I purchased this from Amazon Fall '13 and ended up trading in my '01 before installing it. It is brand new and never opened, and I also bought the flexible hosing and a few other things from Advance Auto that are needed. Amazon.com: B&M 70268 SuperCooler Automatic Transmission Cooler...

Can somebody post the link for JA's original write-up?

Using only second-hand knowlege I was under the impressing that alternators could not be taken apart to be fixed. I believe it is the bearing that is going bad on my alternator, do you have any info on how you did your repair?

No I hadn't, but after looking at it I'll definitely consider that if I start adding anything that would strain the electrical system.

I believe the bearing in my alternator is going bad and was looking for a replacement. How much should I expect to pay for everything I'll need? I checked ToyotaPartsCheap.com and wasn't sure if it included everything I'll need. I know AircabinMan has a quality Timing Belt kit, are there any...

Has anybody bought/installed this one before? The picture makes the brands of the parts look a little misleading.

So as I'm sure everybody knows, today is Cyber Monday. I'd love to hear about any and all deals out there people know about for anything useful (or not so useful) T4R related (or not so related). I'm personally in the market for Weathertechs, flood lights, roof rack, trailer-hitch bike...

Yeah it turns over for about 10 seconds and will try about two or three different times before giving up. But if I get in and turn it over with the key it fires right up.

I'm looking for 3rd gen Weather Tech or Husky floor liners, preferably black or tan. Located in VA but looking for a good excuse for a road trip if they're too expensive to ship.

I have a Viper Remote Start installed on my 2001 that won't start if the temperature dips below 40 (which is when it is the most useful) but cranks right up when I get in and use my key. Has anybody else dealt with this? Possible problems/solutions?

Great eye. My Dad and I have been restoring it for the past 7 years and it should be road ready this coming spring. I was told the Lower Ball Joints were replaced under a recall less than a year ago. Can anyone confirm that this was a recall/warranty item? An external tranny cooler is...

I bought my 2001 Limited 4 months ago and am (obviously) in love. So in love that I don't want to waste any time fixing a few things that I've noticed. I want to spend some money on a new suspension/tires/roof rack, but also want to make sure I'll be driving this thing for a long time. It's...

I was having the squealing belt problem about a month ago so I tightened the alternator belt and it fixed the initial start up squeal, but since then I notice a slight squeal all the time. Wondering if maybe I tightened it up too much, or need to completely replace the alternator (which I'm...

Where are you at? I'm interested but would like to try and avoid the extra shipping cost. i live in Virginia and would love to take a roadtrip if its feasible.

I am looking to swap out my painted silver front and rear bumpers for a set of chrome ones. I'm in Virginia and willing to drive and make a weeked trip for the swap.
