MARYLAND TACOMAS

I'm contemplating getting rid of ny tuner spline lug nuts...

 

What wheels are on your truck now?

 

Fn Six Shooters in Gunmetal Grey 17x8 0mm offset

 

Unfortunately stock lugs don't work on these wheels. I have the FX Pro wheels currently and I have the same lugs as you. May sell the FX Pro's soon but we'll see. May put my new tires on them and see how they look and just sell my current tires.

 

Because of the washer on the OEM lugs?

 

OEM lugs are a totally different design. They just have the washer and actually seat down into the rim. Our current lugs on the FN wheels have a "cone" type seat.

 

I just hate that i'm married to the cheap little key that came with them. If i had a half a dozen keys, i wouldn't care as much

 

Talk to Dustin at FN Wheels. The keys are all the same for every set of lug nuts he ships. They're not locking, just "thin" style so no special or one off key. I'm sure he can get you a couple extras so you have them in the event you lose or crack one.

 

I was going to do that but never got around to it. Its now been a year

I wish he'd just get is ass back on TW! Lol

 

Yeah, I've had mine since march, thought it about it, still thinking about it lol. Really should do it though.

 

WHAT DID THEY SAY can I buy it? Also, all US-market FJ60s were 4-speed manual, with a carb'd 4.2-liter 2F engine. The later FJ62 was only offered in auto, rocking a 3FE and A404 like you would find in early FJ80s.

...I spent too much time on ih8mud.

 

I'll be down there!

 

Awesome! I'll be in a white turd gen

 

I was told it's not for sale but I left the guy my # in case that changes. I like the 60 series but I prefer the 80's with the diff lock option. When I find a diff locked 80 that's priced right I buy it. Ask @Mobtown Offroad, I bought one that I found sitting untagged in a driveway in his neck of the woods when I was dropping off one of my Tacomas to him lol.

 

Yeah, then you made me trailer that fat ass truck all the way back to your shop. That was a heavy pig haha.

 

You should've felt privileged to be in the presence of a 1 owner diff locked 80! Ha ha!

 

This reminds me, and I keep forgetting to text you. Be on the look out for a low mileage 3.4 for me please. My motor is starting to have a slight knock on the bottom end. Sounds like it is in a piston, def not a rod knock or valves.

 

It's because you haven't put the v-tec stickers on there. I'm still waiting

 

I always get my low mileage 3.4's from my guy in AZ. I still have that 109k mile one sitting here on the stand that I got from him but I'm holding onto it in case I need it for that 478k mile Tacoma that I gave my stepson. But that thing is running so strong I'll probably never use it.

 

THEN SELL IT TO ME!

Yeah, I still have his info. I might call him today to see what he has. It has me concerned. (Insert subtle hints that I need your help with an engine swap in the near future)
