Anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks! It does capture exactly what the issue is, so I thought it was helpful too.

https://youtu.be/lnutvMI3dfQ Please watch video from the 6 second mark and you’ll see what I’m talking about. Just driving along, AC on, and the power surges. Happens with AC off too. I just brought it to a shop to have Marion2Bumpwr or whoever’s “Big 3” kit installed thinking maybe there is a...

I have the BOSS kit with SPC UCAs The UBJ are both bad. New UBJs are like $73 on eBay. The SPC UCAs new are $400 so used like $200. I’m thinking about getting the ebay $350 Uniball UCAs bit was wondering are they any good? Name brand ones are like $699 but the eBay copies are half The price...

How to limit steering angle? How do I limit steering travel? I too want to do this as I just mounted up 315/75R16s (see pic) and have done some trimming and clearanced the inner fenders but want to take some Steering travel out? Are the stops on the a-Arms or was it a mod to The steering rack...

Now to get the other side (passenger front and rear door dent repair / repaint in process.

Electric Fan Conversuon Yes, it's 100000% worth doing and you'll freeup about 30hp. Proof: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXdLgaFXZzs

They look shitty compared to the $400 eBay set of 5 links that have HEIMS on one end on every link! Now those will add flex for sure

It is 100% worth doing. EngineMasters (MTOD and YouTube) JUST proved that mechanical fans ROB as much as 30hp at high RPM! to get 30 free HP for just changing a system is pretty damn good in my book I'm doing mine in June.

Right. Is I am debating a LS swap of fully building my 5vz. I would get forged rods, forged pistons 0.020 over at 9.5:1 compression, CNC ported heads with 1mm larger valves on both intake and exhaust, 500cc injectors, supercharger, and meth injection. All told its about $9,500 vs $13,000 for...

Isn't the oil cooler at the bottom of the radiator? Hence the reason T4Rs can even have the milky cooling fluid problem in the first place? I thin a solution would be to plug off the radiator's built in oiled cooler and mount a separate one like we do for the trans. And yes, absolutely a...

Also, dont forget that Toyota is a BUSINESS. They have to balance between a simple and cheap mechanical solution vs using electric fans, having to install uprated alternators, having to add another circuit etc. It's not as simple as "well if the engineers did it, then it must be 100% logical...

Sorry, but I have to disagree. Engine masters is hosted by David Freiburger and Steve Dulich, two highly respected names in the hot rod world. The perform the tests on a super flo engine dyno and control for all variables. Also, your battery STORES energy...when the fan comes on, the battery...

Unfortunately, if those CVs have any kind of significant mileage on them, they will be the next thing that needs replacement post a 3" lift. If they were run at stock height for a long time, they've likely worn a groove at the stock angle. Lifting is going to take those CVs out of the "groove"...

engine masters PROVES electric fan makes 20HP MORE If you watch the latest epsidoe of engine masters of MTOD...youll see that even CLUTCH fans ROB 30hp... everyone is looking to intakes and headers to pick up like 10hp...just by taking the mechanical fan off you can pick up 30 dyno HP. Its...
