TacomaDude's Truck

^ Sweet man!

 

Nice man, you ordered it brand new I'm assuming?

You get the 1100 EVO SP?

Do the duck bill chop, under slung exhaust, and put some MX bars on it and call it a day. The motard looks fantastic naked, imo.

 

It's a low mileage, one owner, 1100s with a full 2-1 Termignoni exhaust, race ecu, open intake etc.

I think if I were to go all out it would be similar to the NCR and make it light as possible, under 300lbs.

Sick

 

Nice truck, looks familiar.

 

Great looking truck TacomaDude! I dig it.

Did you ever run into any problems with those wheel spacers burning out your wheel bearings? I know its common on other makes of trucks.

 

Thanks man, sorry for the delayed reply!

Regarding wheel bearing issues, no, I've put close to 20k on them now and haven't had any issues. I check them every so often and there is zero play.

 

i got a quick question on your truck that looks great by the way!!! did u have to get new upper control arms to get ur alignmeant perfect. iv read that alot of people that get a lift of 2.5 inchs or more in the front cant quite get a perfect alignmeant. just wondering

 

Thanks, you don't have a bad looking truck yourself!

Nope, they're the stock UCA's. As far as I know, there were zero problems aligning it after the lift. It drives very tight and straight and does not pull to one side or the other while going down the road.

 

Thanks for the info Iv heard a lot of people needing them saved u $500 at least

 

Really like your truck. It is inspiration for me and my 99 (same color). And I like the chrome

 

Thanks a lot man! it is a great color.

 

i know its probably a stretch but by any chance do you remember what size/brand of lug nuts you have? I have the same 7069's as you but am using stock lug nuts and they stick out and look really bulky... in love with your truck by the way!!

 

Of course!

I bought them from Wheelers. You can purchase them here: You'll also have to purchase the splined drive socket that fits them, it's featured directly below the lugs in that link.

Thanks for comment! It's a lot of fun. Your truck looks great too! White is one of the best colors for these trucks and you're doing it the same as I would by running these rims.

 

sweeeet thanks for the fast reply man! got them ordered

 

Great looking truck. I'm doing similar suspension and wheel mods to mine in a couple of weeks - 3" lift, 285/75/16 tires with Pro Comp wheels. I like the wide stance look that the spacers give. Do you have any issues with the wheels rubbing the fender flares, frame, brake calipers, UCA's or wheel well? Some other threads lead me to believe that moving the wheels out might require trimming the fender flares slightly.

 

Looks Good man

 

You're on the right track about the wheels rubbing more when the tires are stuck out further. The scrub radius is increased causing them to rub.

Under a lot of flexing they will rub some. The place where they rub is the front plastic (valence) on the bumper. If I wanted to I could trim it to eliminate it but I'm going to be selling it soon and would rather leave it be.

Thanks man.

 

Why are you selling? Yours is in my top 5 of favorite trucks on TW!
