What have you done to your Tacoma today? 1st Gen Edition

When I was driving a box truck I had one retread fail in 15 years. I suspect because I drove it for a solid week with 0psi in it (hole in the sidewall). We did notice a marked reduction in tread life from the retreads versus new, but no other performance issues.

 

retreads get such a bad rep. with technology these days they are pretty nice.
treadwright.com has some nice truck tires.

 

Got all my stuff to install my willson superflex antenna. I just need to make up a bracket to mount it, then figure out how to attach it to the bed. Still not sure if I want it by the cab or out by the tailgate.

I got a folding mount BTW.

 

Yeah I think Im gonna do it by the cab, easier cable routing and I think it will look better since I don't have a shell.

 

Mine will go in the bed. On the bed rack i hope..

 

we'll see what it looks like this weekend... I just got my antenna and im doing it at the tailgate without a cap

 

That would be cool, Im going to take a look at it tomorrow. My truck has a drop in bed liner in it right now so I can't really see up under the rail.

Ill probably end up cutting a hole in the liner for the bracket to come through.

Cool, look forward to it.

 

Ever thought about ditching the liner and getting a rubber bed mat? Or do you like the liner?

 

x2 I've heard nothing but good things about them. And cheap too. I'm thinking of picking up some KM2 "copies" of them this summer to use as a mudder tire.

 

Got my new bed boxes in the mail today! 12"x12"x48." Going to put them in the bed length wise with, hopefully, enough room to fit my dirtbike between them.


And Corvallis is indeed a little soggy.

 

Holy flooding!!

And were did ya get those lovely boxes

 

Been looking for storage options myself, where'd you pick those up? How much $?

 

Why are you looking for storage? You had a perfectly good toolbox before I stole it from you

 

When I bob the bed, gotta move the tire carrier up, not much room for a standard toolbox.

 

Get a bumper...haha

 

As soon as my ex-wife leaves me alone so I can move to WI where I have the tools to do it.

 

I have full custody of our son and now she wants to go back to court to try and get full custody for herself. I was supposed to move to WI 9 days ago.

 

derp

 

Sportsmen's Wharehouse for $110ish per.

The plan is to have them length wise in the bed with enough space between them for my dirtbike.

Yea, classes at OSU just got cancelled tomorrow because of the weather. I'll never fail to be impressed with the Willamette Valley's inability to cope with any sort of weather.

 

Nice man! I have a big ass arm container as well im going to incorporate into my bed rack till i can afford a RTT. Might have to get one of these too tho...

Wish i could fin a slim one that was like wide and low for the roof.



And Ben it was just slappin back lol
