Wisconsin Tacomas and bad financial advice

It’s only RWD. Dealbreaker.

 

I thought all Deavers are side specific. OMEs are as well. Dobinson's have those tapered ends that fix the problem of shackle/hanger contact (why tacos have that stupid hanger design is beyond me)

You make me proud. @Larry Dangerfield , armor up

 

If they are I either got lucky and installed them correctly by sheer dumb luck, or I got them wrong and need to go do it over. I don’t recall seeing this for stage 2 so if you confirm this please let me know…

Edit: Nevermind I found it easier than I thought. Only stage 3 are side-specific. I’m good.

 

Ope learned something new today

 

Thought I told you that

 

I am a slow learner

 

A lot of us are.
Cheers!

 

Put my sliders on for real. Still have some fabrication work to do for the bolt down on the transmission cross member and the ones up in the boxed area; however, due to the glup I am not interested in dealing with it just now... strong enough and cool as canned beans!

 

Those sliders look very unobtrusive. Very nice!

 

check pinion angle from before/after lifting -- i'd assume a CB spacer or shim will solve it before you go to a one-piece....i had similar shudder that was fixed with an angled shim.

 

Looks great! Awesome work!

 

yeah... I hope they are not to tight to the body line todo any good. Never really looked at sliders before I just decided to make some.

 

I like that they are tight to the body. It's actually ideal, in my opinion, to maintain as much ground clearance as possible. The only way I could see it being an issue is if they could flex and damage the body, or if they're so close it would be hard to clean between the slider and the body.

 

@WiscoPat we finally got to deploy the awning. Worked great!

 

Despite them being steel, they will flex with a hard enough hit.

 

Oh, I know. Mine come very close to the body when they flex. I noticed it when using the slider to lift it with a Hi-lift. Not one of my favorite experiences, but I learned some stuff.

 

So I finally splurged and picked up a 3rd gen. It’s only a 4 banger so the jury is still out.
