She had a quiet couple of days, starter finally took a dump. Put in a new Denso today and she lives again.

Dreamed I put this beautiful stage 2 they had at the MWE in it. Then slowly drove in the fat pig up the pile of rocks with a friend for a quick overnighter.

Changed front/rear diff fluid, oil, and threw on some niched needed new OEM belts - wash and wax after.

Helped host our club with @jcardona1 @Shoredreamer @Outsane. @orangefj45

Center register directly from Toyota Ordered the passenger side from SOR

Finally finished the cosmetic refresh on my '97 FZJ80. New front bumper, grill, all fender flare gaskets, drip rail trim, mud flaps, center caps, wipers and arms, and rear bumper end pieces. Removed the running boards and did some paint touch ups...

They have zero customer service. If you have a return, they'll flat out ignore you. But, I've been using them for 13 years. For many major jobs on my own vehicles and vehicles for friends and family. I bet they have saved me $5K in plus on auto...

I've ordered quite a few parts via ebay with great luck so far but I won't touch amazon. I think the key to success with ebay is checking seller reviews carefully. I will look through the negative reviews going back a year and if I see a single...

Instead of looking at the markings, look and feel the quality. In this case that sticker showing what dealer the regional warehouse shipped to is a dead giveaway of legitimacy. Good on you for questioning though, question everything because these...

Those 2 air filters are different part numbers. Both look legit to me. Both will fit.

How common are fake parts? I bought an airfilter on ebay from a seller with awesome ratings. The new airfilter seems different than my old one. old filter: New filter and box Both real parts? Both fake? One real one fake? What experiences...

@GGM front and rear differential skids up to the task! And the winch mount too, didn’t get a pic of mine winching out, first time, put the 12k to the test for sure. Whole group had to winch out here, not my 80 on the pull, but gives an idea of...

All done. Had fun with it.

The knuckle does not hold pressure and the diff is vented. If it did, hot days, cold days and elevation would create a pressure differential between the knuckle enclosure and atmosphere. It doesn't. The dust cap and felt wiper are not air tight...

Got my tires rotated and balanced. Ordered gear oil, and ordered new diff plugs from cruiser outfitters.

I recently went through this with my 94 Toyota pickup. I've done collision repair for 20 years and know how the insurance companies operate, they'll want to take the cheapest route to close the claim. I'd bet money that they will want to total...

Not the best start to the day. Daughter was parked up at high school when Florida Man drove into her. No idea what speed the idiot was doing but thankfully my daughter is OK but a little shaken up. Driver side fender and door is also...

Also, who is this crew? Met you in Stewart BC at the gas station. We discussed we are all active on Mud, but forgot your handles. Anyways, nice to meet you all and hope you have a good rest of your trip.

12 days in trip to journey to Alaska with Dad! Currently in Whitehorse YT. Trip is going well and trucks are both running great. Just missed the 331,000 mark at camp.

Any suggeatioms on cheap sub $50 options for making transfer case and differential fill ups easier?

Joined the 35s club! Also, became a victim of targeted advertisement, and bought a Wolfbox dash/back up cam thingymabob

wheeling, camping, and fly fishing for my first time.

Okay, you guys talked me into it. If I remember correctly 2 gallons / 8 quarts should be enough to do the t case with a part time kit and 2 diffs with arb's right? I think last time I used Lucas synthetic 75w-90 in all 3. That should be fine...

First thing i would do is carefully run a tap for the original thread pitch through the threads and see if you can repair them. This happened to me and i either fixed it with the original tap or ended up drilling and tapping it one size up. I...

Trying to decide if I need to change my gear oil in the diffs and t case. Last changed in May of 22 25,000 miles ago. Whats the consensus?
