NJ Taco's

Oh shat, I forgot all about it. Can you PM me his contact info? Thanks.

 

Ok, so I just spent the last two hours washing the truck inside and out and buffing out all the little redneck pinstripes from Stokes. Tempted to buy an old cheap yota for trails and keep this one clean from now on. Doubt it'll go over well with Jen though.lol On a positive note, my leafsprings were squeeling from Wharton but ever since the last Stokes run, they haven't made a sound. I don't get it but I'm not complaining.

 

mike you have a reg cab 4cylinder.. do this..

its a full 16 pages of build, but if you go to the last page you can see the finished product. Or you can read through every page like me, and get a whole new plan for your rig

 

Nice! I was on Amazon and bought the tacoma repair manuals.. 2 different ones but basically the same thing, and when I went to check out it showed other things in my cart from last time I was looking at stuff.. So I ended up buying a Hi Lift and all the accessories I deemed necessary and should have them in time for RC!

 

We do.

 

I've seen that before. That thing is bad@ss. When I bought this truck I was really planning on buying an old '89 and going crazy with it. Wifey didn't think it was a good idea being we're planning on starting a family soon.

 

get me a good deal on what i need. or even a rental

 

sweet! do you have sliders? someone told me that you need sliders to be able to use a hi-lift on our Tacomas.

and my shackle from Tim over at Elite came today

 

Haha no not yet.. I was gonna order them last week but they wont be here in time for RC so i'm just going to wait till I actually have the money for them. I'll only be able to use it as a come along for now, or if anyone else needs it

Good looking hitch shackle right?

 

They have that adapter that hooks it on your wheel so you can jack up a wheel. So you don't need sliders.

 

Yea I was gonna get that but I figure I can improvise with a webbing sling through the wheel if needed

 

Well if you need it this weekend you can borrow mine.

 

ok, thats what i thought. i think Elite makes something that goes into the receiver hitch so you can use it to lift up the truck from the hitch with a hilift. you can only lift the back tires though.

and i havent seen the shackle yet. i had him ship it to my moms house since i just finished up moving to my new place this weekend and didnt have a po box set up yet. im sure its awesome though.

 

did you get the winch kit for the hi lift?

 

hey guys, i know this looks like a sales pitch....but its not....i know i had success with this and know how much it can help....and doing my job, just about everyone has an under insulated attic costing money...this is one of the least expensive ways to save the most amount of energy. look at it and if your interested, ill help ya out. i swear by it, more than windows....

anyone have a dealership conection for front stock front mudflaps, or have another resource. i cant take it anymore. to much flinging rocks and debris

 

Yeah, its chipping paint on the sliders, and I hVe to repaint em now

 

good call with just using the reciever.. I was thinking of :carefully: lifting with the shackle if needed.

and for lifting a tire.. only 2 reasons I can come up with are to fill a hole or if its a flat tire lift it high enough to wedge something under the axle then remove and replace the wheel/tire then jack it back up to remove the object under the axle

No.. I already have everything I need to use it as a come along

 

ill b there

 

gena would come with me.....wouldn't have it any other way.... cant go the weekend without gettting laid
