Update on the high idle and kick down cable. It was literally just adjustments to get it right, TC to tight KD Cable to loose. The TC is a little warn so that is on replacement list. I have window problems fixed, literally with a track and seal cleaning and lube, and one contact cleaning. So...

I think the TPS is fine this appears to be a mechanical failure to close, need to clean it. I am thinking about the JW Speakers but didn't know if they were a pain to adjust the harness, they don't appear to be plug and play.

Figured out that the idle issue is that the throttle bottle is not returning to fully closed when you left off the pedal. I can manually close it under the hood, I lubed the throttle cable but didn't solve. it gets better if I pull the pedal up. I will see if this is just lack of recent use...

Got her back to Charleston from Knoxville. Very satisfied with the condition, BAT Auction was a fair representation. Starting the need to address list, got dark before I could really crawl all over. 1. Idle at 2k when in park or neutral but correct when put in gear. 2. Knuckles need service...

Thank you exactly the check listed I was thinking could help me complete a inspection. Picking up tomorrow so more picks coming.

Yeah, has some lipstick. Clearly needs suspension kit, these shocks and springs are not going to make for a fun touring ride on rutted roads or deal with mountains roads even if I don't do much heavy 4x4 trails. I see everyone doing EMU Old Man full kits on these with 2" lift. What the post...

I am thinking I would like to do the PanAmerican highway at least from USA border south. Not a retirement, but slowing down for a while. Any body that has done a complete mechanical overhaul on a 3fe have a fair budget estimate.

Anyone that has done a 60 series restore that has created a checklist willing to share would be great. I am attempting to determine what can be done DIY vs. use professionals. Time is more of a problem for me than ability or tool access.

Starting a Thread on my first LC restore. Love my Tacoma, but time to build what I call my run away machine. Time will tell if this was the correct platform. Ultimate goal, Office space level exit from my business one day and hit the road. Only returning to bury those who have supported life...
