Chased the same code for 2 years, finally had a universal magnaflow cat installed. No issues since. Save yourself time and money and replace the cat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Getting ready to do a suspension upgrade on my 02 4runner. 195k. Wheelers offroad offers bilstein 5100 preassembled front struts with eibach coils. I was looking at getting those plus bilstein shocks for the rear and the eibach pro lift performance rear coil spring set (E30-82-006-05-02) all...

How old are you now? 18? Haha....jk. I did some pretty stupid stuff with cars myself too before I started getting interested in learning how to work on them myself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I live in Bend, OR. This guy got lost just west of Sunriver which is only about 15 miles south. We just got hit by a record snow storm. The area he was in probably got about 3-4 feet of snow from Sunday - Tuesday. Not surprising he got stuck. Plus we knew the storm was coming. Pretty stupid to...

Not today but two days ago installed a new radiator. 17 years, 181k miles on the original. Met its end over the weekend. Today I will he headed over to the dealership to purchase and replace the radiator cap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Based off of what happened to me this past weekend, I can attest to this. 17 years, 181 k. Just put a new radiator in, because mine blew. Zero signs of pink milkshake just an old radiator. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I need to replace mine as well. I was wrong to assume that a new radiator would come with a new cap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow, I need to go back to school. That was a heck of a run off sentence... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Had originally planned to do. But due to time constraints, an incoming winter storm and the fact that I am living in an apartment and had to do the repair in the parking lot in below freezing temps, I opted to just do a simple replacement and no flush so I could have peace of mind of no longer...

Picked up new oem radiator at the post office yesterday and installed it after dinner. Still running good overall since the incident last Friday. Headed back to a redo this weekend. Definitely leaning towards buying an ultra gauge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good idea, thanks! I’ve had my eye on one for awhile now, this is a good excuse to finally go for it. Do you have to manually set what temp you want the alarm at? If so, what is recommended? I installed an external tranny cooler in series with the radiator over the summer prior to...

So yesterday I was driving up to the mountains to go skiiing. Roads were hard packed snow and ice, so I had 4wd engaged, was concentrating on the road. All of a sudden I look down and the temp gauge is 3/4 of the way to the top! Oh shit. I pull over and turn off the engine. Get out and inspect...

Thanks for sharing! Cool resource. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you. That is helpful. I had ordered some silicone hose but I will probably return it. I read the post you shared, and had not considered the difference in diameters on each end of the hose. $14 bucks is much more reasonable than the $40 for the first part you posted.

Your right that part is expensive for a hose. Searched for it on camelback Toyota and dallas Toyota parts. Wish there was a picture or diagram to confirm it is the correct part. The description just says hose. You can see my pictures posted above and maybe you can tell me if we are referring to...
