Seems like every time I do something nice for it, something else breaks. 
Cylinder 4 coil went out, but luckily I had a brand-new spare on hand.
Being 22 years old, I’m guessing these original coils are on their last legs. I’ll be replacing the rest of them.

Basically no adjustment, stuck on cold.
Pulled the actuator and found the problem
Thanks, I need to check mine. I've got hot and cold, but not a lot in between.
I have thought the same thing… waited for two years and did not win so now maybe we can win one for the 60! Lol. But my cruiser does look badass now! Bumpers are next!! Next year…

Adding these to my list.
After putting 1200 miles on my 100 in the last two weeks I decided that I just don’t want to listen to tire noise anymore, not thag the ridge grapplers are super loud, I just want it quiet as I can.
I did the entire floor a while back, today I did the door skin and the door face under the panel. Hoping this gets it 15% better. 80 mil thickness.
Also did the super simple magazine holder repair mod someone posted a while back.
And removed my spare tire and spare tire crossmember in prep for my aux fuel tank install.

How long does it take to do that one door for example? Is it a pain? I'm a master at taking the door panels off (due to fixing lock actuators) so that part is fine.
Like he said ^^ 20 min a door after panel removal. Maybe 20 min total, not long really.
Good Job! I need to do mine when I replace the door lock actuator motors.

@chrismenke I know it’s been a while but do you have any pictures of the diesel heater install?
Following up on this. Well worth the effort. Drove 125 miles in the rain today and it’s considerably quieter than before.
Anyone who has real-time info or resource of safety info in the Lake Tahoe area Northern California or Northern Nevada? Would like to get details if snow chains/cables is required we are headed there tomorrow 12/14.

Definitely not a fun activity putting this on during inclement weather.
Just a heads up for the future, those cables aren’t worth s*** in the mountains. If you can afford it, go with actual chains if you’re going to be doing any driving in real snow.
I drive those passes daily and have seen some pretty unbelievable things. Those broken cables litter the roads after storms, they just don’t hold up well. Never mind they don’t work nearly as well as chains.
I’ve learned over the years that it’s far more important to not slide sideways than anything else. Chains can help prevent this, cables don’t. If you only have one set, put them on the rear.
Just a PSA. I don’t want to see anyone (or their truck) hurt. Like I said, I’ve seen a lot on these roads. Sierra passes are deadly in the snow (ask the Donners)
Replaced the rear lower control arms and then refreshed the sway bar bushings. Eliminated the dry squeak.
Got suggestions for quality chains??

the tundra airbox, I guess that would be 2.5 gen version can be made to fit. I was checking this for the second battery option stock without moving the power steering reservoir. I'd love to have the round filter box but that's just too much money. It does work in a function over form fashion. IT required one hole drilled and rivnut for attachment, and cutting one leg off and re plastic welding that leg for attachment to the stock hole (most foward hole OEM) The tundra box has two mount bolts. Alignment isn't great either. You're cheating a degree every connection. Quick and dirty with used box halves on the cheap.
MAF extension harness/wires needed. Steal the MAF sensor and wire/clip/extension off the same tundra. MOSt 5 wire mafs from toyota re universal. works fine. 2015 maf to replace your early 2000 maf is just a small benefit.
