That darn auto correct.. Thanks for the catch!

Not really. Its only 2 miles per hour off at 65 mph

yep, 275/70/r17 will fit. I wish I had 17" rims. Check your width first to make sure. go to this website and enter your current tire, then enter the new tire size that you are installing. this will give you the total extra width of the tire. Then make sure your steering knuckle has enough clearance for it. tiresize.com/calculator/

@@EastCoastOffRoadingthey rub and there heavy

I heard they'll rub if you do any sort of off roading. Doesn't seem like you need to trim a lot to fix it though, not as much as 285/70r17 at least

@@squidboi5634 I do know from tons of experience that 265/75/R16 do not rub. They are a 32 inch tire and they work great.

Yeah, but when you tow an RV you're really near the gross weight rating, and if you put a little extra air pressure in the tires it helps eliminate trailer sway a lot.

yes, 32's are fine. It will take away a little bit of power. probably around 5% power loss because of the bigger tires, but you will definitely have the clearance.

I bought a 2019 JL Sport S because its a Wrangler and I wanted one. If Jeep kills the Wrangler for some sissy ass POS Jeep will lose the market.

I've been off-roading for the past 30 years. I've had a 1971 Ford Bronco, a 1983 K10 Blazer, a 2022 Tacoma and I even sadly had a 1998 Chevy Blazer and a Nissan Pathfinder. So, yeah, I think I have experience. P.s. Back when I was 20 years old, I even off-roaded a 1982 dodge 400 convertible. It was funny because when I drove it across the creek, the rear of the car was floating downstream. I blew the starter motor on it that day.

The problem is that everybody else is making the money with IFS, so Jeep is going to have to change. We'll see in a couple of years if I'm right, but with the current data Jeep Wrangler is going to have to do something.

I think they have to or Jeep is in trouble.

it's actually 31.6 inches, but all of the tire sizes measure this way. on almost all 35 inch tires the usually measure about a half inch shorter.

I 100% agree. Thanks.

But it actually is an issue. Toyota themselves are pushing an update. Any first year releases are going to have issues. Remember bronco had the steering rod that always got bent and then they put a bigger steering link on later.

@@EastCoastOffRoading One out of seventy thousand Tacomas isn't a reliability issue. Sure, it's something Toyota is addressing, but it isn't in the realm of reliability.

But if they just detune for 4lo then you still have the torque they stated during regular driving. And I’d rather have a reliable detuned truck than an unreliable truck with tons of torque.

Ford bronco and Ranger are definitely cutting into Tacoma’s profits and for a good reason. They are but very well

Yep. And the new drivetrain is a little stronger than the old drivetrain. Toyota just has too much torque going to these parts. The only reasonable fix is a software update

@@EastCoastOffRoading that one wheel was on a slippery rock, tires don’t grip very good on cold rock, the tire was already spinning, yet not providing enough grip to pull the truck ahead. The driveline should have been able to handle that with no issues. I agree that the software update is unfortunately the “fix” that we can expect from Toyota.

Sadly i agree with you. They do need to make it stronger

your bronco will has a horrible habit of snapping tie rods. Do you know what tie rods do?

@@MisterTwister222 I have the Wildtrak with the Raptor rack and suspension so I'm good.

I am a fan boy for the older tacoma. I just want them to make the new one as good as the old one. The more people complain. The faster theyll fix it.

that's true that they knew the numbers, but the only real fix now is with a software update. I have an older tacoma and I know that lowering the torque isn't going to effect the performance offroad

It's not the engine TQ. It was the way the all the 4wd traction control worked together that caused it. With the rear diff locked, and the other settings, that wheel received excessive TQ. Besides, it happened to one vehicle. One....

@@Dusdaddy it doesn’t matter how much torque that wheel was receiving, the fact that it was spinning without pulling the vehicle ahead means that there really wasn’t much stress on it. Yes, it happened on one vehicle that was being filmed that we know of, could be many more cases that happened off camera. There’s also this one other Tacoma that was being filmed, that blew the clutch during a down shift. The frame by frame shots show that the engine never exceeded 4000 rpm. Toyota’s claim was that he accidentally shifted into 1’st, instead of 3rd, yet the frame by frame photo’s don’t support that, and most manual equipped vehicles come with a safeguard to prevent that from happening.

@@stang-rv4pb You obviously did not listen to the explanation from the Toyota engineer. The traction control was braking that wheel because it was spinning yet receiving tq is why it broke. That's why they tweaked the software. Also reported was the fact that not one other single reported incident like TFLs has occurred. And you can bet if anyone else did it, they would go to the dealer where it would be reported. As for the Pro with the manual, I can easily see it being a blown shift. Can't prove otherwise. Toyota is not stupid, they investigated it like the first one. And they damn well knew that the results would be all over YT.

@@Dusdaddy traction control system will also dial back engine power to help prevent wheel spin, not only apply the brakes, besides, he was only driving with partial throttle. And for the down shift incident, the frame by frame photos didn’t show anything dramatic, most certainly didn’t look like a 1st gear down shift, and if he did in fact hit 1st gear, why doesn’t Toyota provide any safeguards to prevent this from happening? Anyway’s, as you said, there’s no proof, so we’re going to need to take the word of Toyota’s public relations team.

Compared to all the GMs that are getting the roof dented from going through a carwash? I'll take the Toy.

Dented sheet metal vs broken drivetrain. Yeah that’s a smart move.

@@Holden-McGroin One broken drivetrain compared to thousands of dented roofs. I'd take my chances...lol

Thanks. I got it on amazon. I have another video on my TH-cam channel showing the installation and i list the parts in my description on the installation video.

i've had this truck in pretty rocky terrain. it does great. I have skid plates and it's awesome on the rocks

@EastCoastOffRoading I'm sure it is good there, too. That's its function. Most SUVs are built on a truck chassis, have the same type of suspension setup, and, like I said, are just as powerful as trucks.

If your tires are bigger than factory you should have both sway bars and extra air

We use sway bars too but if you got taller tires than what your truck is supposed to have you better put extra air in those tires.

He's referring to BAR as a unit of measuring pressure​ @@EastCoastOffRoading

Or maybe a truck that gets actually used.

my lil sister drives a duramax… should have gotten a real mans truck like a ridgeline

Yep. It’s only 3000lbs. But not everyone has a 3000lb. Trailer

That’s true that a 4runner and Land Cruiser are better offroad vehicles but i needed to haul a camper. That’s why i got the taco

Yeah but for a bigger camper you need the longer wheel base to keep the truck from swaying on the highway

​@EastCoastOffRoading lol that's 100% not true.
