    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    They don't weld a couple of them together on a stick like BAMF does?

    Look at top of the 3rd picture

    That makes installing those bolts very easy! You don't even need to put a wrench on them, just start both of them by hand and tighten

    Over the weekend, we submitted our adoption application for this little guy. Fingers crossed, I'm waiting on confirmation that he's still available and that our application is accepted. He's a 4 month old lab rescue.

    Morning all! Happy Monday...

    Wonder if maybe it had loosened before and was rubbing on the larger tire and that's what caused it to blow? Or possibly it loosened when it blew...

    Pic?

    You rat bastard haha. I’ve been looking on the gov auction sites and Craigslist for months. Nothing is under 1k and they’re rough. I got off social media years ago but everyone keeps getting deals on Facebook. Might need to join again. Is it a 101CAD or 416? Either way nice snag man; I’m extremely jealous!

    It could have possibly done that, but the tire blew from the inside where the fender wasn’t really rubbing... I don’t have a pic of it, can take one of old tire when I get home later.

    It's a 416. The info tag is tough to read, but I'm going to see if I can clean it up since I have it, maybe even rivet it back in the original spot on the tailgate when I'm done the build.

    So pumped! Getting a new frame under the class action.

    Took my Taco to the dealer since I bought an extended warranty, to have the brakes, wheel bearings, and A/C looked at which are also getting fixed under my exteneded warranty, but they checked the frame and said it qualifies for a replacement!!

    Now I can really keep her forever and not worry about her rusting away to nothing. Gonna get in on those fluid film meets now to keep her shiny.

    Just wanted to share my excitement :thumbsup:

    any pictures of what it looks like now? Did you go for the free evaluation/spraying they've done in the past?

    I honestly didn't think it would fail, they obviously have some particular spot that they know gets the worst of it. I'll ask them when I pick it up later this week. It was sprayed in the past before I bought it 4.5 years ago, which they mentioned when they said they were going to inspect it.

    I've found taking a picture of it and doing multiple edits in different styles can help get info off tags. I did it before for CNC servo tags
