Alabama thread!

The whole center section has to be removed.

@whitedlite

 

lame, when I get some free time I may meet with someone and do a cardboard cut out.

 

I know its dumb

 

I carry a Derringer on most days, so concealing isn’t a problem.

 

Question: the arb bumper isn’t designed to be used with Hawse fairlead (I know I was shocked when I went to install it) so I cut about an inch of steel to make it fit. Problem is now the fairlead is recessed to where if I was winching for a far left or right angle, it would rub on the bumper. Do you guys think a steel spacer and 2 longer bolts would be strong enough to handle the forces of a winch? I’m thinking an inch spacer would push it far enough past that opening

 

Welp I'm still in town. Curious if any of yall had any plans to hit 600-1 this weekend. After doing a search of Alabama trails that seems to be the popular one near central bama. Figured I'd atleast get the taco out while I'm down here. Got bored last Saturday and went to cars & coffee off 280. Lmk

 

I would say you don't ever want to be winching at a far left or right angle, so you could keep it as is and basically use that as a "oh I'm too far left or right to be winching" guide.

That being said, if you just want to, as long as you buy hardware that's as strong as the hardware you have the winch mounted with, then it should hold up.

 

The Tacoma got a little update with new head lights and a Dobinsons snorkel! Successfully plumbed it up to my aFe intake as well, that was fun.

 

meh, always gonna be a thought. no real "plan" to do it though.

no real good reason other than just wanting to sometimes lol.

 

Damn thats a good looking rig

 

Trade you the taco for the Highlander straight up. Ill even let you take over the payments on it

 

oh really? would you uppercut my butt too? sounds like a deal.

 

it’s paid off, I see no reason to do it.

 

would get something else also paid off, or possibly cash in my pocket, that would be more useful to me in life right now than a Tacoma built for offroad is.

 

Done!! .

The wife dosnt want a taco tho so your safe lol. She got here first real upclose look at a Sequoia yesterday tho. Lets just say shes looking forward to later on in the year lol.

 

tell her I have a 98 4runner, low low mileage.

 

What would you do with the money would decide rather it's a good deal or not.

It kills me to get rid of something I know I'll lose money on

 

Lol, she says the new 4runners are to small. She really wont like a 3rd gen one lol.

 

vehicles are depreciating assets, just how it is. (no I don't care to get into the restore and sell for more bs)

can't live life always focused on money.
