Ohhh, purrty


What happen to the camper ??
lol

 

The camper is sitting in my driveway. I also have a supercharger and some sliders to throw on there.

 

Wow thats a nice tacoma. I really like that bumper and good choice on the winch. Ive got the same one and it works great. We should go wheeling sometime. How far out in the valley do you live? You going to pismo this weekend?

 

BMC, Carmel representing! I live near the village. Sure, I'd like to go wheeling sometime. Especially Chew's when the snow hits. Is there something big happening at Pismo this weekend? I wasn't planning on going.. Edit I found it here: http://www.ultimateyota.com/index.ph...6&topic=4811.0 Looks like a fun party! Did you go last year?

How has the winch worked out for you? Any problems? Mine was $280 shipped from winch depot. I couldn't pass it up. Now they make a 10,000 lb one.

No i didnt go last year. Yeah it looks like its going to be a lot of fun this weekend. Im going to be heading out real early on sat morning. If you dont have anything going on you should head down there. Its always funner rolling with other yotas down the highway.

The winch has worked great. Its been on for about 4 months now and i have already used it twice. It did exactly what its suppose to do. My only complaint is that its already getting rusty. I guess if it gets too bad i will take it out and give it a good paint job. Im probably going to replace the allen head bolt with some stainless steel ones. They look pretty bad.

Yeah if ever go wheeling shot me a pm. Do you ever go out to hollister?

 

Dude, check my sig line.

Im hittin that up, you should too

 

There is a Carmel Valley down here too, I was wondering why I hadn't seen your rig yet. I've always liked those bumpers. Good quality.

 

That look so good man..How much does that bumper weigh ? Your truck is looking bad ass....

 

I've been to Hollister a couple of times. My bro is picking up a 98 std cab 4 cyl 4x4 taco tomorrow. I'm sure he will want to go to pismo or hollister soon! Maybe pismo saturday. Bummed to hear about the winch rust. Let me know if you find any stainless allen screws..

my bro and I will try for Saturday! Have fun. I'll look for your truck if I go...
Yeah.. Your CV is not the real CV. lol Just a road. J/k I've been there.. Nice place Have you been to the real CV before?

Thanks for the compliment on the bumper. It is rough on the inside especially after my friend had to lower it 2" on the frame mounts (it was made for a 2" body lift.).. lol

Bumper and winch prolly weigh something like 160 pounds. Not light, but I have the 2.5 racerunners on w/ 650 (tundra) springs. Although I've heard they all come with 650's now. How's the S/C treating you? Your pocket book? Preimum is $ duckets now days. I still have mine to put on. My next project before or after the Demallo sliders. Might wait for the economy to pickup or the gas prices to drop before I do put the S/C on.. lol..

 

wew thats really nice lookin how do youlike the synthetic lead?

 

Thanks! Synthetic line works great! It doesn't rust or splinter like the cable nor does it weigh as much. The synthetic line can fray if you scrape it against anything. I am having a hard time with the allen screw that holds the line to the winch. When I reel it in I need to make sure the line doesn't brush against it.

 

Yeah, I lived in Santa Cruz for 8 years, (Hence the name SC for Santa Cruz) I have been to Carmel Valley up there, very nice!

 

Thats a sick tacoma man... I wish I had a tacoma instead of a runner sometimes but I work with what I have...

 

Thanks man!

Here are some more current pictures:










You should look around for a cheap Tacoma and mod the piss out of it.

Something like this: http://sacramento.craigslist.org/ctd/1167785244.html

Keep your runner for a daily driver. I had a 96 runner. Loved it!

 

Yeah a tacoma is going to be my next rig... Im modding the piss out of my 4 runner now though haha I liek my 4 runner alot but im a truck guy and love having a bed to throw crap in and just the looks of a truck ya know???

 

anyone know how to locate a bentup for an 03 taco? their site says they've closed shop.
