guilt, guilt...) I will sell them to camps but not until next season now; so, no worries, just thought I would throw a deal out to you guys and see if I could help some TW friends out too. Let me know.

Don't tempt me with a good time....

Obviously

Ain't nothing wrong with SPCs

Reported




Mostly for saying "delete if not allowed"

 

Is that a pet peeve???

 

Works for me. Not so well for my bumpers, but...

 

Juuuuuuussssttttt a bit.


Like, only a little bit though.



No big deal.
















Well.....
















Come to think of it....

 

Whoa!!! Sorry dude. Did not mean to incite a nuclear reaction... Seriously. Sorry.

 

I thought so too, until there became something wrong with them. No longer a fan. Anyone who still loves them can buy my old ones cheap in about a week’s time.

 

Haha all good. I'm just messing with ya (mostly)

Are yours messing up?

 

@LarryDangerfield needs a bike

if I didn’t already have 2, I’d prolly pick one up
