    Need advice! Coolant boiling in high altitude

    I am actually having this same problem right now. Bought my 99 last October, had no problem with this. Back in June, I flushed and refilled my coolant with the Toyota OEM coolant, and last week, I've been noticing that the coolant is boiling out of the radiator and into the reservoir tank after...

    Most efficient way to raise the rear 1 inch

    Let me mention again that no other members have given an actual valid argument backed with facts that says this is a bad idea. Most people just have strong feelings against it, and don't know what would happen, and THINK it would be a bad idea. I am not talking about a 3" body lift in the back...

    Most efficient way to raise the rear 1 inch

    I thought about this a while back, and ran it by the members here. I didn't get a solid without a doubt argument against it. Maybe you can do a half body lift? Just install the pucks in the rear, and maybe angle it so the pucks stay flush against the body.

    Homemade Recovery Chains

    Well I can only "afford" the Hi-Lift winch. I just don't want to sink all that money into new coilovers/front bumper. Maybe somewhere down the line, I'll make my own bumper and then get a winch. But until then, its the old fashion way.

    Homemade Recovery Chains

    I was thinking chains because instead of going for a winch (and having to replace my front coils and get a bumper), I got the Hi Lift X-treme Lift and the Hi Lift winching kit. I'll have 30' of recovery straps too, but just thought the winching process would work better with chains.

    Homemade Recovery Chains

    What are your thoughts on making your own recovery chains instead of buying whatever is on the market? I feel like if you can find pretty strong chains for cheap, hook up d-rings on both ends and bam, DIY recovery chains. I am of the belief that if I can make it myself, then why not? 1) It...

    GOBI Roof Rack *Group Buy* Spring 2015

    You use this as the fairing? I am a tad bit confused. I need a wind fairing, but don't want to dish out $80+ for one, and am lazy to get a piece of plexiglass cut at home depot

    Dudes. I drove 18 hrs yesterday to get o Denver. Now my truck is DOG slow

    I live in Colorado Springs, and every time I want to go up to the mountains to snowboard, I just stay in the right lane, keep it in 3rd, rev it up to 4000 rpm, and hope my rig can maintain the minimum speed of 55mph. '99 5speed manual with 285/75/16s and the deckplate mod (so theoretically I am...

    99 talls?

    Well I swapped because I wanted something other than OEM lift and more clearance and more travel and better off-roading performance.

    Preventive Maintenance when looking at used 3rd gens

    So along the lines of replacing the LBJs, should I also replace the tie rods and whatnot? I have a lift and wheel as much as I can. I don't think anything was replaced before I bought the car @ 217k miles. I figure since I am down there, I might as well make my time worthwhile.

    Pulls to the right when braking...

    I've been noticing a pull to the right as well. Is this an indication that I should replace the LBJs? 220k and I think it's still the same LBJs
