I reserved a 2024 Tacoma TRD Offroad in Bronze Oxide. That is a real popular color with not a lot of supply in the Premium trim I wanted.
It has a build date of May 29th with an estimated delivery of July 5th.
I drove a non Hybrid Offroad and decided that was more than enough power for me. I...
The battery charge is lasting less and less for the Ring Video door bell I think Gen 1. It is hooked up to the door bell wires but not making it last longer. Had it for 3+ years
I am guessing the transformer is a low voltage/low power one and thinking if I went with the recommended 16V 30A...
So I wanted to get a welder and posted up on the local club site after researching for days
I agonized over welders and broke it down to 4 with the following rationale:
I get that the 220V have more power. I see ones that have dual 110 or 220V as able to go to help others out of needed. Being...
I have a main panel and a sub panel in the garage. The sub panel is right above were I want to put in the 220 V outlet. I know how to wire the outlet in, just validating the capability of my system
I can see from the main breaker the sub panel is 95 AMPs, or at 80% rating = 76 AMPs at 220V...

The bench vise worked OK, but made the crimps flat. Then doing the other end when working on the truck impractical
So I bought the hammer crimp. It didnt work for me

I replaced the stock stereo and the same thing

The rear view was obstructed, but Okay until I put the tray on the ladder. Christo told me it would obstruct the view. I asked when he was going to come up with a bracket and he said he would look into that
As Forest Gump says " I am not a patient man" If Christo comes up with a bracket...
I have detected a strange leak in the drivers side of the engine bay under the air compressor. Between the brake fluid and the wheel well. It is leaking down the wheel well. The Oil level is fine. Looks like it is coming out the air compressor/solenoid

I have had the Racor rack for years to hold my Roof Top Tents. Since I have 8 ft Garage doors its easy to drive in, Take the mounting bolts off the rood rack and attach it to the Racor lift and crank it up to the ceiling using a power drill. Notice I had two RACOr. One with the racks that...
I was installing my Tesla android unit and I had everything working except the cameras. I watched a video on line where the authour identified the video cables but had to rewire it to a processing unit. Mine was supposed to be plug and play and it looked like the two video connectors would fit...
I plan on adding this to the FAQ. Still a work in progress
It appears there are 3 sources for Tesla/Android style replacement units all originating from the same factory in China. Not all units have the same capabilities

i currently have an ARB 50qt fridge on ARB Drawers as pictured below. When you pull the fridge out and open it. The tailgate area constrains how much you can open it. Not a big deal really

In another thread it was pointed out I should be using 85 to 140wt in my differentials that have ARB lockers instead of the 90 wt I was using. While researching this I found suggestions not to get Gear Oil for Limited slips as they have additives that are bad for the ARB seals. Not sure if...
