Agreed. With that said, do you run one?

Not at all. If I wasn't naturally aspirated I might consider it

Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it. I took a drive up the canyon this morning with the A/C on and noticed after my drive it did not drip at all. However, once the heat was on, it dripped a little. Found that there is some seepage from my Heater Control Valve/ the hose to it. I’ll end up replacing the valve + the hose most likely and see if that solves my issue. Thank you for the help!

Good catch! I didn’t consider those coolant lines for the heater core. Might want to replace the heater core flow control valve while you are there, but lots of people report having problems with aftermarket valves.

I noticed a light coating of what appears to be oil in the intake tube today.
PCV & grommet were done with VCGs 6 months ago. Seems like if it was coming from PCV it would also be around that hole.
There's a tear at the top of the tube where it connects to the TB which I think is pretty common. Haven't been willing to spend $110 to replace it.
I don't recall seeing this before. Is it possibly "normal" at 250k+?

Pretty normal, and you can get that piece off of eBay or Amazon for about 20 bucks. Just reuse your band clamps.

Clutch started slipping on my four-wheel drive, so I started researching the process as well as replacement parts.
Aside from ordering all factory, if I went aftermarket is there a preferred brand or performance level recommended for off-road use?
Factory replacement?
Stage 2 upgrade?
I already ordered a Timken throw out bearing since every kit that I've seen the main complaint is that the bearings are cheap crap

Cross posting from my build thread to hopefully get some additional views/answers.

Following up on this with (hopefully) a youtube video showing my coasting idle issue. I apologize for the terrible and shaky video quality. Audio isn't needed unless you enjoy listening to wind noise. Video shows coasting in neutral from 60 mph to a full stop. AC is on during the coast, but the only difference I've noticed between ac on and off during coasting is the rpm difference once stopped. AC on stopped idle rpm is 100-150 higher than ac off stopped idle rpm. No dtc's set or pending and it's done this since the day 1 of my ownership.
Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.

It's in neutral (out of gear) coasting. If you watch the video you will see that the coasting idle is much higher than stopped idle. Stays around 1300 rpm while coasting until I am stopped for a second or two.

I saw that, I will recreate in my truck tonight and report back but when I take it out of gear it returns to ideal RPM - I know this because I coast often and have to bring my RPM up to shift back into gear

I got a couple of '99+ rear seat backs to make this work. I would not try to drill into the seat back.

I found some remnants of oil under the hub cap, when doing my axles this weekend. I'm assuming that's from the front bearings, which means that the bearings are now losing oil?

Yeah I was thinking the same thing unfortunately the seat backs at the junkyard were destroyed hence me only grabbing the plastic parts, we'll see, worst case I'll disassemble the seat at the PNP next time they have a 99+ and just buy the bottom part of the seats.
