    SOLD Corbeau Seat Brackets for 1st Gen Tacoma

    thanks for the info. from the looks of things and my research, these are made for trucks that came with a factory 40/60 or buckets. I have a bench seat which has slightly different mounting locations.

    inexpensive 12v tire inflator

    update: I ending up buying a MasterFlow MF1050 from pepboys. I got it from their eBay store and it was right at 50 bucks shipped. http://www.ebay.com/itm/152007420849?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT my driver's front tire was a little low, turns out it was at...

    inexpensive 12v tire inflator

    for what its worth, the MV-50 (aka MF-1050) has some decent reviews from the offroad community. Id probably give this thing a chance before harbor freight. what about the viair 88P? any info/review? https://www.amazon.com/Viair-00088-88P-Portable-Compressor/dp/B005ASY23I also, it appears...

    inexpensive 12v tire inflator

    looking to get a tire inflator (air compressor) for the very few time i go offroad. unfortunately, it seems like ive been going once a year. so i dont really need anything that will be permanently mounted, just a compressor that will air me back up. im running 265/70/17 BFG KOs. not a huge tire...

    Supercharged 5VZFE and cooling

    do you have an idea of your EGTs or a/f ratio when youre climbing? you might be running a tad lean. running lean makes the EGTs shoot up, and thus a warmer running engine. just wondering. something else to consider.

    Easy and inexpensive air compressor mod

    looks awesome but i would think that if the stainless braid is touching the grille, it will start to eat through it. my buddy has something similar but his air nozzle is under the body (and above the frame). you have to know were to look. also has it plumbed to the rear of the truck as well.

    largest battery that will fit in a 2005 Tundra Dub Cab

    stock battery group size is 24F. anybody ran a different size (larger) in the factory spot? btw, im leaning towards the Die Hard Advanced Gold EP-34R Item # 02850733000P Model # 50733 its price is super attractive and CCA 775 shoud be just fine. unfortunately i dont see a reserve capacity...

    05 Tundra Questions

    i dont have any pics with the spacers on (i drove my tacoma today). i will tell you this. the tire sits just outside of the mud flap (just enough to fling tire sauce all over the place). as far as alignment goes, i have been going to mom and pop alignment shops for my trucks and its been...

    05 Tundra Questions

    nothing to look for. you have it. nuff said. when you lift the rear it extends the axle away from the body simulating a nose-dive during braking. what the valve does is to lower the brake pressure sent to the rear wheels to prevent lock up. the reverse happens when youre super loaded down...

    05 Tundra Questions

    first off. what tire size do you plan up going up to? the 165/70/17 you have right now is the largest size tire you can run with absolutely no issues. this is confirmed over and over. if yo uwant to go to a 285/70/17, there is mixed information about rubbing. in a nut shell, if its a street...

    power a home refrigerator with a Tacoma and huge inverter?

    yeah i need to figure it out. btw, my fridge is one of the "got to have" wifi enabled type. so yeah, it might be sensitive. i think the consensus is, my tacoma is sufficient to run the inverter (of correct size of course) however a gen-set is probably a better option for my stated needs...

    power a home refrigerator with a Tacoma and huge inverter?

    that HF genny is a gen-set but probably not something i would spend money on. and i dont believe the 20% coupons apply to generators (just like they dont apply to floor jacks) also, im comparing generators that provide "clean" power. most of the cheaper gennys cant provide power to sensitive...

    power a home refrigerator with a Tacoma and huge inverter?

    good point about the battery being able to cover the surge capacity needs. i have two trucks so in a bind i can always take the "other" truck. or even so, we can take my wifes RAV4. so thats not a huge concern. our freezer is literally full of either the "gold" or other food items with...
