231s? My wallet may shudder to think how much he has invested in his rig in a year or so. It must be quite sweet.

Yeah, 231s. Mikey is a seriously generous dude. Makes me look like a tightwad. He actually doesn't own it anymore. He gave it to his brother. Mikey bought a Streamline trailer and bought a Yukon Denali to tow it.

Hey Dudes, here's another area you can protect with a skid plate. BudBuilt makes good stuff so it's a product to consider for your rig.

Manual Hub Swap Part 2 - A.D.D. Hub Bearing Replacement

We made a Part 2 for the Manual Hub Swap. In this video, we swap over the Tacoma manual hub parts to the 4runner knuckles on my 98 4runner so I could retain ABS function.

Also in this video, you'll see how to do the presswork on A.D.D. knuckles if you'd just like to replace worn out wheel bearings.

Lotus RCAMS (Rear Control Arm Mount Skid) Installation

Hey Y'all,

If you're into 4wheeling and have upgraded some of your skid plates like the front and middle ones that protect your drivetrain and the one that protects your gas tank, here's another one to consider. It's affordable and very easy to install.

Pretty neat product Tim. I'll likely add this to my list of mods to do in 30 minutes or less; which is mostly what I've been doing lately.

Looks like you don't have any videos on doing the inner and outer tie rods? If correct, maybe something else to add to your video production list...

We show how to remove and replace the outer tie rods in our steering rack replacement video but we have yet to do a video on the inner tie rods. One day we'll do it. If yours need changing, let's do it and make a video.

Well, that would certainly allow me the chance to finally meet you! As far as I can tell, there is no need to change them, but I want to. I want to baseline as much as I can in the first year of ownership...

I reference the desire to this here:

http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3096635-post422.html

I'll reach-out to you over PM soon. I can tell you now that the weekend of Sat and Sun the 22nd and 23rd is wide open. Other weekends can work as well, but I have some family commitments layered-in...

Nope, it didn't. The misfire popped back up after 20 miles of driving. We're going to have to get Greg back over to do some more diagnosing and see if we can find the fix. The misfire can be caused by so many things so it's sort of a nightmare to pin down if the obvious fixes people employ don't work.

Thanks Tim! I was looking for this exact thing yesterday. I was a day early but will watch it now. Since I replaced an injector yesterday it will probably make more sense.
