    DIY - GX460 Valve Covers, Cam Towers, Coolant Valley and Timing Cover

    Great write up bud! This should be added to a FAQ or maintenance thread index section somewhere. So you wanna do some more of these for other owners now that you've done it and figured out the challenges involved? $4k on the barrel head?

    The one ton swap thread

    Ya, 30 km/hr.. Got it in, drove 3/4 of a city block along a playground zone and BANG! The cons of a taller vehicle perhaps, but that thing is bent good now.

    The one ton swap thread

    Does anyone know of a shop that swaps one ton axles, just looking for pricing online so I can put together pricing for insurance. Some references to a mechanic that has pricing online would make things easy. Thanks!

    The one ton swap thread

    Just an update. The other party that hit me has apparently taken 100% of fault. Insurance has put me in a new BMW X3 to drive until settlement amount realized. I've created a spreadsheet for pricing and components to work out price but haven't talked to adjusters yet. Driving an X3 to work...

    The one ton swap thread

    Pretty lucky that I ducked over the passenger as it rolled, some old dude hit me, totally at fault, lots of witnesses. Not impressed by how well the A pillar held up

    All things equal, what motor?

    Meh, already have one of those. Perhaps I need some variety. I guess it does move around well enough on 40’s or 42’s though. Maybe I’m craving a summer commuter that’s more nimble

    Pass-Through Connector / Housing Q for Engineering and Fabrication Folk

    Roxtec makes a thing, they use it on submarines or something, maybe a bit overkill for what your doing

    Atlas - The ARB 2021 Toyota Tacoma

    Great pictures! Your photographer had some fun there! The night sky turned out really well, should look good on your advertisements and such.

    Let's chat about light bars.

    Just a relay in the engine compartment and then small control wiring to a contura switch in the cab. Cables easier to route tucked against the snorkel. I leave a piece of black plexiglass in front of mine to protect it and avoid legal issues. Just use pieces of small bungy cord looped around...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    That looks really good, is it real leather or bonded leather? It would be nice to pull the stitching and do a baseball seam on it but it looks great.

    '97 LX Ground Up Build, Cummins

    Ya, deeper into a project than I wanted to go to actually.. I would drive a little hard and loose teeth on the rear pinion (part time conversion) but maybe with a full time setup and stock axles you'll be fine, I may have had less damage too. Also for winter driving did I choose to go to the...

    Builds Airbagged 80 series on 42 inches. Low cost Russian build thread

    You have a second motor or your engine has been pulled out? Curious as to how you get the adapter cut there? Plasma table, water jet etc?

    Hmm. Well, I guess we learned it’s easier to buy low mileage used than figure out the source anyways

    I think that society in general greatly undervalues the wisdom of tinkerers, custom builders and those who repair things for a living over someone with an engineering degree. I’ve worked around many different minds included engineers who didn’t know how a bubble level worked. Some smart ones as...

    Interesting scenario, curious if a trans flush may have had an effect but its out now. Maybe they'll find a plugged passage etc.
