    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    Either custom bracket or find the OEM and rotate MAF. One note, my MAF sensor housing (black rectangular box) makes contact with the under hood lining in this orientation. The band clamp on your air filter side doesn't appear to be doing anything, I suppose you could find a silicone adapter...

    Looks like your MAF was rotated 180 degrees to accomodate the wiring harness. It's a tight fit between the intake elbow, but it does barely fit.

    Yes, there's a metal bracket that joins them together (should be bronze/silver). You can see it in my photo to the lower right of red circle, but i chopped it down in size and painted black.

    Hard to tell with the tape, but i bet your MAF housing cracked apart on the front side of the screen. Same issue I had, only on the opposite side. Take the tape off and snap a picture.

    Wit's End Turbo Owners - Thread #2.....

    Anyone had issues with heat and the MAF housing cracking? While installing a few T clamps on the turbo side silicone hoses yesterday, one too many ugga tuggas and she snapped in half. 15hrs of cure with epoxy steel and it seems gtg, just curious if there's something I can do to prevent future...

    Door opening/weatherstripping replacement

    Went ahead and installed them as is, the gray color is not that noticeable from the outside since I've got silver paint. Inside the cab it's more obvious, I'll try not to look at it...

    Door opening/weatherstripping replacement

    Bump..just bought the fronts thinking they were oak for some reason and received the gray molding. Anyone try painting these dudes? Can't imagine spray paint would hold up well as it's a soft/pliable rubber. Maybe a stain? Front Door Opening Trim Weatherstrip Left Hand Part Number...

    Coolant temp rise - Mystery?

    You have an OEM radiator with an OEM radiator cap? DIY or shop installed? Have you warmed up vehicle, let it cool for ~30 minutes, then tried to open radiator cap?

    Import tax on Partsouq order

    I've found the US dealers are becoming more competitive than PartSouq. Regularly purchase from Decatur Toyota out of AL, especially when they have a sale. Trick is to go all the way to checkout screen and make sure any discounts are applied. Then figure ~25% for PartsSouq tariffs...compare...

    100 Series owners, My friend is looking for a new rig for the family/wife and a 100 series seems to fit the bill. I've got extensive 80 series knowledge after 10 years of ownership, but 100's are somewhat unknown. We've got the tools and knowledge to fix most common issues. He found this...

    Manual Transfer Switch Debacle

    I could, but wouldn't run HVAC. If there's a power outage during summer and I want to stay in the house, generator will be dedicated to HVAC first. The battery backup solutions would 100% run the sub panel, but most of those breakers are just nice to have.
