For Stock Rigs Only

Yes enclosed, maybe tear drop camper type of setup

 

I had a thought, just tow a billboard with advertising to help offset the cost of gas

@jwtaco congrats on the 4R, and damn but that 15 was gorgeous. Must have been hard to let go.

I'll be interested to hear how you're liking the 4R come fall.

I can't replace Lucille with a 4R, gonna have to be truck, for days like today.

Today's To Do:

Vacuum pump delivery to a plastics recycler. Little light in the steering.

 

Well that was a bust and nearly a day wasted. My mechanic and a tire shop weren't able to mount the tires. The tires are narrow (5") where they meet the wheel and the wheels are 10" wide. They tried everything to get them seated...no dice. Per the counsel of @Tacoma Mike, I have 8" wood spacers jammed in the tires to hopefully widen that opening. I'm searching for some 20" x 8" OEM take-offs. I'm close to losing my shit over this.

 

Go to the tundra site. See if any are for sale.

 

Not even the pickle tank? Damn...

edit: told yah I'd trade my stock 18's...

 

Pickle tank??

They tried to blow them into place using starting fluid. I voluntarily stood back on that one. They said they need to do that from time to time.

 

Yelp.
Did that plenty of times.
Plus a ratchet strap around the circumference of the tire.
Two air hoses.
Yeup we have ways…

 

I saw all those techniques attempted too.

 

BUT, NOT BY ME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

160

 

This is the actual tool for what they were trying.

 

We actually used 2 of these on a set of tires…

 

Better than using them on each other... garage pranks are no laughing matter everyone else, back to work!

 

Dangerous shit if not careful..

 

Morning Stockatonians.
What’s in store for the weekend?
Going to vacuum the leaves out of the garage and do some more reorganization and pull the Corolla out of storage.
Come on warm weather…

 

Today looks like heading out to Lime Rock Park with Mrs. Spruce Mica for Porsche Club of America racing. Overcast and maybe 50° but it's always a great day to be at the race track (right, Mike?)

 

Yea..

 

Damn right
