Wet Okles
Hey... I just installed my Wet Okles this afternoon- Love 'em! took one month to deliver- but like NEW seats. :grinpimp:
I have no idea why the pics are importing sideways!!! :bang: my apologies. just turn your monitor 90 degrees for the full effect...:D

Hey,
I had the exact same decision to make about a month ago. I ended up going with the extended cab- 2003 Tacoma TRD 3.4 V6. I love it. My daughter is 22 months old and in a front facing car seat. It fits perfectly in the center of the rear seats- with both seatbelts criscrossed through it-...
I like 'em... I have a buddy that owns a tire shop near my house- I just shot him an email to see what he thinks.
I was checking out the Cooper Discoverer S/T C. damn nice- but pricey...
This is funny- i have the damn fever again... been spending most of day creating one hell of a...
Hey,
I'll start... I sold the 40 and just picked up an '03 Taco (just last week)- will be the DD as well as some mildish offroading.
TRD 3.4 V6 Rear Locker
No real mods yet... But plan:
Sliders
Bumpers
Winch Setup
Just enough to hang with the big boys off road but not so much to...
Thanks Rick- I'm looking forward to seeing what it will do.
Yes- Factory rear locker- i think it only engages when in 4wd... i'd like to change that- so i'm looking into it.
Came with the factory wheels too- i'd be interested in getting them 'redone' (i'm not really a fan of the american...
Definately interested in any parts... make a list and let me know how much- i'll take 'em.
And 31's are what I had in mind... also- sliders are def up there on the list- something I can screw around with and not eff up too badly... :D
Just south of 12. good price for what I got...
Hey Jason...
Yep- the frame has been treated and warranted for 15 years- looks fine, no issues. I was looking at the coopers too- heard good things about them. It has the 3.4 and loving it.
I plan to have this one for a long long time. so expect to see me at some gatherings for sure... :cheers:
Hey guys,
Welp, since unloading my 40 for a ridiculously low price...;) I have now slimmed the payments down- got rid of the Subaru and got me a 2003 Tacoma. absolutely LOVE it. A pretty much stock limited with 91,000 on her. Bought it from the original owner who kept meticulous records... very...
Well that certainly makes it all worth it. I'm glad for you- someday my little girl will have one too- gotta pay the daycare first though :doh:. enjoy it.:cheers:
Good luck with it Rick- nice meeting you and talking with you... ask me- you got one hell of a deal. ;)
I'm very glad it's going to one of you guys.
Enjoy- and I'll be back... for good next time!
Thanks all for the advice and instruction. :cheers:
Hi All,
I am offering this up one more time to the 'local' folks here. Since my last post- it has decided to stop running. It is an electrical problem- no spsrk at the plugs. I have NO time or $$ to put into it and am in need of the garage space for the winter. Some facts of the latest...
Thanks... got the points- installed the new part... now I think the condenser is bad.
The reason I think it's bad: When I manually separate the points while ignition is "on" there is a blue spark- Am I correct with believing it's bad with that simple test???
:bang: Napa won't have it...
I found it...
Hey guys. Thanks for all of the suggestions and help... was out of town for work and back at it just now- it took me literally 5 minutes this afternoon to find the problem. I never checked the 'guts' of the distributor when i clean the terminals in the cap...:bang:
The breaker...
Nope- not yet. got pulled out of the garage (managed to push it in there- NOT easy with just me and the :princess:)
I'll post up in a bit.
Thanks all for the quick feedback. :cheers:

Hi guys,
I have an Aussie '83 Fj40 with 'original' 2F.
I was pulling out of my driveway this morning and it just died. I'm getting no spark at any plugs... i have no meter to check coil...
i searched previous posts and only found problems with spark usually after the 40 has been sitting for...
