Isnt this forum for yota's that are wheeled?
I just get really tired of seeing perfectly good toyota trucks getting dropped to the ground with big a#s rims like its fast and the furious or something.
Poor toyota's.

Thanks, but i used what looked like a giant rubber eraser on a compressor that we got off a friend who runs the body shop at the dealership my step dad works at. But it didn't fully take off the some of that goo, we took some wheel acid that we had from the detail shop and took a good majority of it off. but we used very little and we would put it on rag. And the rest overtime came off from a regular wash. If you get right up next to it you can still kinda of see it but its nothing that i'm to worried about.

Oven Cleaner also works wonders on adhesive - just wear gloves and don't let it sit on there for more than 10-15 minutes (I let it soak for 2-3 minutes then just wiped the adhesive off with an old credit card) . . . didn't harm the paint at all on my '88

the door panels took a long time to get ahold of because the upholsterer sold 3 other sets that were supposed to be mine to other people...anyways i finally got some and am some what happy with them but they could be better.

My 94 2wd. basically stock so far, waiting on my tax return to get some lift. Going with 1.5" ball joint spacers, new shocks,(.5"?) adjusting torsion bars, maybe 3" lift spindles, and 4" leaf spring hangers out back.

A number of reasons (in no particular order):
It's what I have
I live in AZ it rains 3 inches a year (barely ever mud)
It only snows once every 30 years
I want to go jump sand dunes in the desert
I need more ground clearance to get to some campgrounds around here
better MPG
