    Aluminum Shell Camper or RTT On Home Built Trailer

    So I built the trailer out of a Tacoma bed… Originally I put a rooftop tent on a rack, and then bought the aluminum shell and put a platform inside for a bed. I like the aluminum shell because it seems to be more airtight, but of course it is more bulky and has more air drag when I tow it...

    I have an 04, 215k miles which I am going to trade in since I am not using it as much as planned, in the last 5k miles, I’ve done the TC/WP, oem steering rack & tires.

    Engine overfilled with oil, could this cause blue smoke at cold start if truck sits for a few days?

    My 04 has been seldom used in the past year, it sat for a while since the steering rack needed to be replaced. I replaced the rack, radiator and fixed a few other things about three months ago. Since then I started noticing blue smoke at cold starts after it sits for a few days, it never did...

    Bearing is fused to steering arm

    I’ve been working on the knuckles for my ‘75 40 with with ‘76 axles. The driver’s side steering arm upper bearing is fused to the “stem”, I’ve tried putting it on a vise and whacking it with a wood chisel and 3lb hammer. I can’t get it to come off. Any suggestions? Heat maybe?

    Shock Absorber Angle

    I am starting to put together my FJ40 again and after installing the front shocks I noticed that it is at a slight angle at the bottom, see picture (right side).

    Desmogging a 3FE, Air Pump Bracket Removal

    I am in the process of desmogging a 3FE, I removed the air pump but debating whether to pull off the bracket as well. I know leaving it will not interfere with anything but want to remove it for aesthetics. So are the two bolts holding it down any longer than the other head bolts?
