MotorWest Performance offers a cleaning and flow testing service based in CA. They also sell a Denso replacement set of 6 for about $55-$60/ injector. I had the time to pull the injectors, send them out and the turn around was prompt. Cost me about $150 to refurbish all 6. Wouldn't hesitate...

Just for reference, a 4'x8' sheet of 1/4" A36 steel is going for between $375-$450 (consumer price) depending on the supplier and potential delivery costs. 3/16" thick sheet of the same size/material are going for $300-$400. If you only need a 4'x4' sheet of either, figure about $100-$125 less...

Wow, really enjoying the level of detail in your work. Thanks for contributing so much knowledge and passion to the community!

Following along, I also have most all the bushings on my to-do list to replace. Where did you source the parts from?

Man, what a great thread! I've seen your rig around the city a few times, always admired it. If you ever need a hand turning wrenches etc., or a tig welder I'd be happy to assist.

I'm sitting at 299K on my '96 and tonight I finished putting in a new timing belt and idlers, water pump, thermostat, a few coolant hoses (upper, lower, thermostat to oil cooler, oil cooler to block), radiator, all 3 serpentine belts, all 4 sway bar end links and a fuel filter. Still using it...

That's a clever way to do it. I'll have to make a note of it for if/when it happens to me.

We've got some snow coming to the canyons this weekend fortunately. Hopefully you don't spend too much time caught in the red snake on your way up and/or down. Nice to have new wheels come in! I've been looking at the Yokohama GeoLandar X-AT (45K warranty), the Toyo Open Country AT III (65K...

That's a sweet set up, TW44LR.

oofa, seems to be a theme with most my online orders lately too. Huge thanks for adding me to the list! I should probably mention I intend to lift my 3rd gen 2.5 - 3" from stock (depending on how much the OME 890 rear springs settle). In case this will affect the length of the softer brake...

Howdy. I'm a new member, but I have a '96 4Runner w/ a 3.4 and a 5spd at 297K that I'm breathing life back into and this would be an excellent addition. Please put me down for the entire package (conversion plate kit, parking brake kit, and brake lines). I don't think I can send PM's yet, but...
