You can't get these at NAPA, by the way. I just had to order one from my local dealer.

Those powder coated stock wheels look nice. What's a ballpark cost for powder coating, assuming the stock wheels are in decent shape to begin with?

Thanks, everyone. It looks like there are a couple of options out there: (1) custom wheels; and (2) '07 Tundra 5-lug wheels. Hopefully in a few months there will be several aftermarket sources for the '07 Tundra wheels.

I'm an FJ60 owner (and frequent lurker in the 60-series forum), but I've never made my way over here before. Anyway, I have a buddy with a '99 LC and he's having a hard time finding any aftermarket wheels for his truck. The guy at the local shop pulled out his catalog and simply told him...

Yes! I would love for someone to give this a shot and post a video. Volunteers?

In my experience, once they're on to something, they tend to keep going until they get it. That's why their voices are so loud. They've been bred for years to chase things down, then keep barking until you find them and kill whatever it was that they were chasing. They do have a beautiful...

I have a buddy that just had to put down his Red Bone. He had cancer or something. He was a sweet dog, but man was he loud! Big too! This is not a neighborhood dog (unless you hate your neighbors). Make sure you he'll have plenty of room to run, chase vermin, and "OOOOOOP! OOOOOOOP!"

Thanks, guys. It fired right up after it stalled with no problem at all, and my carb fan works like a charm. The engine didn't appear to get any hotter than when I'm doing my daily commute (5 interstate miles), but I do have a little of that temp gauge/fuel gauge flicker that's pretty common...

Took my '87 (stock 2F) on a 400 mile road trip this weekend (200 miles each way), and experienced some wierd stuff going on at idle. Here's the story: I was running late on my way down, so I gassed up and drove straight there without stopping. After 200 miles of interstate driving (speedo...

How necessary is a properly functioning air injection rail? What function does it serve?

Mine growls below 30 or so, but only for a minute. Topping off with Lucas seems to help mine.

I believe the color is called Dark Blue Metallic. I have it on my '87. The lift and tires look great, by the way.

FYI - I have a US spec '87 FJ60 in the Dark Blue Metallic (8B4) color that you show as only available in 1985.

I used DAS without any problems. The satellite tracking stuff is pretty cool.

We love Mastercrafts here in Tennessee, but they're made here, so we're probably a little biased. Very $$ though. Nautiques and Malibus are also very nice, but also $$. For a more reasonably priced ride, I understand that Centurion has come a long way in the last few years. They went to a...
