    Load Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV) different part numbers

    I was able to figure it out (or at least which is intended for my truck - still can't tell what the actual difference is). For anyone stumbling onto this, this site is an incredible resource: toyota-usa.epc-data.com

    Load Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV) different part numbers

    So my LSPV is rusted to hell, leaking slightly, and has a torn boot, so I want to replace the whole thing. Toyota claims that both part numbers 47910-35220 and 47910-26111 are direct replacements. Just curious if anyone has any idea what the difference is? Aside from 35220 having a blue finish...

    Non-OEM Brake Boosters?

    So the brake booster on my 2nd gen went out today and the stealership wants $1000 for the assembly (lol). Just wondering if anyone can vouch for reliability of any of the third party options? There's this amazon special "PartsFlow" for $70: Amazon Or there's remanufactured "BrakeBest" or...

    Winter Wheeling in SoCal

    So I'm down visiting my folks for thanksgiving, and thought it would be fun to take them out wheeling. Thing is, it just dumped a bunch of snow in the mountains, and I'm struggling to find trails in the lowlands. Looking for something easy to medium in difficulty, and reasonably close to LA...

    General Grabber ATX tire

    Curious what PSI you guys run on these without beadlocks? I had them down at 17 in the dunes, and they performed great, but they seemed much more stiff than my old Duratracs, which made me wonder if they'd go significantly lower. Anybody pushed the limits on these yet?

    General Grabber ATX tire

    The new 35s are mounted up and have been tested so far with a 200 mile highway drive and a day in the dunes. So far they seem great. Significantly better ride and quieter on the highway than my old Duratracs. Never really drove those old tires in any significant sand, so can't really compare...

    Stepped up to 35s (from 33s) yesterday, and went out to the dunes in Pismo today. Tires seem great so far, and the dunes driving was fun, never done that before!

    General Grabber ATX tire

    I'm getting mine mounted up right now, then heading directly down to the dunes tonight. My old tires (Duratracs) never saw sand, so won't be able to make many comparisons there, but should get a good feel for highway driving at least. I'm stepping up to 35s from 33s, still on stock gears (for...

    Coolant Reservoir Empties, but Radiator Always Full

    Whelp, it seems I've answered my own question. Pressure tested the cooling system, and there is most definitely a fairly significant leak. Its in the hose pictured, near the bottom (kind of out of sight in the picture) - looks like this hose leads to the radiator core. I'll update with info on...

    Coolant Reservoir Empties, but Radiator Always Full

    Edit: I seem to have found the source of the problem, see my reply below for details. So my coolant reservoir empties out fairly quickly - if I top it off when I get gas, by the next time I fill up, it will have dropped maybe halfway, and continues to drop until it is completely empty. The...
