    Re-gear with 33”s

    True but I don't think too many will go from 3.73 to 4.10s it's a small jump for a lot of money. My wrangler would go from 3.07 to 4.10s, there you're getting an additional full rotation of the drive shaft per rotation of the tire increasing gearing by 33% for 4.10 and that's a huge difference...

    Re-gear with 33”s

    In case anyone cares.... @ 2.50$ per gallon (cost of 87 fuel here) 13mpg cost .19$ per mile and 19mpg cost .13$ per gallon. .06$ difference and @ 15,000 miles per year = 900$ so you could potentially pay for your regear in about 3 years depending on how many miles you do, obviously the more you...

    Wildpeak 265 75r 16 with trd wheels!

    That’s what happened with my current truck, but the older I get the less I’ll be lifting so I can still get in it. If I could I’d be on 40’s but the 6’ ladder welded to the side of the truck so I can get in might not look so good

    Wildpeak 265 75r 16 with trd wheels!

    Cool thanks.... my thought is to stay with 265/75 but it’s always so hard not going with 33s

    Wildpeak 265 75r 16 with trd wheels!

    Doesn't the Pro rim have 1/2" less backspacing ? I thought I read that the Pro had a 1" wider track and was accomplished by the rims having 1/2" less backspacing making it an inch wider track.. 285 is about an inch wider than a 265 so I was thinking it wouldn't rub on anything on the inside. Is...

    Looks great, and I've been hearing a lot of good things about the wild peaks. Update, after having them a while, with an overall review.

    Update on 3" lifting in my Taco

    That's basically my plan (3"max)and really didn't know any of the issues with lifting new tacomas, and certainly not arguing the greatness of body lifts just stating small BL can be useful, apparently just not on a newer tacoma :) Now I know..

    Update on 3" lifting in my Taco

    I haven't lifted a 2nd or 3rd gen tacoma yet so I see what you're saying about the mount being in the way but as far as the body lifts go they do have uses in other applications, on my TJ Wrangler a 1.25" body lift and motor mount lift give you the ability to do a tummy tuck and get rid of the...

    Update on 3" lifting in my Taco

    Agree and disagree... tall body lifts look terrible especially when you can see clear through between the body and frame, but theres nothing wrong with a 1"-2" body lift that will give you the extra room for clearance so nothing rubs. Not that easy to make a lot of room for tires with IFS, you...

    Update on 3" lifting in my Taco

    Not a big fan of body lifts but a 2” body lift helped me with this exact problem, different trucks but same problem. 3” suspension wasn’t enough with my pro comp rims and the body lift made it all work. With the tube steps I put on, you can’t really notice the body lift. Some sliders would do...

    Update on 3" lifting in my Taco

    1.25" wheel spacer should be closer to 3.25" backspacing and that will make rubbing a big problem.

    Medical in your Taco

    I keep some sort of first aid kit in all my cars and buy small travel kits for vacation too. Could take forever waiting for help in some places. I have the biggest kit that would fit under my seat I'm the truck

    Hello

    Wish it would be sooner than later but I just decided to buy a new CNC Router that will probably put the truck off a bit, but hopefully not too long.

    Hello

    I saw the color online but can get a good appreciation without seeing it, but it doesn't look like its going to be dark enough. Im really starting to like the dessert sand color in Off Road with a set of Icons up front to level and maybe improve the ride a bit should be great. I also need the...

    Gen 3 Remote Start

    I had an older Alpine Bluetooth nav/ radio that would pick up my phone about 2 in 10 remote starts. Got in the habit of stepping on the brake to shut it off and restart with the key to have the phone hookup, you get used to it... not really that big of a deal. I did replace that head unit with...

    Best tires?

    Also like I said, I've never had a problem so I can't verify if service was good or bad, but I would buy from them again
