Mine is blue, brother's is black. Both have toytec 3" lifts and duratracs. spacers on mine as he is running 18's that don't need them. mine was packed to the gills with a ton of stuff plus towing the boat. This was about a month and a half after replacing the head gasket and it did just fine.

just about 5k on the new gasket and all seems well. I can tell she is getting a little tired though, and a few things need to be done, but so far so good. Did the water pump and serpentine belt (had originals still) while they were in there since it was just the cost of parts at that point. It's...

Year - 2005 Production Date 12/04 4x4 or 4x2 - 4x4 Mileage of failure - 176k Cylinder # that leaked - 6

should be able to find them on ebay or another dealer with no problem. I have had dealers tell me they can get everything to make a non trd pro look just like a trd pro if someone wanted to take it that far.

mine fell victim at 176k. 05 sport. same symptoms and same problem in the same place. Add me to the list.

I just went through this on my 05 sport. 176k and the same misfire. Was torn whether or not to sell it..wouldn't be worth much with the issue. I went ahead and fixed it...2500 OTD with new water pump, serp belt and plugs all done at toyota. Runs like a top now and pulls great! I feel like its...

Add me to the failed head gasket club:dammit:

front timing cover leak and the above issue was not solved. I'm skeptical they replaced the injector...only looks like spark plug and coil bolts were touched. My engine bay is dirty so it's easy to see if they were anywhere. Still bucking and misfire on cyl 6. CEL VSC TRAC comes on and then goes...

255/75/17 duratracs for me. They were way cheaper in this size, but I got p rated..didn't want or need an lt heavier stiffer tire.

CEL and vsc kept coming on. Checked gas cap, disconnect battery etc. Very rough idle. Found that cyl 6 has issues and the fuel injector dumps fuel in and fills it up. Need to replace the injector apparently. 176k...hope there aren't any more hiccups.

I had to get new tires about a month and a half ago. I narrowed it down to the cooper at3, atp, and duratrac. I have heard nothing but great reviews about the at3, but I couldn't pass on the deal I got on the duratracs in a passenger load...255/75/17. Very happy with this tire so far. I might be...

used mine today the way it was meant to be used. DAC made the car buck and grind down the hill....not sure what that means but I shut it off quickly and crept down in 4lo just fine.

my 3rd gen did this, as well as my 4th gen. I actually bumped a lady once because I wasn't paying attention to my 3rd gen creeping. I have read it's pretty common

The term if I remember correctly is thermal shock. Happened to me this winter as well.

please do so I can make up my mind :)
