Hey guys, I have the B&M cooler installed but continue to overheat my transmission once the temps climb in the summer and I load the truck for a camping trip. It only happens when doing extended hill climbs but I think I need a second or a larger cooler. Any recommendations? Thanks

Hi all, need the front right (passenger) side flare! As seen in the photo below. Thanks Thanks!

Thanks, the winch has been a lifesaver. That’s a good point about the rub as I’m going up in tire size (to 285). Not sure what others experience has been with tundras on lowest perch and 33”s

Hey guys, i just finished doing the entire front end on my truck.. and decided it would be a great time to add new springs. I put the eibach 3" springs up front with the tundra 5100 adjustable shocks set to the middle perch. I have LC 7.5 wrap coils the back with air bags. My truck has a...

i think the 6 speed with 3.5l would be a half decent combo.. If they were to make a long box manual i don't think i'd have to give it a second thought. I went on a extended road trip in a 17 tacoma, it sure wasn't fast but i didn't notice the unusual shifting so many people spoke about (maybe...

8 years of 3rd gens.. and now i can't help myself but consider the new tacoma. I've done endless reading.. and work in the auto industry so am well informed on the 3.5l/atkinson woes.. however i have always loved the idea of a pickup and can't walk away from toyota. Currently i have a well...

Maybe a term I've never heard.. what's a shock module? Are you just trying to do the strut assembly and it isn't fitting? Have a photo to better describe what's happening?

You'll be fine with just the relocation kit.

Okay so I would need a solenoid that can handle continuous amps and one which has a rating for above the 85 amps our alternator does?

Hey guys, awhile back i installed a TMAX dual battery kit and a second battery (deep cycle). After about 7 months of use the solenoid actually lit on fire it got so hot.. not sure if it was a wiring error or an internal failure? Anyway i am now finally getting all the wiring redone and...

Hey guys, I had my car broken into and had the glass shop at my work replace it. Before it was broken the 'auto' feature worked great, now when I use it the window goes up then once it closes it automatically rolls back down to about half way. If you dont use the auto feature I can get the...

suspension wise i am sticking with the stock slipper leaf springs but might consider adding some shocks. I just had the spring seats welded in place and think i am going to order some 5x4.5 to 6x5.5 adapters. I missed a wicked deal on some old pathfinder (1994) rims with new 30" all terrains so...

Hey guys, i am building a 4'x4' offroad utility trailer. I am making it similar to the pike peaks trailer and am wondering what your thoughts are on having larger rims on the trailer. It is not my first choice but i am on a tight budget and have a set of nice 245/75/17 mud tires available for...

thanks a ton guys ill give it a try!!

Hey guys, sorry to post this here but i know there is a lot of knowledge and much quicker answers than anywhere else. I need to install an external speaker (very low watt) to my VHF radio on my boat - which i tow with my 4runner :) The VHF radio only has an input for two speaker wires but all...
