MARYLAND TACOMAS

They internal trans cooler can rust out and leak into radiator and vice versa than trans if fucked so I am getting a external cooler bypass the factory one
Happens in 3rd gen alot apparently

 

Offroad

 

You have more guts than most of us do. Can't imagine putting a new expensive Taco through that! But it is impressive!!

 

Nice pics! Where is that?

 

Any classic/muscle car guys on here? Looks like the Big M in Harford co. is opening back up for car shows and swap meets. This Saturday is the first show. I might ride up and check it out.

 

I did my silver 4runner recently. I replaced the radiator in my black runner a few years ago but i still plan on installing a external cooler on that one too. Better safe than sorry.

 

Also did a BG trans flush after the install.

 

This is my next upgrade for the silver runner. I have a tundra kit sitting at work for it. This is the best upgrade for the buck that i've done to my taco and my black runner.

 

O's finally won one.

 

There is a street rod round up in Cumberland this weekend. (2nd-6th)

A Mainstreet major car cruise in Frostburg (3rd)

And a Huge Super Cruise this Saturday in Cumberland (5th)

 

Thats on my list of things to do also did you go with the 231mm calipers

 

Handled really well with only minor scratches on the sides, nothing that didn't buff out.

 

I have the 231's on my tacoma. 199's for on my black runner and this kit is also 199's. The main reason for the upgrade is the small & thin brake rotors that came OE on the 4runners are just too small which results in warped rotors. With the tundra brakes up front and properly adjusted rear brakes you can stop on a dime.

 

They took down the 2131 already?

 

Greatest campsite in George Washington National Forest just west of Harrisonburg, Virginia. We entered the park around 8:30pm and arrived here around 3am.

Amazing green trails with a couple tough spots.

 

Anyone else wanna do some retros? They were tons of fun and super easy

 

I want to do a retro but i don't have an oven :/ So you are the retro guy around here?

 

BTW guys, couple of weeks ago there were talks about hitting up some trails this weekends. Any update?

 

If you dont mind my asking, what shop do you work at? my truck is in need of having the trans pan dropped and everything cleaned and fluids replaced and what not, basically a regulr trans service, would much rather give my monies to a fellow TW Member than some other random dude

 

Gonna piggyback off this and also ask if you'd be willing to do my ecgs bearing? I honestly don't feel like doing it. I'll pay someone to have it done.
