    Thanks. Good to know. Thats size I was going to go with.
    I really like those Method wheels too. I almost ordered a different set of Method wheels.

    I have basically the same truck, and I have some 16" SCS wheels sitting in my garage that I need to get tires for.

    I would probably get it fixed as soon as you can... wouldn't want to have to drive somewhere important and have it fully shit the bed then...

    I haven't thought of asking on R3V, but why not ..?

    I've got an '05 Tacoma PreRunner with the 4.0 v-6. I got a good deal on it 2 years ago but it has a lot of miles. Runs great!

    Its always had a gurgling sound coming from the dashboard when leaving a stop sign. My first Blackstone test 3 mos ago showed coolant in the oil, it's had a misfire #4 twice on really cold mornings.

    Yep, I have a head gasket problem.

    Thing is, I barely use any coolant, it runs great and doesn't overheat. Been this way for 3 years as far as I know

    Do I need to sweat this or just keep an eye on it?

    ^ I'm in love with your FJ62. Looks lovely with that stance and in red.

    Finally got the 62 a little dirty in the Ozarks over labor day. The first picture resulted in approximately 96 million chigger bites.

    Tent is free since im borrowing it from parents.

    The Rack is $300 and the brackets I made probably cost me $15.

    'Permanently' attached the tent. Made some brackets out of 1/8in thick steel and steel tube. Beefier then the yakima round bar it sits on....

    Can run wires into cab through rear window, and maybe a snack bin on top of sub box for easy access.

    And I'm almost ready to recover some stuck bois... Unfortunately the winch controller doesn't fit on top of the winch so I need to find a place to remote mount it :down:
