Set of 5 OEM aluminum wheels off of my 2 owner, 2000, 100 Series TLC. Spare wheel is a little crusty, but has on it mounted an unused Dunlop GrandTrek. On the other 4 are lightly used Michelin LTX M/S tires. Most have good tread. See pics. Tire that was PF has uneven wear on the outside. Also...

While trouble shooting no signal at the trailer lights connector, I was directed to check fuses at the towing hitch relay. It is supposed to live behind the DS tail light, or behind the rear panel. I went to searching and found a few things I’d like to know what they are. First, is this the...

That could be a different rattle/drone/vibration. My catalytic converter heat shield rattles audibly when accelerating after start up. Tightening with hose clamps kind of helps, but I'm still intermittently working on making that go away. The drone/vibration I'm feeling is not audible, but...

It looks to me like Procedure C in the TSB is to install a the same damper that is currently on the PS, on the DS. Right?

I got on for you, Bro. I’ll send a pic tomorrow. What’s it worth? You tell me.

No idea of the offset, but they fit fine with 285/70s. .25” minimum spacer required on the front only, but flat RW caps won’t fit. Domed TRD caps will. I believe 1” spacer is min. required to allow the flat RW caps to fit on the front. UPDATE: just read in another post RW wheels have a 50mm offset.

Helpful too just take the skid plate down to clean, paint and reinstall. New one looks great!

Obligatory running board delete. Hole patching on rear cross members. Coat of rust oleum on the frame. New gas tank and fuel lines and got the RW Wheels mounted. Also, a little vinyl on the faded trim! Trim and wheels is all I did. Left the rest to the professionals.

Stoked for these! The Hive suggested these a solution. Thanks for the quick response!

Dig it, Bud. Thanks. Most juice for the squeeze solution is always what I’m looking for.

Next search… Replacing CV Boots. 🤷‍♂️

No detriment to squeezing 1.5" out of the torsion bars? I assumed that much may cause CV boots to leak of put the wheel too close to the lower bump stop, but this is why I'm asking. Thanks

Baselining my Car Pool Cruiser currently. Frame cleaning, fuel line/gas tank replacement, etc... Will be used for trips to work, car pool and beer runs. Occasional beach driving, light off-roading and towing a 19' boat. I'm inclined to go with stock rear shocks, air bags, to keep from...

Nice job with the scab on the back. I phoned in a fix this afternoon with some stainless wire.
