2wd BS and SoCal meet ups and Tacoma fun

Some growl at all speeds, turns into a howl at highway speeds. They're only a half step away from being mud terrains, physics won't allow them to be OEM quiet

 

KO2 installed with no issues balancing or other problems thus far.

 

Arbi, I would be down to tag along too. Let me know if you plan a trip in the near future.

 

I'd be in to get in on some 2wd action! Pretty new to everything, mainly just have been doing little BLM trails to take me to some campsites. I'm in the Long Beach/Lakewood area.

 

toyo open country are my goto tires.

 

Nice man thx glad to see and hear that because I had my heart set on these tires

 

so what portable air compressors/portable battery starters do you guys carry in the trucks? I want to get this https://no.co/gb40 and someone recommend me a decent portable air compressor under $75, i see a bunch on Amazon, just dont know which to get.

 

Look down at the bottom of the page for the link in products discussed. The viair

 

oh crap man, always thought those were ads, didnt know they were discussed in the thread. awesome.

any thoughts on this? https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/...essor/hv40a2/4683301?q=tire+inflators+&pos=10

 

I don't see a issue with it.... if you like it and fits your budget.

 

Those ones that plug into the cig lighter aren't any good, and they will drain your battery...for $70 you can get a

$91 Viair 88p Portable Compressor Kit (12V, 120 Psi, Forup to 33" Tires)

Viair 88p which connects directly to the truck's battery while it's running and will air up all 4 tires without risking overloading the compressor. I would highly recommend the Viair 88p over that one

 

hey man, if it makes sense, it makes sense. thanks for the info. you sold me.

 

No worries. If it was an issue of the Oreilleys being < $50 and that was what was in your budget, then I would understand...but for $70 you can get a much more capable one like the Viair

 

I agree with Ryan, but not really going to tell you how to spend your money as I don't know situation and needs really.

 

what about this guy? https://no.co/gb40 it will get the job done right? have it fully charged before i head out...whenever i do actually go on fire roads or something.

 

I don't have any experience with those

 

I've used something similar before on my wife's car when it was having battery issues, worked great to get it jump started

 

X2 on the

$91 Viair 88p Portable Compressor Kit (12V, 120 Psi, Forup to 33" Tires)

Viair 88p, I've had it for like 2 years now & the cost/performance continues to put a smile on my face. A few of my buddies have saved a ton of money by getting the Warn winch without air & getting the 88p.

I've got a Noco jump box like that & it works just fine. It holds juice, it transfers juice, what more could you want?

 

That’s all I need, thx, picking these two items soon.

 

they always go on sale during Black Friday .. I’d wait.
