Agreed! Love those wheels! The old BFG's not so much! Had a pretty significant accident when one of those failed at freeway speed. (F-250 ford) I also had a sidewall split open for no apparent reason on a newer set of BFG All Terrains on my 2018 Tacoma work truck. The tires had less than 10K miles...buyer beware! I'm a Yokahama guy now...

Wow, what an amazing sleeper Taco & it's four wheel drive! There are so many cool ideas on Mike's truck that I will be using on my overland/daily driver full size camping rig (I might even use some of his ideas on my 48 Ford F1). I also like Mike's thinking outside of the box & thank you for sharing a really innovative truck.

My only problem with the uniball lower ball joint is that it still does not account for the 4 bolts that constantly shear or back out. Someone needs to come up with a solution to those 4 bolts and the 1st gen Tacoma and 3rd gen 4Runner would be unstoppable.
@michaelallen55956 ай бұрын
The only time there is a problem with the 4 bolts is if you let them come loose. Once they come loose they pop off the heads or shear because they aren't registered in the dowels. Drill the bolt heads and safety wire them and they will no longer come loose.
