    Archived Who needs armor for their Tacoma? 4 Wheel Parts might have you covered... for free!

    Long story short, I've been into the offroad since 9 y.o. with my 1987 Yamaha champ 100cc atv. The growing interest about Toyota pick up was to carry my atv's to the dunes and some new trails. The dad of my best friend had a Black 1982 pick up that we have use to carry our atv and motocross...

    Hesitation problem anyone in the same boat?

    OV Tune 2.0 is good but with KD Maxx, it's a Tacoma like it should be. It's now alive. The pedal is more sensitive for about 1/4 the travel, normal driving feels alot better. City driving it stays in gear alot more, it's now always there. I assume they adjust the injection timing/throttle to...

    Hesitation problem anyone in the same boat?

    OV 2.0 ECT on does help but I'm really considering regear. I'll try KDmax tune first. I've got another related shifting problem, and I wish the KD tune correct this. If I'm cruising down the road at 60 and floor it to pass, the drive by wire wait a full 2 seconds to "discuss" with the trans and...

    What's in the Eibach box?😆

    Here's the follow up! This eibach 2.0 suspension is great with the icon aal and Timbren active off road bumpstops. Loaded for vacation (pics below) the truck kept his good manners with 1500 pounds of payload including the girlfriend, the dog and my 150 pounds rock sliders. It hit the bumpstops...

    What's in the Eibach box?😆

    Here's an update about the Eibach coilovers 2.0/sport shock with Icon aal. It is awesome! Now the truck feel planted, there's alot less body rool and the ride is more rafined. The saggy boat lean is gone. It is a firmer ride because of the valving but not stiff at all. The suspension transmit...

    Hesitation problem anyone in the same boat?

    So here's the way I got multiples hesitations with and without fuel pump recall and OVtune or not! When I pass someone at 45-50 mph if I need 3/4 or full throttle (tried both) I have a delay of response near 2 seconds! When it finally goes downshift in 2nd at goes in high rpm range than it...

    What's in the Eibach box?😆

    This is the pro truck coilover 2.0 kit so you can adjust the preload (heigh) on the truck. I live in Quebec, Canada I order all my truck parts from lowriders.ca. they dont mess around with price and service!

    What's in the Eibach box?😆

    I can't wait to try these Eibach coilovers 2.0 and the sport rear shocks with the Icon AAL and sumo bump stops! I'm so tired of nose dive, the lean when cornering...and riding the rear bump stops on any whoops more than 4 inch deep 😆 and only 500 pounds in the truck including me! The Taco has...

    Performance Suspension Bump stop

    I saw the Wheelers youtube video and they do a great job! Problem is, it's a pita to get these in Canada! We have thousands of miles of fire road but only Timbren or Sumo springs available. Just yesterday I've hit the stock bump stop at least 10 times. My girlfriend is tired of that🤷‍♂️ I can't...

    Timbren Active Off Road Bump Stops: Do you need them?

    I'm looking at this exact kit from Timbren (ABSTRFK). Do you have updates and comments with a 2in lift? I saw your video by the way, very well made👍

    Performance Suspension Bump stop

    Any of you guys using the active off road bump stops from Timbren? Not the SES ones...I dont tow heavy weight. I'm running around 1000 pounds of payload on my trip in the wood and l like to have a blast on fire road! It's my next clic on my Taco mods!

    3 leaf AAL or full leaf pack for OEM King 2.5 and other RR shocks

    Got it👍 It's a decision that can't be taken lightly...Mesure twice, cut once. Maybe I will buy a center bearing drop kit too and/or leaf shims.

    Finally got my rock sliders on!

    Long story short, I've read alot about rock sliders! The top 3 was CBI, RSG, ALL-PRO. Yes even if the reviews were 50/50 on ALL-PRO customer service... They had a sale going on and the external tube is DOM and got filler plate too. So the on july 7 I've purchase them because of the fact that...

    Audio Android auto update

    The thing is, if you never had it, this is no big deal. I was in the same boat 3 years ago. It's kind of the same as power arm💪 windows vs electric ones. It just work better on a day to day standpoint.
