"Wheeler's Anonymous"

I shudder to think about how much more I'm going to spend. haha

 

I feel that way about my tires and suspension.

I feel like I have to punish myself and get my $'s worth out of the 5100's before I replace them.

Or maybe justify doing one end at a time. hmmm....

 

I don't have complaints. I just want to squeeze out as much travel as possible. So the 5100's will have to go.

 

I have the very same problem in the front with my 5100's. Small hole or coming off of a small rock and it's instant bottom out thud time.

 

885's at 0.85. Not very happy with them. I've considered swapping them out with 887's but feel like I'd just be spending more on something I want to replace.

 

my friend a long time ago turned his washer fluid things around and would spray people in the cross walks.... lol

 

People around here run red lights when they are turning right. They'll tap the brakes and roll right through it and come out right in front of you. Cops are getting lots of red light tickets due to this. They don't even stop past the limit line, they just roll through and get a hefty red light ticket

But, I had to drive into LA and Beverly Hills on Tuesday and HOLY SHIT those people all drive like assholes ALL THE TIME!! This one guy in a black Escalade sat in the right turn lane with his left blinker on.... when it turned green we all turned left and he just turned left and merged into the car beside him. She hit her brakes and he just merged on in as if it was his right of way... I don't get it.

 

Why you taking my my idea homie?..Love blasting fools with the washer fluid cause they don't get it at first. Then once they realize it the reactions are priceless.

 

2016s are currently using the same 5100s that the 2nd gens use right? I read on another thread that Bilstein is releasing 5100's specifically for the 3rd gens soon, something about the valving being changed to better suit the 2016+ Tacoma. Not sure if that would help the issue you guys are describing but maybe?

 

Probably, but I think I'd rather by coilovers to solve my problems upfront. Going to do it at some point anyways.

 

my rigid reverse lights keep everyone off my ass now. Try not to use it cause I could get in some serious trouble but they work so good.

 

Yeah dude, it's terrible out here. So many bad drivers it's ridiculous. I do my best to be as defensive as possible, also learning that patience is key. Have to give the idiots and assholes the room they need to do their stupid shit or risk being a victim to it.

The red light thing is a plague as well. I'll admit, I got busted for it once years ago. Was a huge ticket (right hand turn on red without stopping all the way). Was the same ticket as blowing through an intersection red light (over $500). Haven't made that mistake since lol.

 

You know some nice bump stops will really help out if your bottoming out. Stock ones are as hard as a rock with no cushion.

 

Bottoming out isn't the biggest annoyance is the hard thud that comes when the droop maxes out.(not sure what to call that)

 

my wife is going to get one and I'll just say, "I told you so"

 

Sounds about right.

 

Here's a solution to your problems. I'll hook you guys up with the homie discount!
