Cleveland area Tacoma's

Welcome to TW, TacoRipper from Uniontown (near Akron)

I've been getting mine washed regularly but the next day it is a big bucket of ice and dirty snow. Looking forward to spring...

 

Anyone going to SOR this weekend?

 

I wish. I hope to be able to make it out the March outing if you're down.

 

I went up to the Cleveland Auto Show yesterday to see the 2016 Tacoma. After looking around the Toyota display and not seeing the blue Limited or the tan Off Road, I asked one of the reps. "It's at another show", she said. "But I can send you information on it!"

Got enough of that from the web, wanted to see it in person. Oh well, lot's of other cars to check out....

 

Wadsworth!

 

There's a sick lifted double cab 2 gen running around Parma/ middle burgh heights on what looks to be stealth rims. It
Looked black but I could be wrong. Beautiful looking truck. I work out there so I see a bunch of nice Tacomas.

 

This one?

This is the new Ohio thread. Very active.

 

out here in Richfield

 

I love richfield. I wanted to move there, but too far for wife to get to work. I'm over in Brecksville.

Friends. I have my first truck on order. 2016 DCSB OffRoad, Tech/Tow, M/T, mag grey. It's going to take a little while due to the manual transmission. In the mean time I've been reading and looking at picture of trucks that I think sit nice, although I am still so lost when it comes to suspension/lifts/leaf springs/shocks/UCA.

This will be my daily driver, so a lot of pavement but plan on taking it offroad as much as I can. I also will fill the bed with soil, wood, mulch, stone. I do a lot of yard work and do plan on pushing pay load to it's limits. I've been told rancho 9000s (that wireless controller looks neat) are nice, so is OME. I know not to use blocks for the lift. I love the look of ko2s. I think 3" lift is too much for me, although I would like it to sit a little higher than stock.

I'm so lost on suspension/lifts/shocks/leaf springs and what all is needed to give me the performance and look I want. Anyways, can anyone suggest a local shop that can honestly help me in the right direction? Or an easy read or youtube video for dummies? I'm 33 with a 1 year old, so I am trying to learn the quickest but keep getting lost in forums comments.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

Mine is a 3inch lift in the front with a 1.5inch spacer in the back @sneakypete

 

Hey neighbor! Over here in Broadview Hts!

 

nice! good looking truck. you do all the work yourself or do you know of a trustworthy shop?

 

It's all been done mostly by myself except for getting tired mounted and shit.

Do not recommend North Royalton Conrads!!!!!

We can do whatever you'd like at my place. Don't waste money paying people to do that stuff.

 

wow, kind offer. appreciate it. If you don't mind I may reach out with any specific questions during my research for what I want to do while I wait for my truck

 

Well I frequent the other active Ohio thread and it's the far reaches of Cleveland but checking in from Massillon/Canton area!

 

What's up everyone. I'm from the Strongsville area. Wondering if any of you guys can recommend a good local shop to do a rack and pinion on my 06 taco. I just changed both of my front cv axles because the rubber boots cracked and now I notice the rubber boot on the power steering is leaking oil out of it. Thanks

 

Hey! You bought the factory leaves off me a couple years back! Hit me up about any of your automotive repair needs.

Yea what's up roman. You still at that shop on pearl Rd?

 

Nope, left that place back in May. On my own now
