PNW TACOMA OWNERS THREAD

There's gotta be someone close to you who has done a coilover/leaf spring swap, and would probably do it for a 6 pack of beer...

Your truck is pretty capable stock, and will last longer..stock. Unless you want the cool factor and/or gonna be seeing some serious dirt.. I'd just leave it stock. This is just my opinion

Edit: oh yeah, welcome.

 

Kennewick, WA. Here's a pic of my fathers and I's 3rg gen Twins.

Hey guys. New to TW and owning a Tacoma. Nothing to look at because it’s a stock Quicksand SR5 I’ve only had for a couple weeks but I’m in love with this truck and I’m glad to join in. I’m in Hillsboro and just looking to learn more.

 

Welcome - there's even a few of us out your direction as well. Between here and the PNW Expedition FaceBook group, there's a good group around.

 

Hey everybody. New here, but recently picked up an 18 OR in April. Super happy with it so far. Im a long time VW/Audi guy, and a tech for a shop in Redmond, but live in Covington. I look forward to meeting some of you when I'm out and about.

 

SR5 models have much potential. Good choice.

3rd Gen run at Sandlake and Browns Camp this past Saturday

 

YASSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! people need to smile and wave at each other more..

 

I wave to every taco owner I see up here in WA.....never get one back haha

 

I wave at everyone in Idaho

 

Rude!! Lol

 

To be fair, I only wave @Kwee808 cuz I know he waves back.

 

New to the board and just picked up my '18 TRD OR this past weekend here in Puyallup, WA. Put a list of mod's together while I was waiting for it to be delivered and slowly making my way down.

I just converted from a Wrangler JKU and it's definitely been an adjustment with nobody waving at each other.

 

PNW peeps, I would like to run OME 887 or 888’s my Question is, which set up would work best. I will most likely not be getting steel bumbers soon after the lift. I will have sliders and a shell though. Any help or other ideas appreciated.

 

If you’re going to get bumpers later I’d go with 886 coils. If not 888 would be the way to go. Dakar leafs for the rear.

 

I’m sure I’ll see you around since I’m in Lacey. Expect a wave. Gotta start the trend over here.

 

Looking for a Taco ext cab anyone know of one in OCD shape for sale? Lower mileage and willing to drive 2hrs for the right one in Oregon and Washington area.

 

Question for PNW Peeps...I’m not sure if this is already an option out there and I’m not aware but I was wondering if there is a person here in the PNW that has the OVTune Hardware Setup that loans theirs out to other members in the area for like $50 so new members of OVTune can just purchase a new license instead of the whole setup? I know the only draw back from not having your own hardware setup is flashing between 87/91 tune and flashing future upgrades, but I’m also thinking it’s a way that a member that has purchased the Full Tune Package can make some of their money back, while also saving local members. Again, this may be already going on and I’m just not aware. Please let me know. Thank You!

 

Interesting question... Yes, this would be something I would like to do too. Hope something will surface for us to share.
