[IMG][/IMG] A few weeks ago I installed a Clinometer/ Altimeter in my Tacoma and I have been looking at the Pitch and Roll gauges and thinking....Why not use pics of "MY" Tacoma on them?
Been doing some playing with pics and I have the size down just right. Now I'm thinking of useing white contact paper to print them on and then I can just cut them out round at 1 3/4" and peel and stick.
Also been thinking about making the back ground on the pics behind the truck black. What do you think? Mike

If your serious.....Do it! It's your truck! If you don't like it, just peel it off.
Be sure to post pics!! I gotta see this.....

It will be a few days but will post some pics. On another site a guy was selling pics of 4 runners or Tacomas for $20.00 ready to place on your gauges. Mike

The average vehicle roll will be at around 22-25 degrees for most of us. some vehicles can take up to a 30 degree before there is a danger but I would stick with 25 degrees. Check out Gryphon Group Security Solutions website, I have been to there driving course and they have rollover simulators and they let you 'feel' when you're about to roll over. It's an expensive course but pretty awesome...

Curious to see the pics...

way to bump a 4.5yr old thread, and it's not 22-25 degrees for our vehicles, i've had mine over 30degrees dozens of times and no flop.

I can get my altimeter/clinometer to 30degrees on the street

nice... my excuse is boredom... remember you CAN go past 30 but in a stock vehicle that is the margin of safe travel and not worrying about a rollover. Toyotas can take a rollover anyway; had a diesel Hilux roll off a narrow mountain road and fall 20' into a stream on it's side; broke the glass and a few dents but after we pulled it out it ran fine

Also I was wrong about the 22-25, I remember now it was 27 being the 'average' for a truck/suv

I think stock your gonna be less likely to roll due to lower center of gravity.

When it comes down to it, angle just gives you an idea at where you might roll at, knowing where your center of gravity is will tell you when you are going to roll. That point is when your COG is outside the foot print of your truck.
