    yeah, it's tough too because there aren't any easily identifiable and common "A HAH" factors that would make them be a clear douchebag, besides nobody in their circle of friends taught them to not be a douchebag. I mean it comes down to taking the high road in talking to a person and saying hey, that's not the best idea because xyz trail has been closed off before because of dickhead actions. But then again, let's be realistic, who wants to take the high road when I could just blast their instagram account? :crapstorm:

    yeah I remember that, was glad we figured it out and it was an easy fix. Then Chris @Sandtaco decided to check his UCA bolts and his were nearly hand loose too, lol. So naturally I figured I should check mine but they were tight because 1st gen best gen

    oh so freakin' Americas Tire just told me today that they have to order my new st Maxx tires from Texas and that they won't be here until mid next week....I went ahead and ordered a regular Cooper Discoverer though in the same size which should be in tomorrow so I'll still be good for Big Bear this weekend. Hopefully I don't blow another lol. Still won't have a full size spare until the St Max come in but at least now I won't be rolling on one 32" tire and screwing up my alignment/tire wear

    255/85r16, true 33" skinny tire....the guy on the phone asked me twice what kind of trailer I was using them on. Kept telling him it was for my Tacoma and he couldn't comprehend it lol

    hmm I'm not sure...I got rid of most of the rub from the skinny 33s by trimming the cab corner, only rubs when fully turned and stuffed so it would probably do the same with a wider 33. Maybe worse...but hey if you have it with you and I blow another tire I'd rather try that one than put on a smaller tire again lol. Made the 200+ mile trip home from Coyote Flats a chore, kept having to hold the truck to the left to keep it straight. At high speed in desert winds that's no fun

    I use the Super lube spray on my TC UCAS bushings. It's been about 3 months and no squeaks at all. All the greasing for the bushings didn't do shit for the squeaks but spraying on the bushings stopped the sounds immediately. It dries to a waxy coating :thumbsup:

    So you don’t even use the zirks to apply the lube? Simply spray it on?
