I picked up a replacement sunroof glass panel at a scrapyard after a tree fell on mine. I understand the correct way to replace it is to take down all the interior trim and the headliner. Has anyone found a shortcut? I have a Front Runner rack on the truck, so I don't really care if it opens- as...
Really helpful- thanks!
Do you have a picture of the garnish? I don't believe my truck ever had it in place. I was with the windshield guys, and they only removed the side/top molding. The rivets were removed and replaced with four screws a long time ago too.
I had my windshield replaced recently and noticed that the truck had the rivets removed at some point and replaced with a couple of screws. I'm thinking I'll pick up a cheap rivet gun and rivets and replace them before I replace the molding on top. Does anyone know what size to pick up and if...
I've got a 100 series with 225k miles. Recently, while cruising around at steady throttle, it occasionally feels like the engine stumbles or surges. I replaced the air filter, cleaned the MAF sensor and checked the battery cables. It could be my imagination, but the problem seems more common...
I didn't wind up going to either place, but the guys at NORA recommended OK4WD and Little Bear Alignment. I am over in Millerton, so OK4WD was just too far for me. I took it over to a place in Sharon CT called Autosport for tires, oil change and general going-over. They don't specialize in...
I've had an intermittent issue where if I drive for 15 minutes or so, about 5% of the time the car doesn't start when I turn the key to start it again. It seemed that taking the key out and putting it back in resolved it, so I didn't think much of it. Now, I'm trying to start the truck and...
I replaced the positive terminal because it was quite loose. The negative is tight, but I can wiggle it and it moves. Would that cause the light to come on?
I’m 700 miles into a road trip, now out on Cape Breton Island. I have a battery light that came on this morning and is still on. I put in a new battery before I left.
The Volt meter on dash looks ok with key on Acc and with car running. Is alternator failing? Is it potentially a critical issue...
I'm in the Hudson Valley and thinking about taking my 100 series (215k miles) on a road trip at the end of the summer. Does anyone know of a shop that is familiar with these trucks to get it in great shape prior? I would do it myself, but it doesn't fit in my garage (and I have a 10 month old)...
I used to work in retail analytics. This is a very simple reason that big-box stores a) have cheaper tires and, b) take a long time to install. Tires are what they call a destination category- it's a low-margin class of product that is designed to get you into the store to buy higher-margin...
I picked up a 2000 100 series from a friend over the Summer. This weekend, the thermostat failed and the truck started running hot. A t-connector disintegrated (from the excess heat and pressure?). I replaced the thermostat with an autoparts store one and am back on the road, but will order an...
This is a 2000 100 Series with 205k miles. The truck is new to me, so I haven't gone through it in much depth yet.
I'm guessing this is a bad sensor, since the car has sat overnight before starting. I think I'll start with replacing the sensor. Is OEM the best bet?
Also- anything else I should...
