Never found the culprit. Still does it to this day with 310,000 plus miles.

Well....before I did the oil change I had my snorkel facing towards the passenger window which created an addicting intake noise. So I was on the throttle extra hard. Again I had play in my pedal for years. So i think the excessive happy left foot finally did it in. Yes the bottle stopper is a...

Problem solved Special Thanks to sleepydad for the video. Turns out that little bushing was the problem. Watch the video for an in depth look at that bushing. To go a long with that my pedal ALWAYS had some play in it. I just thought the throttle cable was the culprit but it was this...

You might have just saved me from doing a full engine swap! ok JK but seriously I think this was the problem. Just looked under at the bushing and its fried! Building a new bushing now. Will report back. If this is the solution then this thread needs to be added to the Maintenance section cause...

Hoping you all can help me. I have a vibration in my gas pedal. I can feel it at certain speeds however I think it has more to do with the RPM. I determined this yesterday because at 65 its smooth, but if I press the pedal down so it kicks the RPMs up then I can feel the vibration. I drove from...

You'll need a 3/8s swivel socket, breaker bar, and a 30mm socket. Make sure to mark the drive shaft to the flange so it goes back together the same way. The hardest part for me was removing the bolts from the drive shaft. I believe the procedure is the same for the rear shaft. There is a write...

Replaced the front output shaft seal on the transfer case. Installed ARB diff breather kit. Took it up to 8000ft to see fall colors

My cap failed a few years ago after a long drive up I 17 in Arizona. Luckily we made it to our destination before it let go. The ride home was all down hill. A few weeks ago I replaced the radiator cause the temps were higher than I wanted when on the highway. All is good now

I forgot about this game! Ready to play again!

It’s basically just two straps that hold the first aid kit. With the extra I wrapped it around the fire extinguisher and down to the seat cover loops. It’s been there for awhile now and hasn’t come loose even on some heavily rutted roads.

Finally after many many designs I found out an old French Press works the best. I’m going to paint it black with the rubber rd texture stuff to keep it for rattling

If that’s the Tundra upgrade I went the same route and love mine!

Added some more stuff. The hydro flask/oversized water bottle holder is actually just an old French Press that had the glass beaker break. Going to paint it black but for now it mocks up great! BEST part is no drilling holes! Just used the one already in place. First aid kit and extinguisher...

We have haha. But money is always the issue. 2.5 times the cost means 2.5 longer to save. With my Trip next month I worry it’ll be 2 months before I can get one. I guess I can just hope it lasts and if not go cheaper.

I already replaced it once about 90k ago and it looks like this one is on its way out. Ordered this one on carsteering.com. Found one on amazon for $200 front Detroit Axle. Any suggestions here?
