New Mexico Owners BS Thread

I am talking nonsense about the lift??

Billy 5100's @ 2.5? Will I need to lift the rear at all, will the 1.5 be too much to keep a leveled look? How does this setup look/feel? Will it stand up to some moderate wheeling? Will the UCA's need replacin'? I ain't a total mechanical idiot, but there are a million different threads about lifting and a million different ways...

Holy cow, I feel like a kid..

The chili challange is a big deal crawling event that meets here once in the spring. Pretty cool stuff, lots of wild rigs...

 

if i had to do my lift again i would totally go with the ultimate lift from toytec!

 

that comes with everything? even UCA's? I heard OME is a pretty damn good lift, but for alot cheaper. I cancelled the warranty on my truck yesterday, so its time to get a bit crazy..

 

While I'm here and double posting.... Any troublesome spots on the Taco with removing mud? On my previous chevy trucks, it used to hide under the fenderwells.. Anything I should watch out for that'll sit around and rust?

Should be all the info...

Let me know and we'll organize a little run...

IF you bastards tell me where the mud hides on these trucks, and if my lift ideas make sense.

 

Wheew -- ok.

I may actually look into the OME kit, just to have something super comprehensive... I'm totally undecided... ugh..

Anyway, keep me up to date about ya'll wanting the challenge, I've actually never been, have a buddy to that competes in his Land Rover, this year I'd like to go..

 

Depending on how fast you drive, its about a 2.5-3 hours. Not a biggie. The event is about 10 minutes out of town

 

I was born and raised in the LC! I go down there every couple of months.

 

Speaking of which, we had another snow last night, this one about an inch and a half... and I just washed my damn truck.

 

Hey fellas does anyone wanna buy a trd skit plate for their tacos I've had it on for a 3 weeks or so I already took it off still new no scratches or anything. Hit me up if anyones interested.

 

... What up mang...So Thats how I always try to get it to snow during the winter...its always sure to frickin' snow if I bother to try and clean up the truck.Good juju or whatever... but guess its only a good thing if there's skiing close by tho...
Speaking of which we only got like 6" out of that storm up at ski SF. I guess were gonna open 12/12... with like 3 or 4 green and blue runs... its better than nothin though!! hopefully more snow on the way soon! you guys got hammered down south compared to up here...WTF?!?

 

PS
so if anybody skiis or snowboards here's an open invite to come hit it up this season!!!... i work up there so I can try to get some maybe half price tickets for a couple people. that might help with gas $$. unfortunately no promises tho, cuz availability is inconsistent... but i can usually work something out.
and donuts in the parking lot are always fun after everyone leaves...:]

 

sweet!! been waiting for santa fe to open. getta rip up some snow with the truck and board too i guess..if money finds a way to work itself out lol

 

Ha -- so here's this for lucky. Forget the outside of the truck, no reason to clean it because the wet is gonna be around for a while. The past three days, my buds and I have been tracking mud all in the truck, so I get down pretty serious to clean it. Throw down a nice detail and get everything real purty. Rolling up to a stop sign, phone rings, look at the phone, BAM. Rear ended a Corolla. Phuck.

Luckily the owner was apparently pretty cool, and the damage was minimal. Wanted to buy a new All-Pro for the truck, now I have a reason, just not the money.

 

lol damn that sucks! my friend had an 05 taco and he got rear ened 5 times and got a grand outta each accident. thats more than enough for a all pro bumper

 

Maybe we could do a Tacoma/Snowboarding meet as the next NM meet-up.

 

that would be pretty sweet!


P.s. still have bilstein 5100's for sale 300 takes em

 

hells yeah.... it's tryin to be winter!!!

 

haha hell ya that would be awesome, but id prob bust my ass all day on the slopes havent snowboarded in a few years
