Ontario BS Thread

Gahhhh!! Way cheaper than my TotalChaos ones for exact same function. Plus Canadian made, cdn currency and no duty or BS. Wish I knew of these last year.

 

This truck has mean stance in person.

 

Sitting in my rear seat waiting to install tonight....Honestly I scoured the web trying to find a cheaper solution that had any reviews - nothing to be found and I'm usually good at finding a decent knock-off haha. FYI if you do order there's a 15% off code on their instagram for tacomas...I missed that unfortunaltey.

"everyone" raves about them and it looks like it does make a huge difference. My cluster is scratched up from dust, so I'll report back tonight and let you know.

I did order the double pack, my plan was to install one and sell the second set to offset the rip off these guys charge - I save some money and someone else gets a kit for cheaper. Will let you know if I decide to do that.

Ahh damn dude. Yeah, I've been following this guy for a while and when he released the stiffeners I decided to give em a shot. Phenomenal detail and happy to be paying a price that's at par/less that the US options. I have the Molle panels because everyone needs one pointless accessory (lol) and I love those as well. Quality stuff and look forward to whatever else he makes.

 

@Shveet I bought a bunch of rubber matting from Princess Auto when it was on sale for $2.99 (39x12") so I'm going to do the engine bay mod soon!

May have enough to make 2 or 3 sets, so I will let em go here if it's a successful build.

Just need to get some of the retaining clips off Amazon.

 

so my clutch TOB said enough is enough
new ASIN clutch kit ordered

 

See, automatics are better.

@3JOH22A

I knew you'd be the guinea pig (bravo btw) even if it's only the tob

Lemme know how the ASIN works out. I've got another 100K at least so take your time

 

Bill of materials in my post, which you've previously seen and replied to: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/ontario-bs-thread.249665/page-2019#post-25685297

 

ah, was looking for that to check


cheers

 

Basically there are three tires available in 35x10.5-17" size, and the Kenda Klever R/T is the only one out of the three, that isn't a deathtrap on wet pavement.

a little narrower yet at 35x10 but a death trap?

 

Ah forgot about this one. The other two tires I was referring to are the Goodyear MT/R and the Interco Super Swamper SSR.

 

are you getting any fender rub at full stuff with your Klevers?

 

I hoped you were talking about a girl named Kenda Klever Disappoint

 

Not when diagonally flexed like this, and I get about 1mm clearance to the cab mount.

When fully stuffed to the bumpstops (like landing after driving off a ledge at high speed), the tires graze the plastic fender liners at the top.

I've driven through Gooderham twice and see no rub marks on the plastic fender liners or any missing paint on the cab mounts.

 

Making grass today….

 

These Timbren’s have been great. They are a night and day difference in compliance. The factory bump stops are hard and have no forgiveness. I have heard of these Timbren filling up with mud and water. Some people flip them them and mount them to the underside of the factory bump plate. I haven’t had any issues. And the u-bolts are a great added feature to gain a bit more clearance. Only problem is when you remove the factory u-bolt mounts you’ll start to hit other things along the axle
