I would guess "no" for a manual transmission.

This is perfect timing. We're currently looking at Chalet, A-Liner, Rockwood/Forest River & Jayco hardwall pop-up campers. I wasn't worried about the FJ, but was a little concerned about how our Tacoma would do pulling it :ylsmoke:.

I know it does on my '03 4-door.

Cooper S/T Maxx on my '03 Tacoma -

They flex......

Since most of the fence post above the spade section wouldn't be doing any work, I guess one could cut the post a couple feet above the spade to avoid carrying an entire fence post (for us space-challenged types).

When I replaced my serpentine belt (due to age/regular scheduled maintenance) I threw the old one behind the seat of my truck. It wasn't visually damaged and that's one item that could definitely stop you in your tracks on newer vehicles. A couple zip ties around it and it takes up very little...

You may want to encourage "Box Rocket" to chime in here, he seems to have a really good design and has spent a lot of time on this issue.

Has anyone had any experience with the Son of Hibachi with the fire proof bag? http://www.amazon.com/Son-Hibachi-Combo-Snuff-Pouch/dp/B000AQK0AY

That's a nice looking truck.

Going off memory, I believe the Cooper's perform as good, if not better than the Duratracs did in the snow. It may also have something to do with the new size that I'm running (235/85R16)?

Got to test them out on ice & snow this morning, nothing short of impressive :ylsmoke:. In 2WD they hook up really good, they even did great on the black ice.

It's going to happen if you use them......invest in some factory touch up paint pens and let it rock :sombrero:

I can say that my most fond memory of a trip consisted of a basically stock Jeep Cherokee on 31" BFG AT's up at Tellico in the middle of the night in a snow storm. The bigger and more capable my rigs got, the more bored and focused on vehicle performance I got. It kind of made me forget to...

I've never been a real fan of these contraptions, in my experience it ends up being the first thing you get hung up on. A simple e-locker actuator guard will provide adequate protection from a small rock or stick flying up and striking it. I have seen differential housing abused for decades...

I've kept the drivetrain, engine, etc. stock on my Tacoma. Thank goodness it came stock with a rear e-locker. I've added some light trail armor, slight lift & more aggressive tires.

Yeah I couldn't get past that either, all that plastic is screaming to get torn to shreds.....looks like they were going for some funky fighter jet look or something.

I've ran a lot of popular brand tire over the years and I rate the Cooper S/T maxx's right up there with some of the best I've experienced. I just got my 235/85R16's for $783.76 out the door (for four tires) at our local Discount Tire. I did get some credit for three of my Duratracs though...

Color me unimpressed.......at best

17" wheels were always my preference. The 16.5" seemed too limited on tire options for us, considering how far we would travel from home it our truck. I can't remember the specifics about them now, but wasn't there was something different on the beads with the 16.5"?
