30 and younger thread

A lot of my family lives up in bham and Ferndale.

 

Just placed an order for the following:

60" Hi Lift
Hi Lift Handle Keeper
Hi Lift Bumper Lift
17,500lb ARB Recovery Strap
10ft Cable Lock(How I'm going to lock the Hi Lift and CO2 tank for now)
2 3/4" D-Rings
Hitch Reciever D-Ring
MagLite 3-D Cell LED Flashlight
2 Quick Fists for mounting flashlight

 

Werd. Nice area up there...too rainy for my taste though after living in CO.

I'm out.

 

I'm interested to see where you're going mount the 60" with a box in the bed and CO2 tank lol

 

Yeah.. Haha I only have about 48" from the toolbox to the tailgate. That's why for now it's just going to be laying in the bed locked up.

Once I get a bed rack I'll have it mounted.

The CO2 tank doesn't take up much space. I just have it laying down in the bed strapped to the corner. I haven't found the time to bolt it to the bed, I need to put a quick disconnect on the tank first because as of right now my hose is hard lined to the regulator but none of my tools are narrow enough to remove it... I'll take tons of pics of everything tomorrow.

Also, finally got word on the cb I ordered nearly 3 weeks ago. They shipped it two days ago and should be here Saturday. But it still doesn't have my name on it, so I have to remember to call the post office so they don't return it AGAIN! Haha Only downside is that my 90* coaxial piece won't be here before that. I'll probably just go by Radioshack and see if they have any. Then I'll just put the other one on the end of my mic.

 

Other than making up for a pinky sized pecker, why'd you get a 60" hi-lift? Not like you're SAS'd, or running a great amount of lift... The 48" would've been overkill...

 

Haha not if you're in a predicament. Many people that have had 48" with trucks at the same height as mine have said they've reached the limit.

If you're on an incline and break something or get stuck and the only good spot for the Hi Lift is nearly 1-2 foot below the tires, then the 60" come in handy.

Also, you can use the Hi Lift for many more things than just a jack.

Another great point. Once this thing isn't my daily driver and I start breaking stuff all the time, I'm sure the 60" will definitely come in handy. I made the mistake of always going cheap on my old Tacoma. Not doing it with this one!

 

was gonna say, dam good deal! 72 for mine with 124k a couple years ago. mint condition. now...not so much haha!

i really want to take my truck to the guys house and show him how much its changed

 

That's how mine was. It was in GREAT condition and taken care of. Previous owner really cared about the truck.

 

Idk... 48" is 4 feet... If you can't get your truck off the ground, and pitch a tent under it with 4 feet, then it's not safe to get under it and work on it anyways

 

Completely agree with you there, but if your stuck and lift it so that the tire is just about 10" off the ground so you can stick rocks under the tire it works out great.

Such as when I was going up this instead of down, I got stuck and if I would had been able to put rocks under the tires I probably wouldn't have dented my rocker panel.

 

Haha yup! Born and raised up until 19 and moved to Missouri in December. Bought the Tacoma in Missouri, but I HAD to register it in Texas!

 

Should have saved some money and bought a locker... That's nothing a TRD O/R can't handle...

 

He has a locker

 

Had nothing to do with not having a locker

 

love those tires thats my next set!

 

sliders brah.

 

Love them too! I'm either going to get these or might try the MTR's in 35's next time.

 

yes i know you got some. whooptie doo

 

Hey, it's a big deal for me so shut your mouth.
