wow... 2 minutes. Must be a record.

For sale are a set of (4) 1.25" All-Pro Offroad wheel spacers. Also included are the required extended lug nuts. The part number of the spacers is: 6800-AP-TS-18-125 They were on my 3rd Gen 4Runner for only a month before I removed them and sold the car. The are in great/like-new condition...

Well unbeknown to all of you, I had ground the bottom flush with the spindle to allow myself to get a good centered start on the drilling... I also ground the top, for what now appears to be no reason at all. This morning i was starting with a broken bolt, with a drill bit and a screw...

Well even bigger problem now... Drilled the center out, tried a bolt extractor, snapped it right off... Now the screw extractor is super hard and I cant drill through it... Today I am going to swing by the depot and look for a couple narrow pointy bits for either my dremel or die grinder and...

does the 10x1.25 tap match the existing bolt size and thread density? Thanks.

I was thinking it may be easier to push it out (screw it out) with a regular forward drill bit as opposed to a reverse threaded screw extractor. The threads are clean if I were to tighten it all the way through the spindle. What do you think?

We have a problem... Thoughts on resolving it? I may have to go borrow a more powerful drill with some nice bits from the shop at work to drill that sucker out... How can I retain the existing threads so I can use the new bolts?? Ideas? Thanks, Ryan

Spent some time today removing the Running Boards (long time overdue), replacing the valve cover gaskets, manifold gaskets, plugs, and wires. I can't believe Ive had this runner for 5 years and never thought about removing the running boards. It almost looks lifted... Well for me anyway...

Thats what the installer said the "resulting" tint will be after installing 15% over the stock rear tinting...

Of course!! There absolutely will be "building" going on. Is it bad that I don't want to skip right past stuff that will ensure my runner runs perfectly after I "build" it?? I don't want a junky smelly engine from the leaky valve cover gaskets, and I definitely don't want a milkshake...

So I ordered my first batch of basic maintenance parts!!! Sorry about the pics.. Home after dark every night.. Will take some soon! This morning before work I ordered: B&M SuperCooler 14.4k BTU model NGK Laser Platinum Plugs NGK Wire Set Valve Cover Gasket Set Plenum Gasket I figured Id...

Of course! I will post them up asap.

Hey all! It has been a very very long time since my last visit to this forum. I purchased my 4Runner in March of 2006 during my freshman year of college. I have since graduated, moved into a house, and cleaned and prep'd the garage for DIY work on the truck!! The 4Runner is a 1997, Limited...

Tagging along!!!
