    Repairing rust on rear differential

    Just pay someone a couple hundred to blast it. Drive her home and Kbs seal it. You’ll be good to go. If you use KBS. (Which I’m a fan of from personal use) mask off everything you don’t want it on, including you! Suit up, and be sure to wear a legit solvent rated respirator as it’s toxic to...

    BFG K02's 265/70/17 REALLY sketchy in the rain

    I had the same issue with tires that were all season and had plenty of tread left still. Switched to factory sized Falken Rubitreks and they crush in all weather. Very soft ride too, they are great tires. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    New strong arm struts still try to catch me with an uppercut. Better than the old days of falling on my head !

    BFG K02's 265/70/17 REALLY sketchy in the rain

    Almost got them myself but opted for the Falken Rubitreks. They have been a stellar tire thus far w/about 15k on them now. I drive like a madman too so I’m a decent test dummy. Snow emergencies and rain included, never an issue. As with any tire, you have to keep up on rotations to get the life...

    WTB: 3rd Gen Aftermarket Rear Bumper

    Hope you find what you’re lookin for! I just went in on the cheap chrome replacement for my center piece and the side chrome found some Clean OEM pieces at the junk yard. I KBS coated the insides of them as most rust starts inside and I ceramic wax the outside along with the rest of the...

    What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

    Also recently finished the TBU. Brembo rotors, Akebono pro act pads, and Powerstop calipers. Very impressed thus far. New copper lines and S/S fittings on both sides of the fancy red Adventure Tacoma S/S braided lines. New end links with poly bushings, CVJ axles and OEM LBJ’s. Riding great for...

    Local shop sandblasted rear section of my 96 4Runner LTD followed by my brush on KBS coating and KBS+ Herculiner top coat for the receiver. Very pleased with this finished product and plan to do the mid and front sections of vehicle this upcoming year. KBS “cavity coater” spray in the holes...

    Any running the Gibson Catback Exhaust?

    I’ve had mine on for years, since September 2019. In the salt belt. I mounted with clamps and then a few days later paid a local shop $50 bucks to weld it up. Go to places that are not corporations and get quality work and support local business! Just do it if you know anything about this kind...

    How much did you pay for your 3rd gen?

    $4,000 w/158k miles Ohio but with that said minimal rust as far as the frame goes. After reading other replies I feel lucky that I got such a good deal. Two previous owners that both worked for a Toyota dealership and I found the on the book records all the way back to 59k miles. I replaced...
