NJ Taco's

Btw, Doug at Toytec is awesome

 

I was inquiring about a lift a while ago, but then talks of potential new vehicle delayed plans,,,,and new vehicle acquired. Dejavu is a possibility,

Nice,,, good thing this one is auto then..... Like I mentioned, tires are sold. Need to order tires today to get old ones off and delivered. How bad will 285's be until lift is put on. Well be ok for road only use?

 

The past year? U haz no lift?

 

I used to do that, then I changed my clutch. Fuck that, I'll let the cheap and easy to replace brakes do the work.

 

Damn, didn't know that...looks like 285's it is.




Agree ant, my Mazdaspeed and 626 both had brakes over 100k till when I sold it. And clutches were original. Except in speed was stage 3 clutch and ebc rotors and yellow pads prob put on at 15k

 

Youz guyz are comparing trucks to cars.

 

ORLY? Pretty sure your Civic clutch would care a whole lot if you used it in your truck.

 

I've read that a few times. Maybe I should stop doing it. Does it really cause a problem. The big trucks do it all the time - jake brake ?

 

really....wtf......just went to order 285's , out of stock...FML am i gonna have to to 265's by force.....well, they are cheap so why not only $150 a tire

 

It's really not a big deal, but I personally leave it in whatever gear I'm in to let the engine help with the braking, I just don't feel like putting the extra reps on the clutch to save brakes which are cheap and easy to replace. As for big rigs, I believe their brake retarders use exhaust or something to amplify engine braking so it's a completely different story for them. And they probably want their brakes as fresh/cool as possible for any oh shit moments.

 

Jake brake is when big rigs release the pressure via combustion out a valve to result in no compression iirc

 

Which is why is so loud, which is also why in residential areas u see signs that say no engine braking

 

Yes.

You never LOL'd at my truck

Look in my album. Any pics of black wheels are 265/70/17's. Grey wheels are 255/85/16's. Truck was lifted 1-3/4" in rear and about 1" in front

So the little birdie who told me you never drilled the front slider holes was lying?

Must shoot bird next time he tweets.

LOLz...new truck with Toytech's and tread writes. Say good by to the nice drive. wobble clunk wobble clank boom

I could of swore you were worried about warranty or some shit. who knows.

why sell old tires before buy new?

you really make me wonder some days

coughbullshitcough

do not listen to him. he's fucking with you

IDK my tires were only $180 + $10 buyers fee

 

Main reason for sell first was I can't store for long garage full. U haz no confidence in toytec lift? I seen ants truck, I nj now he fullashit 265 tread wright are 117 or 130 depending on guard dog or other new style

 

And I trust mr t to balance perfectly

 

dam I did show 3 people that day didn't I?

Tell and die I say

x2....

OE? I still run OE.

tell ya what....we blindfold you and you can follow me there in your truck.

My fav. Might switch it up next time due to heavier tires, but who knows. May do stock again.

all I know is aluminum can not take the same stress as steel and has a tendency to crack easier. That said who cares....it's already behind you if it falls off

check your rear brakes for adjustment. you shouldn't have warped rotors unless they were defective. hell mine are still fine at 90k. I didn't even get them cut. just slapped pads on them at 60-70k.

I suspect either defective front pads or bad "foot on the brake and gas" driving or rears aren't engaging and fronts doing all the work thus frying them

You can't fit a stack of tires on your deck? Please......... that's a BS excuse.


I have zero confidence in Toytec. Never owned them and only people I do know who had them and actually wheeled hard broke them.


well at that price who cares..... dam thats cheap. Is that shipped?

 

Screw them. He will never fork over the cash for that without a million questions


OME and done

In all seriousness OME is what I would do if I were you Eddie. Heck even Ant has OME suspension on his truck and I soon hope to myself

 

your secret is safe with me.
