Been running it for several years without any issue:meh:

Anyone have any issues with the adapter not sealing correctly with the filter? It seems mine weeps a tiny amount on the left side, shown below.

I have not been a lucky as some with this adapter as it did nothing for my start rattle.:( I have enjoyed sliding a baggie over the filter and removing it without a oil mess so the adapter will remain. :meh:

Its not why I did it. Its to get rid of the common starting knock especially on a really expensive rebuild.

Whoops forgot the pics

Changed the filter for the first time; lying on my back and reaching up was able to loosen the filter easily, then stuffed a couple of papertowels in a plastic bag (as 86tuning mentioned above) and unscrewed the filter, lost maybe an ounce of oil...

The filter mount should unscrew from the engine. Many toyota engines use the same thread on both ends of the filter mount bushing, so if the Ford adapter also uses 3/4" fine thread it should screw in if the depth (length) is correct. I'm...

Yeah, the dollar is doing very well against the Japanese Yen right now.

Exercising the factory lockers on a rare patch of dirt in LA... right next to an LAX runway. One of the busiest airports on the planet. @midfat for the W. 😂

Decided the play dress up and ditch the side steps. Not sure how long it will last with two little ones getting up and down, but I like the way it looks.

Hell yeah, no judgements here, welding thin metal sucks. Practice practice practice.

Welded up my down pipe for the turbo. Don’t judge the welds it’s literally my second time welding and first time welding thin exhaust. Only blew through one time and was able to recover. I’m a fan of DIY and this was worth the effort big learning...

Little bit of toy jeep ford Chevy and tube car fun today for my buddies 60th birthday wheelin party.

This was last weekend but a weekend none the less. Finally got round to replacing the cooling system along with a new Koyorad radiator. Pressurized the system make sure everything was good. Well pissed off. I had bought the radiator back in Feb...

That new 105 box for $1150(?) and another $100 in shipping is really tempting. Between $600 for a standard redhead rebuild, $700 in parts for DIY 105 upgrade...

Installed my obligatory tri-color badge.

Starting organizing my part hoard. Impex delivery came today. Got a 105 shaft steering box for $1074. 150kg total of parts shipped for ~$300. Pretty wild that I spent about half compared to even amayama or partsouq. Was in the USA in 2 days but...

Gained 100 overlander points with the addition of a CVT Mt Hood tent and some Rhino Rack crossbars.

Had a noise from the front end, and on checking it out found this..... So new rotors and pads. Then found the tapped hole for the top caliper mounting bolt was stripped. M12 x 1.25 - nothing on the shelf so a new thread insert ordered for...

Put in some Rosen visors and rewrapped the steering wheel with the loncky tan kit. Picked up a set of escape seat covers for the lx450 when equipt1.com had there spring open house. Seat covers fit great. Now just debating on what sliders to...

Fancified my wife’s seat. Cabela’s low back bucket seat cover. Was a pain to get buckled and cinched down tight, but it’s way better than the flaking crusty exposed foam seat. And it’s only $20ish. And now it’s in full on sports cruiser mode...

Bottom of housing and ring gear all plated. Reinforce drain plug with 3/8x2” wall DOM

Installed the new front diff with Yukon 4.88 and arb locker. Slee extended stainless steel lines, new oem calipers and rubber brake lines. Rear diff hopefully this weekend.

New metal seat gears on both sides 👌🏻. Both seats function as they should now.
