    Question on the 5100 billies and ride height

    I have the Tundra coils and 5100's for the Tundra. I had the shop put them together on the second setting from the bottom. With my 7 wrap LC coils in the back, I have a pretty serious front rake. My question is whether or not I will get more front lift if I set the front struts on the lowest...

    Fuel Pump?

    Go to the simplest fix first. Try replacing the Fuel pump relay. They do go bad. Had the same issue on a mustang I had. Spent a boat load of money on a new pump and it ended up being the relay... just a thought. Edit: also check to see if the inertia relay has been tripped. There is one...

    Merry Christmas to the T4R crew and members

    Wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays to all. 2012 was a great year for me, made even better with the purchase of my '98, and the amazing assistance from the many members and crew here at T4R.org. Be save, be merry, and keep the rubber side down. On to 2013 we...

    So Merry Christmas to me...

    Bummer on the accident, Merry Christmas, and awesome license plate and user name. Beantown is my home town. I hope Bergy can stay away from the concussions this year, if they ever have a season. Great player! I would make sure that they inspect the frame alignment carefully. If it is at...

    anyone running the Tundra/Seqouia wheels on their 3rd Gen?

    Here you go. Sanding them down and repainting was not all that difficult. Just took a few days as I did not have a backup set to drive on. Just went slow, took my time to get them very smooth. All Duplicolor: 3 coats of self etching primer, three coats of Gunmetal Grey, and three coats of...

    Failed emissions help please

    Thats some funny Sh*T. I sent a scorching email to Walker on Sunday, they contacted me today to request pictures of the part. They said that they would have their "engineer" look at it. ROTFLMAO "engineer"... we have lots of them designing our traffic light systems and roads around here in...

    Failed emissions help please

    The Bosche O2 sensor was an exact size match for the one that was in there, the original Toyota #89465-35380 Denso. Exact same length from what I could tell. I simply cant imagine that a brand new O2 sensor would not be as good, if not better than one from 1998. The old one, broken as it was...

    Funny story, just for laughs - the things you find

    LOL, I don't use the stuff, never have, but when we were kids we called it Hooch. I think I heard a friend call it Hoochie Koochie, cause it made his girlfriend horney. And yeah, I'm kind of a nerd like that. No worries on using any of it but the cash, and the starbucks card that had about...

    Funny story, just for laughs - the things you find

    When I first picked it up from the PO, I wanted to give it a really good clean. I found a bunch of change beside the drivers seat, a silver earing, various pens, a Carrie Underwood CD, the ashtray was filled with coins, under the back seat I found a deck of poker cards and plastic ninja turtle...

    And it begins- 98' build up - 5280nrg

    One of the things I have not done and know I need to do is to have the transmission flushed. I know that I need to do it soon as when I just pulled it out today to take pictures, I thought I would inspect the "cold level" of the fluid. I have enough fluid, but holy cow it is very brown...

    And it begins- 98' build up - 5280nrg

    Here is the pick of the CAT.. Not much to look at, but you can also see in the pick that I started on the frame, sanding, rust converting and spraying with a flat black. I will work on it thru the winter as there is A LOT of rust; more surface than anything, with a few bad areas like the rear...

    And it begins- 98' build up - 5280nrg

    I've been posting some of the stuff I did in other threads, so I thought I would keep a running history on this tread. Some of the things I did over the last 3 weeks: I had to replace the entire exhaust system from the CAT back. Spent way too much money on a Walker Ultra Fit Cat (complete...

    Funny story, just for laughs - the things you find

    Ok, so I was killing some time this morning reading posts, and one of the posts is about the mid gen changes to the '99. One of them was about double center console compartment?? I got my console for the swap from a rolled '99 or '00 and did not know about it. So I just now ran down to the...

    Northern Nevada, Utah, Colorado people--trip planning advice

    Failed emissions help please

    Hi Greg, LOL, I do appreciate where you are coming from. The why?... it was 7:30PM when I discovered that the o2 sensor was cracked, it was the last night before my registration extension was to expire, O'Reily's had one on hand, and to be honest; I have never had an issue with Bosche. They...
