Just circling back on this. I did test the PCV as recommended by @landtank - It was fine. The past few days have all be low speed days and the problem has not returned. So far on my 3000+ mile trip I have not burned any oil which is what I would...

Not surprising as there made in china. Expect to pay more for a lot of things 😔

The steel beadlocks are 46lbs. These spec at 33lbs...haven't weight them yet. Will do. Plus I hate spacers & 39s on a 7.5" wheel has to much side wall play while on windy roads.

I did a thing...

The black hub that I described in my last post roared hard upon start up and for the next couple minutes then would shut up but when it engaged at 190 it pulled lots of air then disengaged at 185. My engine could idle in the driveway all day and...

I’ve only ever ran black hub fan clutches because I’ve only ever had 93-94 models. I have two of them that both work. Am I a rich man??? I do know that they can be more aggressive than the blue hub clutch with the same viscosity oil because...

Hi mud. Been a while, my life on the homestead keeps me busier than when I was l serving. I acquired a 1994 Mustang skid steer with a bunch of attachments for tree removal, and moving lots of earth. She’s a big bitch and I towed her up from...

Your vehicle model year? I’ve only ever removed a couple 93-94 dashes and have done zero installs. It’s a rather tedious task but nothing tricky about it.

That's half exo-skeleton done aldeady!

Go up to Lake Mckelvey. It’s a nice trail ride up to a beautiful mountain lake at 9,000 ft.

I always hated the oil dipstick use on the 1fz. There are two types of dipsticks. The “rope” style was way preferable to me.

Morning Lads, I am currently 2300 miles into my little summer trip. This is the first major (over 1000 miles) trip since the engine was tore down. This past 2 mornings when I check the fluids, I am unable to get a read on the oil level as the...

Yes, just flip that driveline end for end and bolt it back on. It runs best when there is a 90 degree angle formed between the driveline tube and differential companion flange. 1 degree of deviation is usually not a problem. If this be the...

I'd advise against running without the radiator cooler unless you know how it will operate in ALL potential conditions. You may end up needing a larger cooler if you want to stay bypassed. It's common to do this in the 3rd gen 4Runner world, but...

I have used Ron Davis, CSF, Cheap ebay alum. and Liland. I would go with Liland again.

Got the rest of the brackets in and went ahead with bolting them on, wasn’t too much of a pain. Didn't take any pictures of installing but I taped a nut and washer to a wrench and stuck it into the door while sticking the bolt and bracket on from...

It’s a sickness 🤪

You just can’t get enough can you Richard? I wish the paint on m 96 project was in such good condition.

Brought home the rock crawlers sibling today. This one staying all stock and original. Triple locked Needs love but has good bones and no rust.

Get wrenching already! I don’t have property but I do have a 5 month old baby. Flares are legit and under rated, just takes some fiddling to make big tires fit and not rip them off. 🤘🤘🤘
