Thanks for the kind words man... It was always a fun place to exchange ideas and get tips on installs.

Hello again! Good day folks! Just a little update on things, as I have been terrible at checking in here. I still have my 3rd Gen. Been working on keeping her going. New BFG All Terrains were bought last year, and I got the AC compressor replaced, as well as the waterpump, timing belt kit...

Thank you man... was never built to be an offroader... but more of a vacation / cruising vehicle. I always loved the looks of a 4x4 vehicle... and especially a big fan of lifted Toyotas. I know I said this already on your thread... but really liking your work with your rig man! Very clean, and...

Nice build man! Very clean and tasteful.... :tea:

It's been a long while since I've uploaded on the site. I suppose I got bored with the idea of modding my 3rd Gen, and continued building my 05 Tacoma instead. I've had some naughty thoughts of selling my old girl... but recently had my interest re-ignited. Seems my wife and kids won't let me...

It's been a few years, easily. I tried to upgrade my account, but when I clicked to submit my payment... it would not go passed the processing phase. I'll have to check out Google photos.... thanks man!

What's up folks! Anyone having issues uploading and using Photobucket??

Did you ever paint your rig red? :)

That's a good possibility... but I'm not seeing any drops of coolant on the ground... :confused: I'll see about going about this... thanks for the recommendation! Honestly, the cement was very easy to break up. No steel in it... and some sections were only a couple of inches thick. The worst...

So, I topped up the coolant several days ago, and it doesn't seem to be going down anymore?? I'm still guessing I have a slow leak somewhere... but not seeing it anywhere. On a side note... the yard is nearly ready for summer... just waiting on a gravel delivery to finish my driveway, after...

Not mine... I asked before... looking for a balljoint separator... they wouldn't lend it to me. I know in most cities you can... I've borrowed tools from Canadian Tire and Part Source in the past... but here... they want your money. lol

I spent another blasted day doing yard work, before black fly season starts.... figured we'd get started with setting up the yard for the wife's gardening. That being said, the parts stores out here, don't lend the tools. I'd have to buy them... or take to a garage to diagnose. (Which may...

Didn't get a chance to look at it today... ended up working over 8hrs on this now firepit setup tonight. Moving cement chunks, shoveling dirt, rince... repeat. lol! Alot more work to get done in this yard.... but gotta take a good look at the truck tomorrow. lol

My truck always had some kind of white smoke at initial startup... but oil and coolant are not mixing... so it seems to me like it's not HG related. Didn't seem to be misfiring... ^^ I think it was just really low on coolant... I didn't see any puddles... so guessing it was a slow leak...

My old girl is not feeling like herself. :sobbing: On it's maiden voyage after being stored all winter, the truck was found to have low fluid and the temp gauge was high. I immediately turned the truck off, and let it cool. I then went across the street to the local parts store (Canadian Tire)...
