    FRAME UNDERBODY RUST

    I’m sure you love the truck, but as somebody who has dealt with rust that was in much better condition than what you’ve shown, I got rid of the vehicle and got a very clean rust free example. The money, time and reality that rust never goes away made my choice easy. Religiously using fluid film...

    Options for aftermarket parking brake shoes?

    Avoid trq. Napa can be a good choice. Oem is best. It’s all about the big pin fitting the new pad properly.

    Drain and Fill Brake Fluid Reservoir, Fruitless or Genius? LC100

    I used the pressure bleeder the last time I did my brakes in order to do it by myself. I’ve also done it by myself previously, using the brake pump by putting a piece of wood on the pedal and moving the seat forward to compress the brake pedal and then I run around real quickly to close the...

    Charcoal Canister Replacement Option

    I think one would ask what the diagnostics of each part of the system show… how does that valve work, how do the other valves work, how’s all the other parts of the system…

    Charcoal Canister Replacement Option

    I recently picked up brand new OEM canister for about $430 from eBay for my 2006. It shipped from Japan and was genuine. I have been following prices and right now it seems there’s a lot of sellers with some price drops. Perhaps the supply is back up.

    LC100, 2007 - headlights cloudy - course of action?

    I’ll have to make sure my 06 Ive been driving is really an 06, lol. Not sure what you mean… is the glass different between an 00 or 06? I’ll peek around and see if I can find the link for the lenses cause it’s been quite a while since I saw it.

    LC100, 2007 - headlights cloudy - course of action?

    I was able to get my headlights very clear with a restore kit,it’s all about proper sanding and even coatings, but you could still see all of the micro cracks that were deeper than I would sand. If you don’t have lots of micro cracking, then they will turn out fantastic. In my case, I found a...

    Who would have thought a touch-less Car Wash would damage a Cruiser ...

    Installed an eBay one a few years ago, holding up fine. The old plastic cracks...regardless of the wash. No fault. Just get the 200 dollar part and call it a day.

    Front Differential Replacement

    My perspective is that part can be had for 1400 plus tax during a super sale and my very qualified mechanic is just over 100 an hour, so I be looking at a cost that half of that proposed. Sure, at msrp, high cost labor and a slow guy that charges book time due to corporate, “it’s a deal at 5k...

    Front Differential Replacement

    Do not ever buy anything from this website that is listed if you want to have any sort of recourse when something goes wrong. That is just a broker website and not a dealer. They cannot help you with any technical questions and can barely help you with a return. Absolutely never ever ever work...
