Kansas City Tacoma Crew - 816/913

Well shit, I guess the rain was going sideways. Had windows cracked.

 

Aight. Let me know when.....

 

​

We haven't gotten a lick of rain out here... Bullshit.

 

Apparently a heavy storm rolled through. There's tree debris everywhere in my neighborhood. lol

My truck was also soaked everywhere...

 

I think we just got wind, fresh little branches alllll over the neighborhood, but no water on the ground. I didn't hear the wind roll through at all though, so it must have been during my little nap I took between 9 and 12 lol. I don't think they were there when I left this morning at 6:30 so

 

Damn, I'm jealous.

A nap between those times would have been perfect for me today.

 

Well, I mean I did stay up from 1:30pm the day before, I think I deserved a 9am nap lmao.

 

Last workday before my vacation!

 

Still got tomorrow here....

 

Which Firestone do you go to? I went to two shops on three separate occasions in my 4Runner and they could never get it right. I just had the dealer align the Tacoma yesterday and it's the best alignment yet. I really like the idea of the lifetime alignment, but I guess I need to find the right shop/tech.

 

Good to know! My cam tabs were good and the lower control arms were brand new with new bolts (hence the need for an alignment). The 135th & Blackbob location did okay and the techs at the 115th & Metcalf location didn't have a wrench big enough to spin the cam bolts, so they said.

 

We've used the one on State Line and they were great, the one here in Blue Springs.... I'm pretttty sure they bent the edge of my steelies

 

(pic i still need to edit lighting a tiny bit)

this is out on some class 1 maybe trail it was super easy just lots of water and mud and sand few small cliffs but had a great time in Tennessee. sadly the truck got fucked after hitting a bump on the road i didn't notice and getting air born with it. the reason is my lower control arm bushing has or is failing on the driver side and allowed it to go out of alignment really bad and i noticed it on our way to my buddies house so i ruined the front two tires. i did get it sorta aligned at his place and rotated the tires to try and save them so i could at least go wheeling and camping then go home on Sunday so now the truck will sit until i can get it fixed which is a big bummer

 

3rd design. Hopefully won't have to remove.
Yet again.......

 

what was wrong with the design that made you change it?

 

In San Antonio!

Shipping out to Padre Island in the morning for beach camping!

Met some local Taco bros with clean tacos.

 

pic from my last trip on dry creek trail its a stupid easy trail but lots of water crossings so i wouldnt take a stock truck down it unless its been really dry out

 

Installed. Physically.
Gotta wrap my head around the wiring since its going to my NSA box instead of the supplied switches.

Also, wrapping my head around myself, was trying not to scrape my back on the hitch under the bumper
going in and out.....missed the hitch. Then leaned to get up, into the swing out.

Took a few minutes to get my bearings. Glad I have a head like a rock sometimes.....

 

No kidding.....
