Mark's DC Tacoma

What about the dunlop rovers in 255/85? You will need to regear though.

I think 4.88's are a good choice for highway mileage and cruising. ARB is a wise choice too. You will regret not doing that at the same time.

I dont use mine much, but it is nice to know it is there.

Man, your truck is looking so incredible :clapsmile

I'm not sure how well this is going to work for you guys to view. If anybody has any suggestions or anything please let me know.

about the clip: This is when we arrived to laurel lakes in the beginning of July. It was past 1am and my rock lights were on. This was the first time I videotaped with the OB cameras :victory:

Oh man, that is soooo cool! :Wow1: The vid loaded super fast for me too.

 

[Mlachica]

Thanks a plenty for the compliments :victory: Hopefully on the next trip I'll get some better footage

Have you had personal experience with those tires? I read a pretty good review on them HERE.

I'm definitely going to regear, even if I stay with 32's. Fully loaded it's just too heavy for stock gearing.

And yes, the added security of the arb would be nice, just like the snorkel

With my mileage somewhere sub 16 I think it's time to look for a daily driver. I just got the okay from my lovely wife to get an older 4runner 86-9? Then I'll have the option to go with a solid axle swap or long travel

A bit off topic because it's not about your truck, but for some reason I could not get the video to play? I dowloaded the latest version of Flash Player and can get other flash movies to play from the net but all I see is a picture of your two back tire. No moving :ar15: , any suggestions?

Cheers :beer:,

Yes, that's right above because it looks cool.

I thought it was because chicks dig snorkels

I'm not sure how exactly it works. I just click on the link and it opens a new window with its own player and it either automatically plays or you click on the player for it to start. Maybe somebody can chime in with some guidance

Nevermind!

I just tried it again and it worked fine. I don't know what happened the first time. Very cool video and it did load super fast.

ammo can

I finally mounted an ammo can on my rear bumper. I'll eventually put my license plate there. I don't like the way the plate hangs below the bumper.

I'm not quite sure what I'll put in there. Maybe recovery stuff like straps and shackles or I may just fill it with poop when I camp.

And here's a picture of the locking mech.

 

[kcowyo]

That's a lot of poop!

Mark, your truck is amazing.... :drool:

Top notch, from stem to stern. The video was great and loaded quickly for me. This has been a great mod thread to follow!

:bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

 

[p1michaud]

I spy with my little eye...

Something that keeps things cold. Is that an Fridge Freeze I see hiding behind the spare tire? Is that it's permanent home/location?

Looking good. That would be a great place for a strap and some shackles. Easy access. Just don't put anything that could be stolen in there.

Wow!!!

Your truck is truly outstanding! :bowdown:
