If you haven't seen Dust to Glory....rent it, own it, I'll mail you my copy... whatever...it will get you amped for Baja. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UYwBHQHPN4&NR=1

You don't want to drive your buddy's race truck...you need to.

Saw it, bought it, own it, and watched it allot more. Love the movie. Oh I'm about 99% sure I'll get seat time at Baja time.

Alright, since I'm making a fool out of myself over on TN, I gotta wonder how did you get away running without UCA's. What were your alignment specs without them?

well my camber adjustments where as far as they could go on the truck. but alignment was ok. I still had a similar problem as on the forum but not as bad after the shop adjusted them.

Thanks, I'm not so worried anymore!

Nope no need to be worried.

There was a poster on TTORA that pointed out the fact that you are running an ARB locker in your rear axle - on a TRD Sport model? Is that correct?

ARB does not list a locker compatible with the Tacoma LSD axle (8.4"), so I was under the impression none was available. Can you clarify - what model ARB are you running in the rear, and is it on an LSD-equipped diff, or did you swap out axles or do something custom?

In other words, tell me more about your rear end :Wow1: :elkgrin:

ARB air locker pt number RD89 is the model I have. Axles and everything is still stock, The LSD gets ripped out and the new locker goes in.

New kenwood DNX 8120

picked up the truck today with the new Kenwood deck, kicks butt and the ipod control is amazing with my 80 gig, garmin navigation works really good too.

Sorry for the bad pictures, still figuring out the new Nikon in the dark.

Cool! Looks good.


I hadn't realized that you had the yaseu 1802 mounted right where I have it also!

The 8.4 is not the ring gear size nor is it any bigger than the Elocker models of the same vehicles. The Elockers have a different size carrier bearing on one side to accommidate the locking gear moved by the shift fork and the 8.4 dosen't. So it's just the way they seperate the two label wise.

yeah it about the only place to put a radio like that without doing allot of work. its fit great there and is easy to use. Plus all the wiring got hidden under the carpet. my radio is a Yaesu 2800, all-though the 1802 & 2800 look almost the same.
