Long shot, but does any 200 series guy happen to be getting rid of the factory side steps/running boards? Currently looking for a set.

I have the set from my old 2009 sitting in the shed. No hardware as I sold the truck with the bolts in the frame holes. I’m in the Greensboro area. PM me if I can be of help.Long shot, but does any 200 series guy happen to be getting rid of the factory side steps/running boards? Currently looking for a set.
Why not upgrade to a w59 or R150, aren’t they a lot stronger? I have one of each if you want to make a really long road trip.Wanted - W56, G52, G54
Looking for any that spin and shift that aren’t an arm and a leg, I broke another one. Don’t need the cases just need the transmission
I would love to but in the grand scheme of things the amount of work and money that it would take, I might as well do a TH400 cause the cost would be pretty close for a way stronger unit. 3rz to th400 adapter is 320, th400 to RF1A is 350 from AA. Would just need a custom TC to bolt to the 3rz flex plate.Why not upgrade to a w59 or R150, aren’t they a lot stronger? I have one of each if you want to make a really long road trip.
It’s never simple is it? I guess there is that one simple option of not beating the snot out of your rigI would love to but in the grand scheme of things the amount of work and money that it would take, I might as well do a TH400 cause the cost would be pretty close for a way stronger unit. 3rz to th400 adapter is 320, th400 to RF1A is 350 from AA.

R150 will require a 2TR-FE bell housing, as well as another transfer case adapter to mate it to a RF1A, both of those and a transmission would run me 1300-1600
W59 requires the use of 23 spline transfer cases and mine are 21 spline so I would have to build a new set of cases and get an adapter.
Something I’ve been trying to learn for the last 9 yearsIt’s never simple is it? I guess there is that one simple option of not beating the snot out of your rig![]()

….and at that moment Gurt suddenly realized that the right pedal was variable and not an on/off switch.Something I’ve been trying to learn for the last 9 years![]()
If it keeps breaking, than just fix it right with an upgrade. Yes it’ll cost more money up front, but less headache and more wheelin’!I would love to but in the grand scheme of things the amount of work and money that it would take, I might as well do a TH400 cause the cost would be pretty close for a way stronger unit. 3rz to th400 adapter is 320, th400 to RF1A is 350 from AA.

How old you looking? I got a buddy with a well sorted first gen RAV4 that's about to be for sale lolI'm shopping for a used car. Toyota or Lexus. Not a Cruiser and not a pickup. Think Corolla, Camry, Rav4. Something that gets 20+mpg. Under $10k. Hit me up if you know of something good, please.

Auto, AWD, has a low mileage JDM motor in it. My buddy bought it with a bad engine, bought a really rusty JDM import RAV4 from an importer he used to work for, then took the engine out of the JDM one and put it in the US one. Replaced seals belts hoses, lots of oem parts. Sold it to a buddy who is now moving to France so he doesn't need it anymoreManual trans?

I welded the y-pipe, and put a generic cat in place of the rotted out one.Anyone have the #1 cat with a Y-pipe that isnt cracked for an 80-series collecting dust? Or a full header setup.
