*PISMO SATURDAY FEB.26TH*

brian, cory u guys missed out hard everyone that was left took jumps and got mad air alma got some pretty crazy air but mad props to relik that shit was crazy

 

Hey man is your truck the red prerunner with the 4 hella 700ff's

 

he claims one of the vendors on the sand but i have yet to find one even online

 

Yea thats me

 

The banana cabana^ they say they sell them but are out of stock all the time.

 

What! Pictures or it never happened!

Actually I'm glad I wasn't there, I wouldn't be able to resist

Uhoh did Relik pull a James?

 

Better than pictures... Videos of relik and myself. I failed at uploading videos here soooo just look on the FB...

 

Keeps telling me "to many server redirects" wtf? I need real internet, only use my phone.

 

Really? Fail fail idk what else to do haha I'll text you the videos

 

Tryin this from my phone, only got video of jumps but took snapshot of them... And only got one of SBlue, 3GS video start lags!

Red Bull Gives You Wings!






And SBlue:

 

I sure did miss out! That was sick, are both trucks ok....Was this sun morn or after I left sat?

Ready for some longtravel

 

damn! sick air! is that a stock truck tho?! mad props man u have some balls! whats the damage like, if any? haha
edit: awesome pics conekiller!

 

I didn't get towed out, so technically I didn't get stuck.

 

I'm glad I got the 5100s all around (leveled), they helped on landing but yeah stock other than that...

As for damage nothing serious...I Slightly bent my radiator tho (no leaks) which caused my fan shroud to partially pop off and fan to rub ( slipped off again later going through river, got to see how to secure it better). One of my headlight's mount tabs snapped, and one fender trim clip snap. Oh Also one plastic inner wheel well came off cause the wheel bottomed out burning a cut through it...So Just more scars perhaps long travel is in my distant future too...Hehe

I think Alma just shaked off some sand, props for air-time!

Thanks again to everyone for helping in the pits and getting me out when in need, had a great time!

 

Tacomas are tough, but don't know how much of that it can handle without strengthing things, longtravel setup will help. U need to buy a horn like the general lee from dukes of hazard

 

how do people post videos here... hmm

pismo is where i spend most of my time in the summer..we will have to head out for some hucking

thanks

it did come from the banana cabana . they are hard to get though



and to alma and relik.... be careful jumping on a stock frame with no gusseting . stock tacos bend very easy....believe me i know. even longtravel doesnt help. my truck has a fully boxed and reinforced frame with lots of gussets and i still brake stuff. ripped off a uca mount 2 weeks ago.

 

nice guys, wish i could have been there to show you up

but seriously, be careful. you need to go out and look over everything. check you motor mounts, coil buckets, UCA mounts, rear portion of the frame that is not boxed, check ball joint bolts... everything.

those were big hucks and un-gusseted stock parts will fail very quickly... you might have cracked or loosened something and you dont want it to completely fail on you when you're going 70 on the freeway

 

my uca mount ripped off the frame while on the freeway.... takes matts word for it....get under your trucks and inspect everything... i have seen tacos bend and break with jumps smaller than that. alma if your down by me anytime this week stop by and i can check it out.

 

Ill check the ball joints, im paranoid
