Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

Oh sure now you post those! I literally just ordered the whole Dobinsons IMS kit this morning. Had to get the order in before the new year price increase. I do appreciate it though.

 

Awesome! What springs did you go with?

 

I went with the 352's as I'm planning on a front bumper and some skid plates in the nearish future as well.
A big thanks to you and @CygnusX191 for your contributions to the Dobinsons thread. It has been super informative.

The Tacoma World curse holds true. Come here and make friends and they will help you spend money

I've completely changed my plans for mods since the last pipeline outing.

 

Ready to have some real fun eh? And down the rabbit hole you go..... lol

 

I've been out of the loop for a few years. I thought the pipeline had closed awhile back?

 

Did they give you time frame for shipping? You'll probably get yours before I get mine.

 

I have no idea. Some of the items are listed as backordered and the good folks at Exit Offroad are on holiday until the 3rd. According to the order receipt email sounds like I will be contacted in the new year.
I'm in no rush, just wanted to get it on order with all the continuing supply chain issues.

 

Some parts are closed, but other parts are open.

 

Awesome! Great job! Looking forward to seeing you flex test them.

That's awesome!

Like @Pixeltim mentioned, some sections are closed. Your best bet is to download the MVUM maps to see who's allowed where, and when. Probably about 50% of the main trail is still open, but you have to run it piece by piece. There are also a bunch of other Forest roads up in that District that are entertaining.

 

I'm in no rush also. With everything I'm putting on the Taco I'm going take it out of action for a couple of days. I have to put a exhaust on my backup vehicle first.

What color coils are you getting?

 

I went with the teal coils just because I think that really makes them stand out as Dobinsons. Depending when I get my kit I will probably look to install it in spring. I would much rather do it over a couple of nice days in the driveway vs in the garage with a torpedo heater. Plus it give me some time to see about getting some other parts together.

 

What all are you putting on? Coilovers, leaves, and rear shocks can all be done in just a few short hours with a buddy and basic tools

 

Yes, coilovers, rear springs, shocks and ECGS bushings. I don't really expect it to take more than a day. A buddy of mine wants to help to see the whole process for when he does his. We both build machinery for a living, so the work should go smoothly.

 

Sweet

 

Since you'll have to get an alignment that's also the time to pull out the lower control arms alignment bolts and slather them up in antiseize! They are notorious for rusting tight.

 

This. CAKE those suckers

 

Noted! Thanks for the heads up.

 

If your hands look like the tin man, you know you've done a good job

 

That's just after taking the cap off lol.

 

the bigger the gob the better the job!
