GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

FYI, Motortrend on demand has a deal for $1.00/ month right now ($11.99 for the year). Has all the road kill episodes, dirt every day. If you're into automotive shows, it's worth it. You can download the app on your tv or whatever and stream at will.

 

@TRDridgerunner what spring rate do you have on your Kings? Also, how has the finish held up so far, any corrosion yet? My biggest concern is corrosion with these, wondering if I should get them coated before I install.

 

Thanks for the feedback.

I want to be fair to the buyer, but I also want to be fair to me.

 

I think 2-300. I hope you sell them, but someone would be crazy to buy used as by now they are probably close.

My 4cyl has 120k and would not pass emissions. Rock auto one fixed it. If I was going to do it again, I would do rock auto with a warranty/brand new vs 10+ year old with xxx miles on them

It’s not a highly sophisticated part. This is an area where a decent aftermarket part makes sense

 

So do any of yall use husky liners? Thinking of giving them a try on my titan. I had weathertech in the tacoma but they didnt clean up like I liked and the quality wasn't as expected for the price

 

I had husky and liked them, they had a nice soft feel but still held plenty of mud and water to keep the floors clean.

 

Yup. Much prefer husky over weathertech. They are more pliable, which helps with removal to clean, and have better floor coverage.

 

So they are soft?

So they will actually get clean? The weathertech floor liners I had would clean off, but the black faded over time and it would stay stained from whatever mess it had on it

 

I think it depends which series you get. I have the “Classic” (the diamond tread style) ones and they’re pretty rigid. I recommend them.

 

Well I think I I can finally tell everyone what I need for christmas lol

 

They are more flexible than some weathertech ones I've seen, which is good imo. They keep their form enough to dump out water on them, but they feel more padded than a hard plastic.

Mine never stained or faded and they were put to use a lot.

 

Morning ladies! Getting in that Christmas spirit! Exhaustion had me totally butcher the 400W anytime mod last night but eventually figured it out, I was too excited to wait

 

Very festive of you!
Also what’s the maker of your rock lights again. Need to order a set for the trailer.

 

I couldn't resist!! Cant wait to get it in the mountains and take some pictures with the lights haha.

There are what i have on the corners:

4 Pods LED Rock Lights, Ampper Waterproof LED Neon Underglow Light for Car Truck ATV UTV SUV Offroad Boat Underbody Glow Trail Rig Lamp (White)

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H7FGO46/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

For the middle, its just a waterproof LED strip running along the length of the cab

 

Think these would be a good option to add to the back of a shell for more reverse lighting? Like 2 on each side around the back glass.

 

I don’t think the light would project far enough to be a useful reverse light

 

What’s up my peeps.

I need one of you PC guys to help me out. I purchased a PBL40 on here from another TW member.

I am need of someone to run a Firmware update, and I don’t have a PC.
(The current firmware has an auto shutoff I need to fix)

I will make it worth your effort.
Thanks in advance,
JB

 

noticed some GA folks in the "what have you done today" thread. Not sure why they aren't in here...

@Bonnie’s Squeeze and @jahulgan

 

Hi JB,
I've got a windows laptop and could help out. You just need to download the update and flash the PBL40? I'll PM you my mobile number and we can try to work out a time.

 

Thanks Bill, that’s mighty kind of you.
This little Dometic PBL40 is cool, just not so cool when it auto shuts off and your fridge is attached lol
