    For Sale  100 Series DS exhaust manifold with fasteners and gaskets

    I purchased this from Beno in August of 2015. After f$&king around for a couple of days trying to get the exhaust manifold loose, I gave up. We traded the rig in last summer and I finally opened the box today from Beno. It’s all there. I paid over $400 for the parts. All Toyota OEM stuff...

    has anyone tried these brakes?

    I'll second that....I finally tossed my OEM cross drilled rotors on my M3 after repeated cracking. They are simply for show or light use. During heavy use ( road track or similar conditions) they quickly develop cracks between the drilled holes.

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    Cleared the P0401 code with a new VSV and Modulator. Replaced the associated vacuum hoses as well. Also cleared the ABS light after finding a broken wire at the LR connector. Gotta love a black-board dash!

    help me decide on a roof rack

    I have a rack I built from two aluminum ramps purchased from PepBoys and fastened together with bolts and rivets. It is supported by four stout gutter brackets and unistrut cross bars. It met my criteria of being inexpensive, strong and durable. There are several threads on Mud with build...

    Do I need to sell my cruiser??

    I'm in the same dilemma. I've decided to likely go with a diesel SUV (VW or Porsche) in a couple of years. I might consider doing short hauls with the LX but the brakes are meh and power is lacking. I've seen a lot of racers towing large enclosed trailers with the above diesel SUV's. Good...

    brake line banjo bolt stuck on caliper

    MAPP gas torch works as well. I successfully used the torch and a couple of hammer raps to loosen the rear caliper bleeders this weekend.

    How-to: rear axle rebuild

    Question: I installed locked axles off of a donor vehicle several years ago and have not gotten around to wiring them up. Is this a problem since I cannot manipulate the lockers before pulling the axle? Thanks!

    Bent ARB Bull Bar - Heat and Beat?

    My 17y/o daughter whacked a Hyundai Santa Fe at a stoplight yesterday. The ARB is bent at the lower center slot. No other damage to our truck and most importantly, no injuries. I'm considering heating the bumper with the Oxy-Acetylene torch and bending (read:beating) it back to original form...
