I think you need some half doors Peps.  How many times did you fall off the ramp?

I'm sure tacoma doors are cheap. :conf:   Just get Troy to get you some.  :phone:

I only fell off once . Some people fell off 2 or 3 times , I think it had alot to do with the ramp not being on flat ground , not visibility . S#!t Teag fell off a couple times and he's got tube doors .

Thanx alot for the props my friends  :beerchug: , and yeah some half doors are in the works . Been slowly looking for a set of doors since I bought the truck . I even have 2 extra 1 TON emblems for them , visibility isn't bad , but I always end up with a bruise on the inside of my arm after wheelin' . You can kinda still see it in this pic . This is after 3 days and I wasn't in the truck very long .

Yeah I get those damn bruises too.   I especially hate the door lock digging into my arm pit.
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

I get more worried about my sweaty dirty arm leaving marks on my pretty paint.  That's just me though.

Must be a short person thing, my problem isn't with the doors it's the roof. I have to scoot my ass forward so as to not hit my head. Damn knees keep turning on the windshield wipers and turn signals though.

Sounds like you need a runner. Just take the front seat out and drive it from the back seat. lol

hey Pep !
when you did your sas did you have to change the 2wd tranny out for a 4wd one ?
I am selling the taco and looking at getting a 92 body style but it is 2wd.just wanted to know if you had to swap trannies since yours use to be 2wd.

WHY SELL SOMETHING U OWN OUTRIGHT! lol I wouldn't :gap: not something that new, like a taco. but yeah :P
oh you could keep your 2WD Tranny, but you would need a toyota divorced Tcase adaptor I believe.
but its cheaper and easier to go to a 4WD.

:thumbs:

Am I correct Pep's? or are the Divorce adaptors for non-toyota trannys?

Thanx brother . I think it's just too much tire for a regular IFS box . Hydro assist or full hydro would definately solve the problem  :yupyup: . I just need to come up with the money to do it  :greengrin:

I was looking for your taco out at truckhaven this last weekend.  I wanted to meet you but couldn't find a Kawi green taco anywhere.  Oh, well.  I did check out a bunch of rock crawlers trying to make it up a hill climp by telephone booth hill.

I got there Thursday night and left Saturday morning.  We stayed at the north end of Ocotillo Wells but rode around Truckhaven all day on Friday.  I didn't have my truck, just my quad this time - still a little more work to make my truck trail worthy.
