Full time work pays the bills.. ARNG - one weekend a month and 2 weeks in the summer goes to mods!

Welp. I blew the rear left strut out today. TIME FOR A LIFT! :tea: I have my rear shock replacements here and ready.. I'm LOOKING for 7-8 wraps. Give me a price! I will be ordering toytec coilovers to finish out the front (Any other suggestions? I haven't used them before. Both of my...

I had something similar happen a week ago. I tightened my #1 too loose, it worked itself out and burned up the coil pack while bouncing around. it went from running great to a smoking exhaust in 5 minutes. The coil's rubber boot burnt up and left a shitload of grey dust throughout the engine...

Where in PA are you located? If you're looking to 'trade it in' on a FJ, expect to get a minimal price for it. I traded in my lifted 99 on a 12' taco and could only pull about $3900 out of them. Sell it privately and you're more likely to pull 6-8 in our area, assuming there is someone...

I may have a buyer for you Tom. A good friend of mine is in the market for a 3rd gen. I'll send him the link to here, as well as your craigslist ad - tomorrow. If I don't get back to you within a few days, throw me a reminder on fb.

It's all about how patient you are. I paid $4200 for both of my last 3rd gen limiteds in GOOD condition. The most recent only had 110k on it and only needed tires. I also searched for 3 months before finding it. If you aren't in a hurry, keep searching!

Is there any chance I'm on the next order list? :humble:

:iagree: :pop2::banana::banana::pop2:

That makes a lot of sense... Thanks

I just got this HU for Xmas through Crutchfield. The first problem I noticed was that the wiring harness they gave me that attaches to the Kenwood harness was the wrong one. Now, I am a helicopter electrician, and obviously have no problems soldering said harnesses after cutting the stock...

Agreed! :whoo:

After driving around for the past 2 weeks in the snow/ice, I just wanted to do quick review on these Pepboys brand Definity Dakota M/T's (285/75/R16). These tires are made by Cooper, and relabeled by Pepboys. <a href="http://s1215.photobucket.com/user/brignola/media/Around2778.jpg.html"...

You know that's fixable, right? :whipping2

Santa brought me a new to me 97 Limited with 110k on the clock, and a new bird dog. :) <a href="http://s1215.photobucket.com/user/brignola/media/Around2778.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc511/brignola/Around2778.jpg" border="0" alt="Christmas 2013 photo...

Do you have any kind of vibration in the steering wheel while braking? This is usually caused by warped rotors and tends to make the WHOLE vehicle vibrate/pulsate in some way. I've been through your situation twice before, and both issues were easy fixes (although hard to find.) 1) Pull the...
