    turn signal flashing fast - ideas?

    There are ways to "fool" the car into thinking you have the right power draw. Do some searching on the internet for a LED load equalizer. Here is one to start you: http://www.customled.com/PRODUCTS/THE_EQUALIZER/the_equalizer.htm

    Nokian Vatiiva tires

    Heard nothing but good things about these tires, especially for winter driving. I was going to get a set for my Tacoma, but they weren't real easy to come across in my part of the state. My GF's dad has them on his Tahoe and they ride extremely well.

    GE Nighthawks

    They aren't as white as the silverstar's because they don't have any coating on them to filter out the light. I have put these in a Sport Trac and the brightness is comparable to the Sylvania Xtra Vision bulbs. Good light output with the same color as a standard bulb (because of no coating).

    Equal?!?

    I agree with 410Fortune. I took the wheel weights off of my tires when I installed the Dynabeads and my tires shook really badly. The amount of weight I removed from the tires was much more than the amount of Dynabeads I put in them. I had them spin balanced with the dynabeads in there and...

    Equal?!?

    You may also want to try dynabeads from www.innovativebalancing.com . I use them and have nothing but praise for them. Similer product to equal, but with little ceramic beads instead of the equal compound. They are a bit more resistant to clumping than the equal is.

    The most aggressive

    I'm going to have to go with the Cooper S/T also. I have them on my 'Yota and they are pretty mean. http://image14.webshots.com/14/7/76/93/163877693dxcTFy_ph.jpg

    Repainting a black brush guard?

    Well, in that respect just about everything is going to fade over a period of time. The brushguard material is just going to protect you from any scratches or rust. I have used the POR 15 stuff, but you can't use it alone. You first apply the POR 15, but then you have to coat it with one of...

    Repainting a black brush guard?

    Take it off and get it coated with some spray on bedliner material. You will never have to worry about it ever again.

    15-35% mileage increase

    I don't know how many gallons a motorcycle takes, but you're only supposed to use about 2-3 oz per 10 gallons, not per 1 gallon. He used way too much if that was the case. Plus it was a motorcycle so who knows what seized his engine. To my knowledge, gasoline doesn't offer any lubrication...

    Wow, I totally missed that. Sorry guys. Oh well, at least you got to see about 4wheelparts. I thought it was weird that someone actually had a good experience with them. HAHA, my apologies.

    Before everyone goes out and purchases from them, you should check out this link. The company received a "D" rating from the better business bureau. That's awful. Do a search on the internet and you will find more people that hate them than those that like them...

    Cooper Discoverer ST

    I run them on my Tacoma. Check out my pictures in my sig. They are great tires. I have been running into a bit of a problem getting them balanced correctly lately. They are a bit noisy now that I have about 10,000 miles on them. Not quite as bad as a mud terrain, but much more than say the...

    Hey, thanks man. Now that I see your picture, I remember seeing you. I'll have to keep an eye out from now on and wave next time.

    Afters of my 2003 Tacoma 3" lift+Wheels&Tires (PICS)

    I hang out on quite a few, but the ones I respond to most are: www.yotatech.com (this one is primarily a 4Runner site, but not fully) www.ttora.com www.customtacos.com You will find tons of info on these sites, much like this one.

    Customized Yellow Fogs

    How did you create them? Did you use some window tint?

    Afters of my 2003 Tacoma 3" lift+Wheels&Tires (PICS)

    Yeah, I have 32's right now, but I am going to go to 33's when these wear out. My tranny downshifts way too much on the highway and around town. Plus with all the extra weight on my vehicle now it has made it dog a little. After doing some calculations, I found that with the stock 4.10...

    Afters of my 2003 Tacoma 3" lift+Wheels&Tires (PICS)

    Oh yeah, I most definitely joined the TTORA. I also hang out a lot on Yotatech and customtacos. The TTORA board is my favorite though. I like the way your ride looks. I'm about to re-gear mine. Got one set in and am waiting on the front set. I wanted back the power I lost from the lift/tires.

    Picked up my early x-mas present

    They still show the old STT's as well as the new STT's on Cooper's website. It seems that the new STT's don't have all of the sizes yet. They shouldn't discontinue them until they include all the sizes in the new style.

    Cooper Tyres

    I have the Cooper S/T tires and LOVE them. They are a great off road tire, although are getting a bit noisy on road. Since they are so aggressive, I figured they would make noise. Check them out here on my pictures site: http://community.webshots.com/album/152702960kYkCXi/0
