Ok, do yourself and your rebuilt engine a favor and use a better oil and a better filter. Also, change it yourself. The quick lube shops usually use the cheapest filters they can buy in bulk. Same with the bulk oil, it is stored in a crusty old tank that never gets its filters changed, so you're...

So, I have to ask... What kind of oil and filter have you been using and at what mileage intervals? Also what is the mileage of the truck?

That looks like trouble.

The aluminum puck is the diff drop spacer. Just look at the front diff mounts and see if you have a spacer that looks like this, they are all pretty much the same.

Taco seats are back killers! I was interested in these Summit seats as well since they are so cheap. I mentioned them to a friend who said his brother bought them for his Camaro and hated them. Said they were cheap quality and the seams didn't last a year in a weekend car that spent most of it's...

Pass. The 2nd gen 4Runners are a dime a dozen around here and the 3.0's are just no good. For the same money you can get a nice 1st gen 4Runner with straight axle and 22R, or get an average condition 3rd gen that might need some tires or have some cosmetic issues. My brother was talking about...

Funny, but there's some truth to that.

They are out there! I found a set of the twisted 5 spoke Tundra steelies for like $40 the other day. Thinking of grabbing those to replace my stock split 3 spoke steelies that are wrapped in my other set of tires. The split 3 spokes are downright hideous.

Glad to hear it. We can all understand how much of a pain it is to move, even more of a pain while running a business or two!

Yes, I have the Tundra setup on mine. My original wheels fit with the brake upgrade as well. I went with the black Tundra steel wheels because they are simple, strong, and I prefer the look of them over anything else out there. Plus, they match my stock spare, so I can always have 5 tires in...

I'm running 1st gen Tundra 16x7 Steel Wheels on my 1st gen Tacoma with 265/75/16 BFG AT KO's, they are the same backspacing as my stock Tacoma 16x7 steel spoke wheels with 265/75/16 Dunlop Rover HT's. They fit the same, rub the same, and ride the same. I put a wanted ad on the local craigslist...

Prerunner only would make sense for Toyota. They seem to sell like hotcakes since they first appeared. I see loads of Prerunners everyday, and only a handful of real 4x4s. Sorry to offend any of you Prerunner owners, but your trucks are lame fakes just like 6cyl Mustangs and Camaros. Maybe its...

I've seen some concept designs for the proposed redesign and I personally think it looks like a lifted Camry with a bed instead of a trunk. Just butt ugly. I hope they keep it simple and truck-like, but it seems all manufacturers are swaying away from simplicity and going for some goofy half...

Never heard of em. The owner is listed as Ron Young, who also owns Press Specialties Mfg in Apple Valley, CA which shares the same PO Box as "Adventure Power", so you might try contacting them through that business. Good luck! http://www.pressspecialties.com/

I posted a wanted ad on the local craigslist for Tundra 16" steelies and got 2 replies by the next morning, later that day I picked myself up a set of 4 wheels and BFG AT's as a combo deal for way too cheap. I looked around for the FJ 17" steelies as well, but decided to stay with 16" tires. The...

I have several oil refinery control valve actuator housings in various sizes, some up to 30" in diameter. These things hold hundreds of psi and are bolted together with a rubber gasket between the two halves. I have nothing but the top parts, so they seal up and have two threaded ports. They are...

I hate my stock bench seat, Ive been stuffing a hoodie behind my back to give some sort of lumbar support until I do a seat swap.

If you want it to be lightweight, build it in Aluminum. If you can't fabricate/weld aluminum, have someone else do it for you. EMT Conduit is too thin for a bed rack, but it's ok for a roof rack. Plastic pipe is a no go. I've built mine from Aluminum, in a similar design as BoxRocket's. It's...
