Well, you gotta drain the oil to install the valve anyway, and that's where it will make a mess on top of the skid. Get valve F103S https://a.co/d/1Q4rH5r Then get the hose kit with the right angle fitting https://a.co/d/72h0JX5 Works...

I remember when I first met ya 25 or so years ago, literally the first impression was “dayum this guy keeps his stuff minty clean” Glad ya haven’t changed 👍🏼😜

I'm amazed it didn't do more damage. I remember this happening to a friend's 4Runner many years ago (3.0 L V6), the shrapnel destroyed the shroud, battery , hoses, and put a bunch of dents in his hood.

I'm at about 1/2 of Kevin's mileage, and I'm pretty fussy about keeping my engine bay clean, but I know his is cleaner than mine down low. I do know my timing chain cover is leaking just a tiny bit, wet but not dripping, so that's a big contributor.

I'm probably too late, but when removing/ installing the radiator, I would cut a piece of cardboard that fits over the fragile fins to protect them while wrestling the thing in and out. Make it 2 pieces with a seam down the middle then hold in...

One compressor. You have something going on inside the HVAC unit under the dash.

When I roadtrip by myself, I took the spare fob, removed the battery and key, and stashed it inside the truck in a Ziplok baggie. Then I took the key and ziptied it inside another baggie, under the truck. Sorry for not being more specific. But...

^^ what he said. If a fat-ass loaded 200 can do it, I'm sure yours can too. Outer Banks last year:

@TeCKis300 is the transfer case dude around here.

My OCD would not allow that.

It should work, just go slow. But you also need something to split the ring that you cut off, so you can get it off of the chain.

Common solution. Take a pipe cutter and a cut off tool, slice about an inch of the pipe part off. Spray some paint on it. Hang spare tire.

I have under hood lights in both my vehicles, so handy. Photo doesn't really show them well, they are very bright. Wires are all above the hood insulator, no cutting required anywhere. I use these lights, very strong 3M VHB tape holds them on...

Didn’t see that coming. Joking.. Glad it’s fixed!

This was on my '87 Xtra cab pickup that I was gradually building up as a crawler in the early 2000's. I eventually did a frame-off on it, this truck lives somewhere in southern AZ now.

I'm no economics expert, but it doesn't make sense to me to throw away $20k in resale to avoid a (overpriced) $2k repair. My experience with coolant entering a cylinder leaves the top of the piston extremely clean, it's essentially being...

This is the best way to fix this. Radical, but you'll never have to worry about bunging up the drain plug again. Remove the axle housing from the truck. Plasma out the drain plug entirely. Mount an empty diff housing to the axle. Plasma out...

Plan on a couple hours, order the intake gaskets and might as well get a new knock sensor harness. Pull the intake, put painters tape over the intake runners, then vacuum out all the mouse crap. Then you'll know for sure if you have the valley...

Can the vent be popped out of the dash? Maybe just ask him?

So I'm told that the replacement battery for the forklift will arrive tomorrow. I've just been cleaning up the forklift. I just did not want to put the 'new' battery (it is refurbished with a 6 month warranty) in the rust and dust. I I decided...

I have the RLC rear bumper with similar cutouts, been installed since 2018 (bought used). Mine came with a cheap set of Ni-light lights installed, i carefully sealed them up with clear sealant (not silicone), but they only lasted about a year...

There's a test you can perform, with a simple light bulb. https://www.redarcelectronics.com/us/resources/brake-controllers-faqs/testing-tow-pro/

Dang! I can use those on my Frontrunner drawers that don't have stops - genius!! Thanks for posting! (Definitely falls into the category of "Why didn't I think of that???")

1/4" hardware cloth A big roll of the stuff was heading to the dumpster at work several years ago. It somehow fell into the back of my truck. If anybody needs any, I'm happy to share.

This is how I fixed my broken stoppers issue, $2 each at Harbor Freight
