Hey guys, I tried searching and was unsuccessful. Can anyone recommend a shop in the Houston area for a 94 4 runner swap to a 3.4? My buddy already has a JDM 3.4 sitting in his garage. If not Houston, anywhere in Texas or Louisiana? Thanks.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but this is more like a 13% difference isn’t it? Maybe I’m looking at the wrong models. Either way, real world experience camping at big bend and other hot southern locations has shown me that getting past two days with a 100 ah lifepo4 battery is questionable.
This is why I settled on a solar panel being the only viable option for a full time fridge. Plus 70 degrees isn’t even close to realistic where I am in Texas. We just had pretty much two months straight over 100 degrees.
Yes, that’s lithium iron phosphate. It’s the best option for this kind of application. I personally would not even consider the optima because the trade offs are so great. It’s heavier and also has the much lower useful range as Linuxgod explained. I have an Amazon generic lifepo4 power station...
I have ARP head studs on my 6.0 powerstroke out of absolute necessity. How much of a benefit do these provide to the 3UR? I’m big on preventative things like this if they make sense.
I’ve never been up there, so no opinion to share. My last AHC flush I went to an indie on the East side that was recommended by a Mud member. I was very happy with his work. (He also installed my winch and some off road lighting for me while he had it.). I think I’m pretty much done with dealers...
My 100 ah lifepo4 will run the fridge for 3.5 days in the car in houston summer heat with the windows cracked. That combined with the fact that the cruiser is not a daily driver is why I needed the solar panel. I agree that if it was a daily driver I would not have needed the solar panel and...
I had this same concern, my wife frequently does not drive for 4-5 days at a time. I have not set everything up yet but I bought a whole solar setup for the roof rack with a panel, charge controller etc. I already have a lifepo4 battery to keep it a stand alone system. When it’s not 1,000...
If he doesn’t or if I’m closer, I have the whole roof rail assembly from my 2013 LX available. I was actually just about to throw it in the trash. I’m in the sugar land area. Lemme know.
