The 5 guys who BS on the forum BS Thread

My clear shows up Wednesday now. Will finish fenders that night and then sand and polish sat and install

 

so... much... math... homework...

brain is turning to mush.

 

i just want to buy truck parts

 

I'm running out of shit to buy. I want 3" LT from TC. Then I'll be done besides little shit.

 

i'm looking at adding an ARB front bumper and a Hilux 167 Snorkel (different than the tacoma arb version, and about 300 bones less). Want to take care of some maintenance as well. Need to get O2 sensors changes, new muffler installed, clean IAC Valve, and check up on repairing the bell cranks for my parking brake. I'd also like to get my front windows tinted finally.

I have a buddy that's done tons of ARB equipment installs so it would be a breeze to have done, but he is all the way in Mississippi. Not sure if I can swing it all or what. I need to sit down, do some number crunching and play it by ear. I'd really like to get the ARB to replace the brush guard I have up front. Get some real protection up there. Snorkel is more or less just because it looks cool. So it's not "necessary". Common sense says fix parking brake and everything else but damn does it get old fixing shit all the time.

/thinking out loud.

LT would be a cool way to cap off the prerunner look of your rig. Maybe next look for a 4.7 Supercharger. Just because. Lol. Not sure if that's your style or not.

 

to be honest id rather the rain, i don't mind snow, i like it to tell the truth, but the damn salt and crap that turns everything to brittle pieces of metal that once was whole... i wish they'd just plow and let everyone figure it out

 

Gotta swap out my springs in the AM... Gonna suck

 

Right now it's a good mid travel. I don't think I'll do more than that honestly. It's not crazy and is capable with whatever I want to do with it. Dreaming would be the LT kit. But then I have to rebuy all the coilovers and stuff.

 

screw you apple, screw you iTunes, screw you iPod. did i want the iTunes update, sure i did. did i want you to erase my library and playlists? no. i didn't, and i don't think anyone else who did the update would have liked that. maybe make a pop up next time saying "hey were gonna delete all your shit, ok?" so i can say no, not ok.

end rant

 

not in the itunes files on the hard drive? My update didnt delete anything.

 

my iphone keeps skipping random songs i bought off itunes. updated the ios and it still does it. wtf.

 

Installing stock rear shocks and they won't go on the peg on the axle. Grr

Swapped the springs though. 2011 4R rear springs sit high lol



And yes, I just finished for the night at 2:30AM, in the snow

I'll break out the BFH tomorrow and get those fuckers on.

 

i have them all on the hard drive and copied them over, but everything was gone

 

here ya go sam

 

very helpful, much appreciate.

 

fuck all that

 

x2 thank god I grew up in the south

 

but you'll never know the wonderful fun that is drifting in the snow

 

California has something really cool, its called climates.

 

We have "hot and humid" and "not so hot but still humid" and that's about it climate wise.

 

we've got seasons over here, 100* in the summer, -15* in the winter, and somewhere in-between for spring and fall. id rather it this way to be honest, but might be a product of never knowing any different

lol get off the island and move inland

 

Where I'm at goes 28-115 and I'm 30 min from SF which is 50s all year long and bitter cold and then 3 hours from Tahoe where it snows 20+ feet a year. My grandma lives in the snow, it's fun but it'd get old. I'll take my random rainy weekends and back to 73 like today.

 

don't get me wrong, it gets cold here. but i do like snow and heat

 

Currently it's 12, it feels like -2, and I've had over a foot of snow since yesterday.

We've gotten about 75" of snow in the last 3 weeks

 

Oh, and more snow is on the way for Thursday and the weekend

 

I will when I move to Florida, where the two seasons are still hot and humid, and cold that doesn't make sense because it's Florida.

 

x3 on the fuck all that

 

Glad I'm getting rid of her. Sunroof is leaking

 

ffffuuuu thats one of my bigger fears.
