    Winter Tire Advice

    To be curious OP, where are you at that you want a dedicated winter tire? Or is it a job related position of responsibility type thing where you often have to get out before the road crews? What tires are on the truck right now? The generic OEM all weather tires I assume? Not trying to...

    Winter Tire Advice

    No experience with Blizzaks. I ran studded Hankook I pike RW11s on my Tacoma in Alaska, so I can vouch for them. Have you looked at the studded Nokian options? Nokian Haks are pretty much world class winter tires. https://www.nokiantires.com/tires/suv-4x4-tyres/studded-tires/

    Please help with Alfaobd

    So I know you've already figured this out, but I had to get back in to AlphaOBD today and figured I'd post these pics for future searches. In the Windows UI, you have to select the active diagnostic tab and then the dropdown. DRLs are under car config change.

    Go Figure!

    Where is it leaking from? Did you change the oil lately and this is some of the leftovers from the filter's mess dripping on parts? My only "leak"(not a leak) aggravation is from the weep holes in my exhaust. Usually a drip or two a days of carbony/oily water onto my garage floor that I have...

    Rear Tailgate “open” notification no longer supported

    I didn't even know this was a thing until this thread. It shows as standard equipment on my build sheet. I would have come in handy a couple weeks ago when I almost lost an axe out the back. I guess I'll go hunting around in that godawful windows version of alphaOBD this week.

    LED Pod Reverse Lights

    Thanks. Seems easy enough and I've done it on other trucks. Appreciate the tip on the lights doing OK in the salt. Speaking of, it's almost time for me to give this thing its inaugural woolwax bath. I think NH DOT and the car dealers are in on a scheme to rust out things as quickly as possible.

    OP are these them? What did you use for mounting? Exhaust clamps and a couple pieces of angled steel...

    Air suspension bad idea if near payload capacity?

    OP, do you already have the camper? If not, have you considered a bumper pull camper? That way you can easily get away with the 1500.

    All Terrain vs Hybrid tires

    IMO, most all terrains will do that. They don't clear as well as dedicated mud tires as eventually turn into racing slicks. BFGs are one of the worst IME. Those Rugged Treks look like a decent design. While not as good on the mud as a dedicated mud tire, it should be better than an AT and...

    Registration Fees

    Before moving here, I had Alaska plates on a Tacoma for about 10 years and it was only about $100 every 2 years.

    Registration Fees

    $710 to renew my 2021. It will go down incrementally each year. To be fair we don't have income or sales tax.

    Cooper ATP2, Cooper AT3, Pirelli Scorpion

    It was hard for me to find a quality in stock 3PMSF in LT275/60/20 around here(mid/northern NH). I do like the look of the ATPs though. LT Toyo AT3s aren't made in that size, D rated BFGs were at the low end of my list as I've had too many problems with them, D rated Falken Wildpeaks were...

    Replacing OEM Tires

    You can fit one size up even on the non off road package. I just swapped the OEM Duelers to Nokian Rotiiva AT Plus in 275/60/20. I prefer the utilitarian look to them over the flashy ones with crap on the sides. Had Wildpeaks on my Tacoma-great tires, not a huge fan of the look when compared...

    venom power

    If you're in a state that sees a lot of winter weather, they may not be the greatest with their lack of siping. Probably be fine in the south or places that don't freeze too often. If you're looking for a BFG lookalike that costs a bit less than BFGs, you may want to look at General Grabber...

    Check your rear diff fluid level

    (y)You beat me-7206 when I did it above. I may be early, but I like knowing what is in there and that it is filled to the proper level.

    Check your rear diff fluid level

    Had the same thought on the limited slip additive. Amsoil makes their own AND their gear oil already contains some. I complied with Amsoil's recommendations though. Well, sort of-I only bought one 4 ounce bottle of Mopar LS additive. It's overkill, but I'm a firm believer of using Amsoil...

    Help with Tire Decision

    Living in BC, I'm sure you're familiar with the Nokian brand. They (especially their Haks) were hugely popular when I lived in AK. While I don't get AK or Canada snow cover here, we're at least five months out of the year covered and will be more once I move an hour north of here. I found a...

    Help with Tire Decision

    Are you looking for P or LT tires? I refuse to put P tires on my trucks as tires are the last thing I ever want an issue with and I typically overdo them-heck I had E rated Wildpeaks on a Tacoma. I also upsized one inch in diameter to 275/60/20. I wanted the Toyo AT3s, but not available in D...

    Check your rear diff fluid level

    So with a total of both differential's factory spec capacity of 8 pints>AKA 4 quarts>AKA 1 gallon, this is what drained. This gallon jug also has about 4 ounces of fresh oil as the Mopar LS juice took up 4 ounces of room in the rear diff. I used extra "tricks" to ensure I got as much of a...
