      https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/so-i-think-the-michelin-defender-is-the-perfect-all-terrain-tire-for-most-of-us.1319040/ I have a set of these now, for a little over 2 years. Very happy with them.

      This is an urban legend, unfortunately promoted by one or two members on this board, with no real proof. My previous Odyssey AGM lasted almost 9 years. The NL battery monitor on my dash started sending out a lot of "low battery" alarms last fall...

      I totally agree, I'm not buying Toyota speakers again. The fancy overpriced JBL system in these trucks didn't even sound that great from new, but after 14 years of 70's music, my speakers are done. Very tinny and no depth. I swapped some MB...

      Curious, did you call them, to talk to one of their techs? All my speakers are shot. I'm not interested in a full system tear out, just want to update the speakers, like you.

      I would bet that a cordless impact would pop it right off.

      KLF replied to the thread Scissor lifts.
      No argument there. The Quickjack does take longer to setup than a floor jack and stands. If I'm just doing 1 or 2 tires/wheels, then yeah I go that way. But for oil changes and 5-tire rotations, it's perfect. It was the only practical way to do...

      KLF replied to the thread Scissor lifts.
      I have been using a 7000-lb rated Quickjack with my 200 for about 7 years now, no regrets and I'm very happy with it. I made some custom lifting blocks for it out of 1/4" plate and some 3" pipe. I can easily fit under it on a creeper. Works great...

      Late to the party, but I highly suggest you peel those stickers off and give those arms a proper coat of paint. The factory paint is pathetic. I bought a pair of those for my Tacoma, they were well packed, but the welds were already starting to...

      I think you are thinking of the P40 Warhawk, which many got this detail on the nose https://www.aerospaceutah.org/wp-content/uploads/BM_Curtiss-P-40N-Warhawk_16_mod.jpg

      Ummm .. the console lid in my Tacoma is side hinged. It's pretty much impossible for the passenger to access the contents, very awkward. I wish it was hinged in the back, as they are in the 200 and 3rd gen Tacos.

      The NL fridges are already drilled for side hinges (at least mine is). You can reuse the same hinges, or get the hinge kit from Equipt that lets you remove the fridge lid: https://www.equipt1.com/products/removable-fridge-lid-hinge

      KLF replied to the thread Official FRIDGE Thread.
      This is true. I definitely can tell the difference in power usage when I have the freezer running. It's fine if I'm driving the truck every day, but otherwise I have to be careful. If we're stopped at a place for a few days that has a full size...

      KLF replied to the thread Official FRIDGE Thread.
      I have the NL 50 Dual, and I'm very glad to have the ability to have a freezer while also keeping a fridge. Example: We took a road trip to MD a few weeks ago, stopped at a local seafood place down there and loaded the freezer up with amazing...

      Took some scraps leftover from three previous projects and made a rustic door. Keep the critters out.

      KLF replied to the thread Residential outside 2 post lift?.
      It depends on what you're doing. If you're just working on one wheel, then the jack and a stand is faster and fine. When I do an oil change on any of my vehicles, it's up on the Quickjack, so I can also do a 5-tire rotation, check all the...

      It doesn't lift 4', it's only about 18-20". Gets the tires about 4-5" off the floor at the highest. These things are very overbuilt.

      KLF replied to the thread Residential outside 2 post lift?.
      There's a guy down the road from me that has a 2-post lift outside next to his low-ceiling garage. He keeps covers over the lift posts when he's not using it. It must be a huge PITA to have to make 1000 trips back and forth to fetch tools and...

      Doesn't go well. Wife has an iPhone, I have a Google Pixel. For awhile, every time she got in the truck with me, her iPhone would take over and my phone would be ignored. I had to delete it several times, now it seems to have gotten the message...

      KLF replied to the thread Does this have too much rust?.
      Remember that 40 we yanked out that junkyard back in... 1998?? I think that one was too much rust. It pretty much broke in half.

      That kit won't work. The spare tire rod doesn't use a hook like that, it has a pin in the end to insert into the winch. I have a custom handle that I keep in my garage for lowering the spare when I do 5 tire rotations every oil change, I made it...

      This happens all the time in woodworking, as I learned the hard way. You can tap that dowel into that drilled hole, but sometimes the only way to get it back out is to snap it off and drill it out. Can't do that here... There's no cover to...
