95 taco's 2003 DC 4x4 not much of a build

Oh....shit. Sounds like a haul.

 

Yeah, it'll be a long drive, I should have a relief driver though so it won't be as bad, especially is we stay a night or two somewhere.
I'm hoping to get 18 average MPG, and 20-21 driving across texas.

 

Dad brought home the washer we need to finish the hubs, but we didn't get it installed today, so maybe tomorrow, then onto the plywood deck, unless the tires get here before then.

 

I'm pretty sure that was utter sarcasm lol.

 

Less than a month ago you didn't have much more flex. Calm down

 

Wrong.

But I'll let it slide....

Not really. I got shit constantly.

At least realized my near factory set up was shit and needed to change haha

 

Really how it's setup from the factory isn't terrible. Just depends on what you want to do with your truck.

For you, having a ton of flex and not much load capacity works great.

 

No, literally the factory first gen set up is trash in every way. Toyota leafs are complete shit, ride like shit and of corse don't articulate for shit.

2nd gens at least ride a lt better from the factory.

Also i stilll have 3 Leaf half ton leafs, so load capacity is still at least as good as stock, so I didn't lose anything there

 

To each his own.

Like I said, depends on what you want and need out of it.

 

Noice!

 

Thanks
She's ready to be registered after we button up a few things.

 

Subbed... You liking your tires?

 

Love the white wall trailer tires.....

 

I like the "sitting stinkbug" lol. Nice truck for a 95

 

Kinda, the wet (on road) traction isn't great, I drifted through an intersection once with the little bit of rain we get here, and my cousin (Who had these tires on a 2004 pre runner before me) had several experiences of pulling a U turn at a red light in the rain and ending up facing oncoming traffic. Dry traction is pretty good, I have to really try to break them loose on dry pavement.
Offroad (the little I do) they're OK, I don't air down so I end up using the locker a lot.

If I were to buy them new I'd get load range D instead of E.

My next tires will be these on spare wheels as my "wheeling tires"
Or Hankook dynapro MT's

Honestly, the AT KO's are outdated and if I were to get a A/T for my next tires I'd probably go with goodyear wranglers.

 

Thanks, it was a split second decision at the tire shop to have them mounted white walls out.

Thanks

 

But why?


And its not a 95

 

Why white walls out? the trailer is white (and is staying that way) and I don't think it'd look as good with all black sidewalls.

 

I'm still torn on the white out black out tire dilemma...i had white leters out and loved it...now i don't and i'm kind of feeling "ehh"

Before:


After:


Granted i went from a P rated piece of fuck tire taht i absolutely thrashed to death to an LT in the E load range that i baby even in the rain....i still loved the look of those firestones :/
