Going off the historical norm. Usually the week prior to that Friday online retailers advertise the sales. I guess times are hard right now for businesses to cut back their profits.

I’ll let someone else chime in to verify. Did you connect the return line back securely on the water pump?

Been looking around and can’t find anything. Usually URD does a big sale on the supercharger and 7th injector combo. Sometimes Coastal Off-road does a Black Friday sale too. Anyone know any good deals to be had?

You used make a gasket in conjunction with a metal gasket? If so that’s probably the problem.

It's a really really tough job if you've never done it before. My best mechanic couldn't complete the job in a reasonably fast manner and therefore I did it myself to save a ton of money on labor costs. The cam bolts and the metal sleeves in the bushings were frozen. Ended having to take the...

I can't find the name outbound_nevada on the search function. Do you have any other way of contacting him about his mod panels?

I’m thinking it did because those were the service records that came with it when I bought it. 15,000 miles later my transmission went out. Set me back $4k

TBU 231mm. Did this about 3 months ago and just now getting around to writing about it. Overall the install was pretty straight forward. I couldn't get the brake lines free to install the new ones but I'll deal with that another day. Here's what I ended up getting. 2x OEM Tundra Rotors 2x...

Thank you.

Doing the TBU, I was going to change out the flex lines but the 10mm hard brake line nut stripped. I'm thinking it would be cheaper and easier to cut out the old one and put a new hard brake line in but I cannot find this particular part number. Can anyone assist me? <a...

Yea, I used Timmy's bottlejack effort. It helped some but the metal sleeve that houses the rubber bushing was seized badly. Even a hydraulic press could not get the bushing out. That's when I went with an air chisel. I carved up the LCA pretty good in the process.

I have a little bit of a ticking noise as well. Isn't there some people that mention the master cylinder is often the culprit behind this noise?? Hopefully someone else can chime in.

Have fun replacing those bushings. My trusted mechanic couldn't get them out so I took on the job myself knowing that I couldn't afford to pay him hours on hours of labor trying to troubleshoot the problem. I probably spent close to 25-30hrs or more working on getting the bushings out. It...

I blew up my transmission on a 2000 4runner with only 108,000 miles on it pulling a U-Haul trailer from Huntsville, AL to Kansas City, KS. Set me back almost $4k to replace the transmission.

About to pull the trigger myself.
