Northern Virginia Roll Call

I called and asked if a 35 would fit on their machine, they said they should be able to do them.

 

Oh and I let them know I'd just be carrying them out, they're not putting them back on the 4runner. So mounting as in just tires onto the wheels and then I'll toss them in the back. They were good with that. Probably would raise an issue if someone wanted Walmart to put the new much larger tires back on the hubs and lugs etc

 

That makes more sense, and what I was referring to. I'd heard of people in the past having issues with even a 1" larger tire. I didn't want to scare you though.

 

I probably should have clarified that earlier, whoopsie. Since I was carrying them out, they didn't even ask what they were going on

 

On another note, I just passed a Kia soul with a gigantic RoofNest on top. Wish I was able to get a pic. Tent footprint was larger than the car lol

 

Time to get to cuttin!

 

Was someone here looking for bed bars?

 

Thats right! Gotta go to work now, but when I get back or maybe the weekend I'll start test fitting and pull the front suspension to cycle

 

Yeah I've done Windrock a bunch. Great park, lots of fun. I'm planning to go back regularly to wheel with the TN folks too

Definitely worth the drive. Great park, and great trails.

True on the night wheeling, it's also my only knock on the park. Camping there can be rough because you hear everyone driving by at all hours with open headers haha

I need to explore Raush and AOAA.

I've got the TacoTabs and love them so far. I had to replace an LCA to get them in, but it was worth it.

 

I also replaced my LCAs.. but to Total Chaos Expedition ones

 

Nice! Mine was just because of the rust. Everything takes extra steps.

 

Drove one of the fancy all electric buses at work today and I feel like that bad boy had more body roll than when I first took my swaybars off lol. Batteries are in the roof

 

Had to take a pic today while doing a little fishin'. Just can't love these headlights enough. Really improves the look of the 2.5 gen front end IMO

 

Ohh those look pretty groovy. I like the color matched bumper too, very nice touch

 

Thanks. The rear bumper may have to be repainted soon...it's starting to show signs of rust around the weld seams, again

Edit: then again, it could be a good excuse to go high clearance

 

Oof! I wonder who's brilliant idea that was. Goodbye CG and handling.

Any photos of the beam pattern? Are the LED, HID, or halogen?

 

Yeah its kinda whack with them up there, but it does kinda makes sense. They're super low floor buses, so they couldn't go on the bottom. And the back is saved for the gigantic motors. Going slow there are proportioning valves that level it out, but if you whip it they body roll a bit haha. I'm sure they're better with passengers. Most riders are students, so summer definitely has less riders

 

LED. No photos but very bright and I can see much better now at night compared to the stock halogens

 

link for the head lights? they look really good and happy they are brighter than stock.
