anyway, my buddy with a 3rd gen is selling his ARB front bumper. its not the prado bar like i've got, but the narrower tacoma/non big flare'd runner bumper. its pretty mint condition...never had a winch. heres a couple pix of it:

Hey Jesse,
If you're interested in seeing what a non-modified Tacoma Arb bumper looks like on a LTD check out this member's site.

Damn, I wish this came up earlier. This is a good price, considering I just bought one for $1100 after taxes (and I guess duties and shipping).

anyone else? jesse? eric?

Hey ejn184 and steve welcome to the BC portion of Yotatech. Looks like we are going to have more peeps here this year.

I'm still in debate whether to do a spacer lift or a full OME lift. I'm missing out on so many runs while I decide. real bummer.

Dave, still debating about spacer or full lift?
To me, I like a light trails not difficult one. So as soon I save money I will go for spacer and bigger tires.

hey mkool..where ya been?

so is anyone up for a meet & greet bbq & beer or something? maybe get the trucks dirty n go up some easy trails? im thinkin of going to stave...or something like that. hopefully in the next month or so? maybe most of the snow will be gone by then.

i was thinking stave since it should be in a stocker friendly area & its not too far east. lots of places to play around in too, as well as a decent easy trail to the lookout. that way everyone can bring out their rides without worrying about breaking something. just make sure ya gots some front & rear tow points. CB and/or FRS helps alot too. if ya havent been there before..it can be and usually is quite a gong show...but still lotsa fun!

anyway...just throwin that out there. definitely a great opportunity to meet the BC ytech'r...all 6 or 7 of us
