do you take them off and where them then??????????

I would love to see the write up on this, my buddy and I ahve been talking about turbo'n my runner and his taco for years! The way you did it is exactly what he has been trying to sell me on, it just didn't seem to add up in my brain (which also needs a turbo most the time) looks like it works...

is it rusted out underneath? if no, then I would buy it (i almost said wound). all of the things listed by the dealer are normal wear and tear and if you take care of it from here out you may end up with 256k on a 97 like i have. go full synthetic when you get those gaskets changed out.

its your call based on the work done, I bought my 97 w/200k no locker for 4k a couple yrs ago. it was proven to be hwy miles from previous owners work through documented work travel mileage records. I haven't had to do a thing to it other than new brakes since. I did modify it as it was bone...

if your running your defrost it is normal as your ac will kick on when using the heater on the front window defrost to keep the window from fogging.

I found this on CL and I know peeps on here have admired these in the past so figured I would throw this out there for ya'll Toyota TRD Wheels & BFG Tires

WHOA, I have read some of the responses and I am about to slap someone. sounds like you have the mechanical under control, I wish you lived near by I would make sure you and I became friends! I hear toyota mechanics make good friends! I would shop around for LC front coils to lift the rear...

I know it's not on the list but I have personally been looking for a good clean '97 toyota landcruiser, it was the 40th anniversary edition solid axle front end and lockers, it's a beast and has been built into expedition vehicles plenty of times! with the leather interior 3rd row seats and...

no s/c but I tried flowmaster then switched to magnaflow, have a flowmaster cat that adds some wickedness but I recommend magnaflow!

had to pull the tranny and put a new clutch in my '83 in a bank parking lot, next to the ATM drive thru!!!!! it was funny how many people asked if I wanted help. the good ole days!

you don't need to change your lift, don't worry about it until you get the bumper. when you get your new shrockworks, if it sags you can either a. upgrade your front springs and shocks to support the weight or b. ship it to me and i will upgrade my springs to support the weight. are you going...

go to the auto parts store and get some tie rod ends, I think they are like $60 I changed mine in a lowe's parking lot. I did have the steering rack issue and it's worth the $, but if you are talking about front tie rod ends it's literally 4 bolts and if your lifted or skinny you don't even...

That's funny :trophy: everytime I wash my truck it rains and since I need to water my lawn I might go wash my truck @ lunch!!
