    Check those front balljoints..........

    Is the recall still open for a dealer repair?

    GottaBe's rear cargo box build

    Looks good man...you need a friend with a table saw! A healthy fear of the Skilsaw is good, one slip with that sucker will ruin your day real quick. I've seen it happen on jobsites more than once...

    External Tran Cooler in CO for non lifted/offroading 3rd gen

    The milkshake can only be avoided if the tranny cooler and radiator ARE NOT run in series. Since you have a brand new radiator to install, you should be fine...

    So did you have the extra tranny cooler installed when you got the PM?

    Transmission cooler: to by-pass the radiator or not to by-pass it

    I'd rather be stranded with a cracked rad than stranded with a cooked tranny, I'm going to do the B&M first and then replace the rad in a year or so...they're both cheap insurance

    Transmission cooler: to by-pass the radiator or not to by-pass it

    I just spent 45 minutes and read this whole thread...aside from my head about exploding, I did realize there are salient points mixed in with the rest of the crap! These are my findings: 1. I want a T-shirt and/or bumper sticker with Dr. Coffee's avatar on it. 2. I might install a B&M cooler...

    fish0281's mod and maintenance thread.

    Nice rig man! I actually saw you around the Denver area once or twice when we lived up there (down in Pueblo now...). That lift setup is exactly what I'm looking to do with mine. Did you install it yourself?

    Show what you're packin'

    For a short weekend up to Denver...stroller, diaper bag, car seat, pack-n-play, dogs...don't have pics, it's not that exciting. If I'd been packing an elk or deer this year, THEN I'd have a pic for you!

    Anyone in SoCal (Near Santa Barbara)

    I used to live there, where are you going wheeling? Aren't many trails around there...

    Engine lag?

    Replaced the spark plugs and wires today with NGK equipment. I think it solved the problem I was having, didn't experience any of the sputtering/lag issue on the 15 mile drive home. Crossing my fingers! All the plugs I took out were Denso, so apparently the plugs had been changed before, or at...

    What has your 3rd Gen prevailed over?

    Wasn't in my 4runner, but trailer hitches are the best collision insurance you can buy. Got rear-ended in my truck by a chick texting in heavy traffic, saw it coming in my mirror and had just enough time to take my foot off the brake-smashed the heck out of her grill and radiator, and stuffed...
