Local tire shop you get you sorted out and get that stripped one off easily, for less than a dealership or general garages cost.
Can either get new set from them or contact McGard like boogenman posted.

A bed shorter than this is of no use to me, and even this is almost too short. Ideally I would be able to close the gate here, but I'm 6" short.
Our version of Harbor Freight is lovingly called Princess Auto.
Not quite at the same scale as HB, but still the place to go for random tool/auto crap. The weird part is that they have a pet aisle.

I only visited one store in Windsor but Princess Auto is far superior to Harbor Freight IMO. Both places sell cheap tools, Princess Auto had things like hydraulic pumps/motors/cylinders and a bunch of other stuff you could use to build or maintain your own shit.
It sounds more like a Tractor Supply. Completely off topic but on topic, has anyone ever been to or have a Runnings? There are 2 here. It's 100% awesome! Like Tractor Supply and Gander/Cabellas and ACE in one.

Sometimes by choice, sometimes not.
Looks like an HD rod end setup for FJ60/62 chassis. Adjustable, but not at that end.

If you are comfortable with your sexuality, unlike most Americans, you could simply get a Toyota Hiace van, which is completely enclosed, has way more room, is easier to load and unload and gets massively better gas mileage.
I don't think he could... unless this is some new van I'm not familiar with.
he is in the right part of the country to find one....although all the ones i have seen have been passenger/camper variants....nothing you would stick a moto in...
Sadly not in the US...
I would love a Town Ace truck, was a great shuttle rig. Think classic kei truck, but larger (was going to say fullsize, but US vehicles sizes are dumb).

Only option for a Hiace would be a 25+ year old imported model which would get significantly worse fuel mileage than a modern 'Merican pickemup.
Personally I would go for the fire truck
If I had it my way I would have a diesel Hilux, but that also isn't an option. I also would have bitch of a time loading things like topsoil or bark dust into/out of a van.
probably fucking cloves....

Seems like less cigarettes these days. The smoke I smell on the street is most often weed... which you buy in govt run stores.
Yet still better gas mileage than a truck. And faster. And cheaper.
Wild that they aren’t even available in the US.
People who do that here put stuff like that in huge square tarpaulin bags. You can even offload them with a forklift.
Again, crazy you can’t even buy them in the US. Why on Earth not?
Um, have you even seen modern US trucks? You can tow a trailer with 2 side-by-sides and 3 ATVs up a mountain pass at 100mph.
Shirley, you cant be serious. Acrid shitty tobacco smoke is as quebecquois as poutine and delusions of independence grandeur.
Yeah I meant off the line. Our couriers drive them almost exclusively. You should see those fuckers peel off, but you’re probably right, I expect the ridiculous tinypeen models are probably faster all round. That raptor one whose airbags are too sensitive for the jumps seems pretty quick.

There is some cool invention they call a "trailer" for cases when you need to load soil or bark or anything else that you don't want to have in your van. Advantage is that you also can rent the right trailers or borrow from friends after what your transportation needs are that day.
Those are pretty good questions.
But I also have a trailer for times what I need don't fit in the space I have.There is some cool invention they call a "trailer" for cases when you need to load soil or bark or anything else that you don't want to have in your van.

Maybe things are different where y'all are. When I pick up dirt, it's done with a front loader dumped into the bed, or the trailer. You can't do that with a van. Also need a high top van as the bars of the bike stick above the roof.
A van is the least practical. The most practical is a standard cab long bed, but with 3 dogs, the extra cab works best. I don't need seating for 8.
And I also have a van, but it's for camping, not hauling. That's what my truck is for. But if the Ford Maverick was available with a usable sized bed, that would be an option.
Lots of people and every weekend.
So where is the police handing out tickets?
Show me one mountain pass in the US or Canada that you are allowed to drive 100 mph on.
On a serious note: what percentage of the big truck owners does that? 1%? 5%?
When you talk "van", you mean something like this, right?
And now tell me how you cannot load this trailer with a front loader? I should tell this to all the carpenters around here, they are clearly doing it wrong and need to get US-style trucks. Advantage is also that all their tools in the bed can be easier stolen.
Maybe I'm missing something but I fail to see how that van is any more efficient than my truck.When you talk "van", you mean something like this, right?

I'm talking about loading the van, not a trailer. If than van was a truck, you could load twice as much with the same front loader.
Woooooooooosh
I don't think he meant that people literally are driving overloaded trucks at 100mph over mountain passes.
Or maybe he did.
But can it do 100mph while being overloaded going over a mountain pass, without revving to 20000rpm?
Japanese contractors drive kei trucks and vans. Efficient, get the job done, and ladder racks can be mounted up all the same.
