    summer get together??

    What gathering restrictions? 😁 Might need to become a member first, but I would definitely be interested in a non-wheeling event. The only reason I have yet to join is my lack of interest in “destroying my daily driver” type events.

    I have a 74 roof for sale. No cracks or significant damage. The gutters look fine and the window frames appear solid. I will take cash or trade for something interesting (80 series stuff, tools, log spitter, vintage military stuff, hockey memorabilia, aviation related items, etc). Let me know...

    What are you working on?

    Yes. When I tore down my knuckles a few years back the drivers side spindle showed a little more wear then the passenger side. It’s been fine for years until a few weeks ago. I have a set of new spindles and birfs on the shelf, in case this becomes a chronic issue.

    What are you working on?

    I figured it out: Looks like after a few years my preload backed off on my drivers side spindle. 20min later, back to normal.

    What are you working on?

    It’s most definitely coming from the drivers side front. If it was in the back, it wouldn’t stress me out.

    What are you working on?

    Lower control arm bushing replacement this weekend. Good news: Rides smoother Bad news: Suspension thump still there. I think it’s the sway bar joint. Better news: I now have a 20ton press and press tool set that will collect dust. If you need to press in new bushings let me know, I have all...

    P0401 EGR troubleshooting

    Try this, is works for me every time my 401code goes off. Pull your EGR temp sensor and give it a good cleaning. I use a scotch pad and some brake cleaner to make it shine again. Clean the probe, install, clear the code, I’m usually good for 8 months.

    Spark Plug Stuck in Insert?

    Not sure exactly where you reside but I would see if any of your local cruiser club members could lend one out. I’d send you mine but I’m on the east coast and there might be quicker options 😁

    Spark Plug Stuck in Insert?

    Just use the original plug socket in your Toyota tool bag and be done with it, trust me. There is very little space between the plug and tube, you will spend hours messing around with picks. Just hammer the socket so it bites into the rubber and twist the plug out. I had a plug grommet push...

    Spark Plug Stuck in Insert?

    Once the socket cut into the plug nut part and I was able to budge it loose, I shoved a vacuum hose in the hole to suck up any rubber pieces. Once it’s loose you can typically spin the plug Socket with your fingers. Right before you pull the plug completely hose it out again for good measure.

    Spark Plug Stuck in Insert?

    Here is what I did: Do you have your original spark plug socket? If your answer is yes, you are in luck. Line up the socket and gently tap with a hammer. The socket is a bit sharp and will cut into the rubber. If you hold the socket loosely, it will align itself with the plug. Once it catches...
