I was talking to the driveline shop about getting a possible locker installed. The eaton seems like a great idea because of it's simplicity but the shop says they're really loud. The shop recommended positrac but I thought that may be pretty close to what ATRAC already does. They've done...

I'm glad to see that kit. I know I got to get to this project at some point.

What difference did you notice? was it dust, noise or wear?

I try to use oem fluids whenever possible but is there really a difference between the aftermarket dot 3 and toyota for brake fluid?

Why do brake pads have two different item#s and prices for the same axle? Is the cheaper good? Is the more expensive better? What do you use?

That's the info I'm looking for. I guess I'll get it replaced. Did they use toyota glass or aftermarket?

Have you grease the u joints and shafts? Is there play in the front differential bushing?

Are the tail guards sold? I'm interested. PM me if still available.

Do replacement windshield have better heat rejection? I have the original oem toyota glass and the heat goes straight through. It is perfectly clear and does not have a bronze or green/blue tint. Has anybody replaced theirs and noticed a difference?

I'll give you guys a call today. I'm still undecided between ims or nitros.

I'm starting to think that I may use the Dobinson yellow gas shocks due to the price point. But unfortunately they are currently backordered.

actually I just remembered that the previous owner had receipts for napa shop installed pads. I'm assuming they're standard napa pads.

What are your preferred 100 series brake pads? I'm looking for better performance than the standard 80 series pad. I was surprised to find Brembo's on NAPA for 100 series pads. They are listed as oe equivalent.

Has anybody done the above pairing? Does it work well? I've got OME medium springs already and I'm choosing shocks. I hear OME Nitrochargers are stiff. Dobinson IMS seems to have good reviews. I'm not wanting reservoir shocks because they require maintenance.
