Also, no... turning doesn't seem to affect the sound.

Thanks kball... The only other problem I've ever had with this vehicle was last winter. It was a squealing noise upon coasting that actually ended up being a dry section of the drive shaft. After liberal amounts of grease hand-applied, the noise was gone. Now, a year later, I do hear that same...

Hi Guys, So... last time I had any issues with my 99 Ltd, I came here and received a lot of really good advice. Now, about a year later, I am having some issues again and I decided to come back here before anywhere else. I am experiencing a fairly severe 'chatter' noise from the undercarriage...

Ha! Nice...

Wednesday morning, the night after the blizzard, I went outside to find my 4R in a few feet of snow. I put it in 4L and backed right out, not even locking the rear diff, and proceeded to pull out four stuck cars, the last being the blue Corolla parked next to me. I had some doubts about that...

:bravo:

Finally color-keyed my grille.

Well, the majority opinion seemed to be color-keying the grille so today I went ahead and did it. I left the emblem-holding part of the grille black and the rest (including the emblem) is factory matching Imperial Jade Mica. I still have some buffing to do, but so far I like it. We'll see how...

Color Keyed Grille Today I finally finished painting the grille factory matching Imperial Jade Mica, with the emblem holder black and an IJM emblem. I still need to buff it out a bit more, but this is basically the finished product. Tomorrow when the sun is out maybe I'll snap a better pic.

Ha! That looks like quite the load. I hope you have taken care of your shocks since then! Skydiver, yeah I'm thinking the same thing. I'm in the process of doing that right now, it just takes a while to really make it look good. Working with spray paint is harder than I thought...

A Full Load A full load on moving day...

Moving Day I helped move my sister and her newly-wed husband from Glenview to their new apartment in Chicago today. The T4R was a champ! Driving with a very full load (couldn't believe how much stuff I got in there) in city traffic was no problem at all. It was in the 80's today and I had the...
