Nice I took the girls out this morning in Oregon and didn’t see a single grouse, did spot a couple bucks for October though.

Quick run up the mtn this morning to get my steps in. And it was 9/1 so of course the gauge had to tag along. Managed to jump about 9 birds but only managed to get one. They were in some super thick pines.

Winter salted roads will be here before anyone knows it. I also blasted the underneath with fluid film. I drove around locally to find some dust….ended up at a new home development construction site. Probably trespassing but I was quick and got...

Finally found a good solution for attaching Mountain Hatch tailgate cover more securely. The vinyl "Christmas Tree" push rivets that come with the cover loosen up over time, especially with fluctuations in temperature. Replacing them is cheap...

Got my 1994 running after replacing almost every coolant hose, radiator, fan, blue clutch, water pump, t stat, air injection delete, coolant flush (3x to remove green coolant) new power steering cooler, new trans cooler (both custom Setrab units)...

Oil change before the weekend trip. #nomess.

It must hold more because last time I changed all my gear oil I sourced 2 gallons for the t case and diffs. I had a buddy change the fluid while he was doing some exhaust work for me on the rig and he had to use more than the 2 gallons to finish...

I'm pretty sure on the newer (HF2AV) cases, the removal of the viscous coupling allows for a higher fluid capacity. -Rob

That's what she said....

Of course it will...... The question is how does installing a part time kit in the transfer case affect the capacity. The service manual does not give specifications for aftermarket changes to the internals of the transfer case. Like when you...

I'm just trying to figure out if I have enough gear oil or I need to get another quart.

Our 100% stock 40th rides and handles great. Still on Michelins. Tire pressure may be the quickest way to make a ride change, and it's free. Factory pressure numbers are designed for the factory tire, and are set to balance...

Does anyone know if a part time converted transfer case needs more or less gear oil than the oem set up? Thanks

Use a grinder to carefully remove just enough material to clear them through the range of steering. I have done this on 2 rigs with years and hundreds of thousands of miles with plenty of hard offloading with zero issues. There will inevitably...

Weld it again!!!!

Drove it to some lava tubes and noticed some play in the shifter. I crawled under it today and noticed the arm on the trans was sloppy. I noticed it had weld on it rather than a nut. Yup, the manual shift shaft is broken and the arms been...

She had a quiet couple of days, starter finally took a dump. Put in a new Denso today and she lives again.

Dreamed I put this beautiful stage 2 they had at the MWE in it. Then slowly drove in the fat pig up the pile of rocks with a friend for a quick overnighter.

Changed front/rear diff fluid, oil, and threw on some niched needed new OEM belts - wash and wax after.

Center register directly from Toyota Ordered the passenger side from SOR

Finally finished the cosmetic refresh on my '97 FZJ80. New front bumper, grill, all fender flare gaskets, drip rail trim, mud flaps, center caps, wipers and arms, and rear bumper end pieces. Removed the running boards and did some paint touch ups...

They have zero customer service. If you have a return, they'll flat out ignore you. But, I've been using them for 13 years. For many major jobs on my own vehicles and vehicles for friends and family. I bet they have saved me $5K in plus on auto...

I've ordered quite a few parts via ebay with great luck so far but I won't touch amazon. I think the key to success with ebay is checking seller reviews carefully. I will look through the negative reviews going back a year and if I see a single...

Instead of looking at the markings, look and feel the quality. In this case that sticker showing what dealer the regional warehouse shipped to is a dead giveaway of legitimacy. Good on you for questioning though, question everything because these...
