209 TACOS - B/S and shenanigans

Nvm... guess my soon to be ex wife wants come get the rest of her shit at 10a tomorrow.



Next time though, always wanted to explore 108 more.

 

Finally, hit the 500 mile marker for breaking in the new gears. Time to change the fluids again and put the skids back on.

 

@Blue Canary and I are planning to go back up for another day trip next Sunday = 5/2

 

Looks like no one going to be at Oakdale this morning. I'll be going straight to Sonora Speedway and then.

Oakdale is a little qays out of the way.

 

Second thought... looks like no one else is going.

I've got shit to do around the house (that I was going to put off) I guess I'll do that and go to the mountains next week.

 

That sucks, I would go, but I need to go get an axle from Turlock

 

Potentially in for next weekend. Need to crawl under the 4Runner and make sure everything is still tight

 

Nice, great beer and loved their pretzels and pork knuckle....

 

It is possible to wheel solo. For me it's not only possible but also more enjoyable. lol

I'm out for two reasons. One it's really far when I can be at local trails in 7 minutes. Two, my rig needs some welding love and a new rear driver shock tower that should be here Thursday.

 

I know it's possible. But I would have been putting off things that need to be done anyway.

 

I'll believe that when I see it.

 

Well... I put a first coat of sealer on one of the countertops.



Between 1st and 2nd coat I was able to help my buddy @foxrcing07 go get an axle.



Ended up getting a set of (heavy duty) Cevy 63s for 20 bucks while I was at it




I guess that decides what I'm going to do for rear leafs. Glad to get the 5 plus overload. Gives me a bunch of different combinations to figure out what's best ride/payload.

 

I know nothing of this axle you speak of

 

63s

What’s the axle? Looks beefy!

 

It may or may not be a corporate 14 from a cab and chassis so it should 63” wms

 

Perfect. I’ve got one too! I drag it on everything

Need to figure out a shave kit.

 

Although eventually it’ll self clearance right?



Although probably not advisable with an aluminum dif* cover...

 

New tires ordered... to be mounted Monday

Let's hit the trail next Sunday

 

I was on the YouTube watching this guy restore a old Toyota pickup and went to his site to buy a shirt.

He has plans for a 96-2002 4R winch bumper for $80.

Can’t wait for the high elevation roads to open.

 

14 bolts are not known to be ground clearance friendly. Maybe go up to 40's? lol
