    McNeil fiberglass

    use or sell? How was shipping? Ive heard horror stories on LTL and even worse with greyhound. I was hoping that mcneil would be at ROC fest in barstow this october and i could have them bring a set of fenders. But they arent going. Im trying to find a safe (for the fenders) way to get a set of...

    New to bay area (Walnut Creek)

    I’ve got almost everything except a lift and a tire machine. But between race ramps and jack stands I’ve been able to get by. Let me know if I can be of assistance. I’m just in concord. Thur-sat are the best days as my wife is off to watch the kid

    Any tacoma’s On stock-33’s with 4.56 gears

    Which vehicle did you drive the 4.56 gears on 33’s? Do you happen to remember what the trans gear ratios were ( any, 1,2 and or 4,5,6 etc!)

    Lockers

    Yep, the Ox locker is a great fool proof piece. No electrical or air to go wrong. I wouldn’t drive around all day long with an ox or any locker locked 24/7. Especially if it’s daily driven or a non aggressive rock crawler. As for the LSD, it really depends. I had a rwd car with an r160 and...

    Lockers

    I’ve had Air lockers and electric lockers. I’ll never go back to Air lockers. Too many things to go wrong. As for your truck, if you have a limited slip diff now, all you really need is a little left foot brake to get the diff to lock up quicker and not spin so much. But back to what you’re...

    First Modifications/Add ons for general Overlanding?

    Superskidz for the truck are awesome and saved my oil pan on my zr2. 589 shock skids are awesome, as that is he lowest part of your truck. Tires are awesome, and you can run up to a 33 with a level kit. But that’s about it for easy truck stuff. Other than that, it’s safety, food, comfort gear...

    Any tacoma’s On stock-33’s with 4.56 gears

    It has been brought to my attention that the Tacoma guys possibly run 4.56 diff gearing on their 6 speed autos with stock to 33 inch tires. I’m wondering if anyone who is could chime in and let me know if it just feels too low? I’m eventually going to regear when I swap to 35’s, (I’m on 31’s...

    Bay Area radio sales?

    All the folks that run around here (“wheelin with friends” group)are using the gmrs. Which is how I even found out about it. I guess they are saying the gmrs has repeaters around here, they have better distance than the cb, have the weather, emergency etc, use the family transferable 10 yr lic...
