i self rescued, deals thread here: https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/2023-black-friday-deals.1325698/page-2

Is there a thread here in the forums laying out or discussing Black Friday deals? I’m thinking it’s time for sliders or a roof rack

This is way cool!

295/70/18!

Added some 1.25 spacers in preparation for 295/70/18’s tomorrrow. Thanks @tbisaacs for all the knowledge you have documented on getting that size to fit a 570. I’m excited to move from stock Tundra tires!

I searched with no obvious hits. I drove to work today and my MID (multi information display) was just blank. I'm used to using it for monitoring remaining fuel miles and tire pressures. Anyone experienced this or have any tips?

I went with the motive. It’s costly but I save more than enough on one oil change done myself on our vehicles

Good evening! What is the best oil filter housing tool? I broke my Amazon pot metal one today. (I always torque to spec) she just gave out! Thanks in advance

I used to have a 2 mi commute with top speed of 40mph so I have never noticed this. My 2008 LX570 133K miles will not shift into overdrive seemingly until the vehicle (engine/trans) gets up to a certain temp (usually 5 minutes or less). This leads me to hitting 75 and turning 2400 RPM for a...
