I heard from the dealer today myself. "Ours" (if we decide to get it) has been delayed, as well. On a related matter, I'm starting to hear more rumblings about 3.5TT problems. Any thoughts on that? @Bomar?

GX?

First test I've seen on this...

Storm cleanup day. Had the tops ripped off a few pine trees. Just finished cutting the first one into manageable pieces.

That’s the idea. I thought about pulling the rear springs and setting it on the bump stops and installing the j’s up front and posting a pic just to troll the web-wheelers on mud but it was too much extra work. 😂

Doing a little bit of work on my 80 project I drug home a few months back. Now that it runs and drives and has functioning 4wd it’s time to start the build. I pieced together a lift consisting of Old Man Emu springs, 2850J front 2863 rear and a...

New info (at least new to me). I think the 4Runner has a better looking exterior...

I don’t know why people complain about how hard it is to replace the rack and pinion, all of the bolts are easily accessible. 😂

Denver steaks turned out awesome. I will pack one up for lunch tomorrow.

Broke down a 21 pound Angus Chuck Roll today. Yielded 3 large roasts, 4 chuck eye(delmontico) steaks, a good sized sierra steak, 7 Denver steaks and a bunch of stew meat. Put all cuts in vacuum sealed bags aside from the Denver’s. Went ahead and...

Yeah, I was really stoked that Toyota had decided to step off into the reman game by providing "quality" units. Unfortunately, they must've just outsourced that project to another company, as the axles themselves didn't look like Toyota shafts...

FWIW: After waiting about 3 months for them to arrive, I bought 2 reman units from Toyota for my '06 Land Cruiser, and I had to return BOTH of them in less than 100 miles. One's splines were so worn from prior use that they "clicked" in my new...

Hmmmm. Interesting. FWIW, if you decide to keep your metal T setup, you might want to look into some European hose clamps. They're also worm drive, but they don't have gear holes that go through the clamp band, and they have rolled edges to...

There's no VIN tag on the driver's B pillar? No VIN tag visible through the windshield on the driver's side?

This^^ If you haven't already resolved this issue, it's most likely the cup bushing on which the "rotating ball" of the shifter rests. If it's worn, it'll allow the shifter to go too far into the transmission, and the shifter tip gets hung up...

Call Pete at Pete’s Transmissions. If it’s something he can’t do for you, he’ll send you to the right place.

Yeah, I saw where Volvo totally cut off funding for Polestar. https://www.wsj.com/business/earnings/volvo-car-evaluating-potential-reduction-of-shareholding-in-polestar-85e29826?mod=djemalertNEWS

Good for Toyota...

Now THAT'S what I'm talkin 'bout!
