New Mexico Owners BS Thread

Damn peeps.... where you at??

 

hey david what time? id like to go (im pretty sure i can) if your not doin any crazy shit haha

who knows man no one ever gets on any more, but i few of us were outta town for a few days haha

 

Judging by the date of David's post, I think the Sunday he was talking about has already passed. That's ok though, you were on Black Bear, Imogene, and Yankee Boy that day.

 

ooo eff me haha

 

Hey have any of you guys had an issue with your Taco leaning on the drivers side? I noticed it after I got home after the trip. The passenger rear corner of my bed is higher than the other by a good almost 2 inches or more. the whole truck is leaning though. I measured at the wheel wells and the front drivers side is an 1 1/4 lower than the passenger and the rear drivers is 1 1/2 inches lower than the passenger and at the tailgate it is 1 3/4 inches difference. Help me out here guys. It looks goofy leaning. It looks like a 500 pound guy is sitting in my truck all the time.

 

well not sure but it sounds like the classic case of the "taco lean" i think it has something to do with the suspension i forget exactly what it is but look it up im sure youll be able to find somethin.

hope that helped out a little

 

Hey Alex look at this http://albuquerque.craigslist.org/pts/1842031481.html

 

looks pretty good man but ehh dont know if i like the body lift, like it says bigger tires yes! but i still wont have the articulation that i really want that id only get with a suspension lift

 

What?.... This thread is alive?

 

haha some what i guess

 

Did you take off your sway bar? i know anthony's taco leans like crazy cause of that. otherwise i think it could be a shock giving out lol i had the same problem cause of a blown shock from hitting a jump at 35mph haha

 

Yeah is your Swaybar off cuz me and dom got that huge body rolllllllllllllllllllllll

 

more like scary body roll.... lol.

 

haha idk its not that bad

 

lol.... I work on getting my suspension stiff and rid of body roll.... while you on the other wanna make it loose and have more body roll....

 

Well I have better control offroading tried it out ova at puerco and it was great your racing different story ahaha

 

But what else could it be? What if I take off the sway bar and it isn't fixed what else could I do? I don't have the cash to drop on the shocks that I'm going to put in.

 

Well lay off the damn donuts, copper. Like Alex said, my first impression was taco lean too. The driver's side has the gas tank, the battery, etc. and it just weighs more so it sits lower. It's usually only about half an inch though and is fixed with an extra quarter inch spacer on the driver's side. I've never heard of it approaching two inches though. Honestly, I've never really researched it much either because mine was only a half inch and I just did the spacer trick. Have you searched to see if others had that much lean? Do the suspension parts look fine or did we do some damage up here? Are you still under warranty?

 

lol. Yeah I know what it's for just I haven't rode in a truck like that for a while.... Sick taco you have though man.... I was thoroughly impressed with how it stands.... Now i'm sitting as low as I will ever be. So we should go have a photoshoot!
