I also seem to recall someone say something about Steel Wheel specific lugs? Someone else can chime in and correct me, but I thought that was what I read while looking into them.

Not too crazy. Your ‘14 should have the 5.7 V8 vs a 4.7 V8. Bigger and more umph, thusly, more sipping. My ‘14 Tundra is lighter than my ‘00 LC and is in 2WD 90% of the time, but gets roughly 3 less MPG.

I use a Mini-VCI cable from Amazon and a copy of Techstream from the walk through on Mud. You can’t beat what the manufacturer is using. It’s a bit touchy to get it up and running but once it is, it can do anything Toyota can do.

Beautiful

Got a box of bulk maintenance items and started prepping for the Fluid Film. Power washed the 4Runner and Tundra frames, allowing the power washer to surge water through the inside flushing the frames. Holy sh!t was there a cake inside the Tundra frame! I doubt it had ever been cleaned. Flushed...

Kill WiFi and all network connections before launching and then try again. I had the same issue and that solved it.

I get what you mean about the sting of recent maintenance. I did the steering rack replacement on my 100, arguably one of the most challenging DIY jobs on the 100 Series, right at 1 year before I gave in and sold it. I actually replaced the entire steering system; pump, reservoir, lines, and...

I just moved on from my 100 after tackling this problem for years. I chopped frame chunks and had custom chunks made to weld back (I still have a few if anyone needs), chopped out rockers, coated with what I could, replaced this, replaced that, and really did get my money’s worth out of ol’...

Love that 4R in the back too! It’s funny how many Tundra and/or LC owners have a 4R in the driveway too.

To my eye, this is not any 100 Series undercarriage that I have ever seen. What model of vehicle are you talking about?

Unless you’re looking at 3”+ of lift on your rig, an OEM arm or OEM equivalent length arm, will provide you enough articulation and will not be your prohibitor in reaching max articulation.

Bummer! We just got home yesterday.

Random eBay user, but the same for both… even more insane… they’re $22 now 😂 I make no guarantees, as these were even a dice roll for myself. https://www.ebay.com/itm/204389585656?mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5337589904&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1

The first picture is from when I sold the truck, drivers seat had 2 years and the passenger 1 at this point. The second picture is from the day I installed the driver seat. That crease is not due to the cover. It was due to not filling in the foam that was missing/broken down in that location...

That backside makes me jelly
