    Buy used 2021 or wait to order 2022

    Easy, I just did this after I heard BSM is in the 2022. Just go to a nice dealership and have them search the 2022 allocation map for the model and color you want at a dealership that hasn’t been reserved by a customer yet. Then have the salesman print the vehicle info with vin. Then call that...

    Melted rear seat, what could cause this?

    2001 4WD, One of the evap lines to the charcoal case got so hot that it disintegrated and then melted the seat above it. A Toyota specialist here in Denver has never seen this in over 30 years and has no idea what caused it. There was no wires involved. Any ideas? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Let's see your custom skids

    Custom skid plates Hi guys, For you that made the custom skid plates, when you did flush bolts, how did you tighten the top nut when you can’t secure the other side of the bolt because it is a flat carriage bolt? Won’t it just spin the carriage bolt when you get to a certain tightness? Thank...

    P0770 still throwing after new solenoids and new torque converter! Help!

    BigIron53. Whoa, holy sh*t really! I put 31s on mine and pretty soon after is when my 02 threw the P0770 code. If it is because of that the whole time then that is crazy! Is there a way to fix it?? Also, let’s say that’s not it and I just say f-it and keep driving it. What’s the worst that...

    P0770 still throwing after new solenoids and new torque converter! Help!

    Thanks gamefreakgc! That’s exactly what I was thinking of doing. Getting a junkyard valve body and putting in my new solenoids. When I put it into my truck, do the springs go in any particular way(I know correct order) but how do they go in? Just toss them in there with assembly line? Doesn’t...

    P0770 still throwing after new solenoids and new torque converter! Help!

    It drives completely fine! Doesn’t slip or overheat at all. I changed the fluid and filter and did a flush after the new solenoids and new torque converter. The damn code just won’t go away. Should I change the whole valve body? Get it cleaned? Change the SLT or shift control solenoids...
