    OB Approved Camping with Firearms

    Definitely read the laws before you go. They change frequently and you can get pinched . But, if it's concealed and your responsible it won't be a problem.

    Stock Toyota steel wheel.

    This is more information than review. I have looked for this information about my Tacoma steel wheels. I was only able to get it when I bought a used one for a spare. The OEM wheel weight is 28 pounds and the backspace is 5 1/4 inches. Hope this helps someone.

    Spare tire mounting on a Tacoma.

    I wanted a way to mount an extra tire in my bed. This is what I've come up with. I have 2 - 1/2 by 6 inches carriage bolts. They do not fit in the bed cargo rail until you grind/file flat spots on a top and bottom of the head. They should slide in fairly tight. Put a fender washer, lock...

    Top items people carry

    I always carry an air pump, recovery strap, D shackles, tire deflate tool, and tire repair kit every day I drive it. The off road kit complements and supports this list when I am specifically going off-road.
