New Mexico Owners BS Thread

Hey guys, I have a 2nd gen tacoma bed extender. Doesn't have the connectors to the bed, just the bars. $20 OBO if anyone is interested

 

Yeah I had to put on different front tires that didn't have the "rim saver" style beads. That way they could fit on their equipment.

 

Hey SGT Disco, do you still have the CV for sale? If so, I will arrange to come by and pick it up from you.

 

Sure do. Just about any time.

 

I will shoot you a text or PM this weekend once I figure out what my calendar looks like. I need to finally have you wire up my URD MAF Calibrator as well. Hope things are well for you, sir!

 

Things are good, just waiting on my engine to be built, then I'll head out to okc to pick it up. Need it installed? Or just as a spare?

 

Nice, looking forward to seeing your rig, especially once you get the engine installed. The CV will be a spare at this point.

 

Made a new tool for the shop the last couple days........Tools making tools.........





Bent 1/8" with no issues. Will be tring some bigger stuff tomorrow.

 

You all impress me. Can't wait to say hello. This why I have the baja. Don't trust myself to work on anything but my motocycle

 

Hey guys, so I got this camper from a local TW member (thanks Ryan for hooking me up) and I was wondering if it would be better to spray paint it myself with a can of duplicolor lunar mist or if there was a paint shop in town that you would recommend and is pretty cheap?

 

Hey folks, I was at a good friend's shop yesterday, and I asked him if he was willing to work on lifted Tacomas; he said sure, no problem. He is the guy I use for my autocross alignments, and he's been my alignment guy for many years (decades, actually). He worked at Chet's for a long time, and has his own shop now, down on Arno just north of Lomas.

Keith's Wheel Alignment & Auto Repair is the name of his shop. His work is top-notch, and his prices are reasonable. His name is Keith Craig. Phone # is 505-553-3789.

 

Cheap paint jobs don't usually last long, IMO. I use Fox Automotive for my paint & bodywork needs; they do very good work. One of my Audi TT's is there right now.

If you're going to scratch the paint off on branches & stuff like I do with my shell, then the rattle-can approach might be more cost-effective.

 

Ha ha Ryan is the man!!! He's done tons of work for me over the years and his prices and quality are 2nd to none.

 

Come on, someone wants these! Willing to sell wheels and tires separate too! $900 for the set, or $800 for the tires and/or $300 for the wheels!!!

Get these out of my garage!


31-ish inch (265/70/17) Duratracs with only 5,000 miles!!!

 

Alright awesome I'll check it out. Yeah I feel like it will get scratched so Ill just sand and paint probably. How many cans of spray paint would you say would cover it all?

 

I bought my truck in 2011 while I was stationed in Abq and have lived in Florida for the last 3 years. After racking up 50,000 miles on the pavement and getting orders back to Abq I decided to finally buy tires and suspension.

See you guys around.

Nice Tom. Amazing idea.

 

Looks good man!!! Glad I could help you out!! Kinda what these guys said though on the paint. If you are gonna hit some trails and stuff I would just rattle can it or somethin.
