    TriMeki 2F/F Stainless Steel Header & Exhaust System

    You will need to post a couple of photo’s after a couple months of “aging” as you now have me curious what they will look like as the cerekote option wasnt cheap! But that said, I’ve put about 500miles on the headers to date and the cerakote still looks great.

    TriMeki 2F/F Stainless Steel Header & Exhaust System

    Cant argue on the quality… top tier on everything! (and looked even better than your set after I had them ceramic coated dark gunmetal grey all the way back to the tailpipe) Again, my only issue was they bumped up against the mini-truck steering box. The darn things are made so stout there is...

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    when those shackles are that vertical, it can definitely lead to a more harsh ride. You might try switching to a different type/style of shackle (or add a couple of sandbags to the back)

    At that price they are pretty much disposable even if they only last 3-4yrs. Let us know how it wears.

    What have you done to your Land Cruiser this week?

    I was thinking the same thing because this type of distributor was used in a lot of GM cars and I dont hear of then failing all that often… so wonder if just buying an oem GM coil module for the DUI would increase the reliability. I also read in a thread when I was deciding whether to go with...

    Installed a DUI Distributor. Had been running pertronix, but now after my 3rd igniter failed and leaving me stranded on the Million Dollar Hwy at SAS this year 🤬🤬🤬, it was time to move in a different direction. I know there are 2 camps on whether to go the DUI or newer version Toyota big cap...

    DUI distributor timing

    it does when you push it that way.. think it has something to do with the advance on a dui. I didnt want to pull the valve cover so I put a compression gauge on #1 cyl to make sure it was on the compression stroke now

    DUI distributor timing

    Ok…. I lined up the tdc mark on the flywheel inspection window, pulled the distributor, rotated the flywheel a full rotation, and restabbed the distributor. The slot in the block that the bottom of the distributor slides into was pointed roughly towards the #4 spark plugs both when I pulled the...

    DUI distributor timing

    In the process of installing a DUI distributor. Could someone with a DUI post a photo of their installed distributor in a 2F so I can get a starting point on where to turn the distributor relative to the #1 plug wire so I can get it started and dial it in with a timing gun. I’m sure I...

    must be contagious. (my can is Korean war vintage from a local army surplus store… it probably has a lot of stories if it could talk) I had recoated/sealed the inside with POR, which frankly had held up surprisingly well. I think the vent broke from all the bouncing on the trails.
