Yep, TB will be done, along with all of your listed parts, plus radiator, upper/lower radiator hoses, fan pulley bracket, fan clutch, drive belt idler, 4 oil cooler hoses, and throttle body coolant hose. I had hoped to replace all of the rubber hoses under the hood, but with most of them being moulded hoses (only available from Toyota), it was going to be MANY additional hundred dollars.......Ima roll the dice......
 
Ya, I can't find that throttle body hose

Quit dicking up the Overland thread Braswell
Sorry, I thought there were a bunch of 100s getting ready to truck camp. Don't forget to bring the single barrel (SB)
 
bomar..... you ever figure out a route ? Im in Russellville and might tag along if ya have room and I can get Jordon or my buddy Pat to go, that's about all I do in the 60 anymore. north central Ar has some of the best stuff around..
oh and thank God this isn't a "overlanding" trip !!! not sure I could handle that..besides I would have to go out and buy a snorkel and a photographers vest
see ya Dave Lay

looks like Jordon has a wedding or something.... i dunno John, i doubled the value of the truck when i put that 4 plus rear bumper on it.... and the good thing is the ole 2f is still holding together...
 
DAVE!!! You're still alive! I've been wondering where you've been. Hope all is well.

I've been keeping my eye on this trip. Learning the Ozarks has been a TODO of mine. I wish I knew then well enough to help lead/plan the route. I'm not going to commit to tagging along because I know how big a headache it is to have a large group on a trip like this.
 
hey Josh yea ive been around..as far as trail stuff ive just mainly been doing 1-2 day trips in N Central Ark. with a friend or two or just me and my dog... ive been thinking the same thing about the group getting to big I may bow out to avoid this as im a tagger alonger, but would love to go.... anytime ya wanna do some poking around the Ozarks above Russellville , holler at me, ive got all kinds of stuff.. between there and the buffalo.... but not being a gps guy its mainly in my old antiquated head or on maps and most have water crossings of some sort unless ya just stay on forest service stuff ....... I need to get more involved but just kinda quit going to SL the cruiser is the only rig I have anymore and that's just not what I wanna do with it...................... sorry for the hijack, good hearing from ya Josh
