The Dirt Taco: From Mobile Meth Lab to Righteous Rock Crawler

Saved 42 pounds going from the 37's to 35's. Is that per tire? Or as a whole?
21 degrees on the tie rod down to 4. Nice.

 

I don’t know for sure, but I do know that the Interco Super Swampers in a 37” would have probably been close to 85 lbs per tire and 35” k02’s weight about 68 lbs. Plus the wheels that were originally on it are probably a good bit heavier that those TRD replicas. If I had to guess it’s probably 42 per wheel.

 

He says per tire in the vid

 

He said per corner which means the actual wheel weight as well since both sets were complete, he just weighed the whole unit. Those beadlock wheels were most of the weight, likely.

 

I wish this guy lived near me. Id pay him to work on my truck. Great video.

 

Kudos.

I couldn't do half the shit he did. I also wouldn't have the patience......

 

I’m still shocked he didn’t pull the front clip to get that engine out/in. He even took the radiator out.

 

As soon as the engine blew it became a dumpster in the trailer park.

 

I'd just like hang out in his garage every night. I'll bring the beer!

 

Great advice to cut the ziptie at a 45 degree angle lmao

 

Great update! I can’t believe the previous owner ran the supercharger on the stock NA tune!

 

Just watched all 4 videos. Just crazy

 

Funny contrast with this series of videos and some folks here that complain about the smallest little item on their truck. The kids doing great work with that truck and I’m sure that 3rd gen will make an awesome off road beast! Certainly don’t have to worry about the paint and bush burn on that truck.

 

Exactly. Judging by their other vehicles, it's more purpose build than show. Which is fine. I just hope the cost overall justifies it. Then the paint and such is a super easy and cheaper fix

 

lots of people on this site with undiagnosed mental illnesses.

 

If you think about the mods...big coin in that area

 

This series has been a great watch and I subscribed after his first video.

I also want to know what crackhead had that truck before him? Whoever it was put a million bucks in mods but not a damn one was done correctly.

 

Probably had a "friend" who had a "friend" that did suspension, etc.. Save $500 to ultimately spend $2K more type shit..

 

Lol yep. Everyone “Knows a guy” who can do it cheaper.

 

Yea.. all you have to do is watch YouTube to be an expert. Everyone knows that.
