This isn't my ad, but I thought maybe someone here might find this useful. It's not a new ad, but it's still up so I figured I'd share it with this crowd. 1981 Toyota Trekker Rare fiberglass body

Things have been pretty busy for me as of late, so I haven't been on much at all the last few weeks. I've just been clearing the code when it pops up and plan to replace both sensors this spring when more paying work comes in. As for my gas cap, I'm a habitual tighten 'til she clicks kind of...

Thanks for the info guys! I know that both of these sensors are the ones that it rolled off the lot with, so I hold no reservations that they are causing problems. My gas mileage has been falling every tank for a few tanks now, and just hit 14... is this an indicator that it's the front one? Are...

I had this CEL pop up this morning, and took it down to have the codes scanned and it turned out to be P0420. From what I can find with some google-fu, it looks like a few different things can trigger that CEL, from exhaust leaks, fried cat, or fried 02 sensor. I haven't spent a ton of time...

I figure I'll wind up trying out the Engo down the road for it's price point, but we'll see. If nothing else, here's some reading material. Massive Multi-Winch Shootout - Four Wheeler Magazine

I'm with PBR on this one. I haven't had a Sami myself, but I've wheeled with enough peeps who had them to know they're plenty capable of fun off road, but I followed em around with a stock 1984 that I had sawed off a lot of sheet metal to fit some 34" tall tractor tires without a lift. Rubbed...

If I'm doing strictly freeway driving, I'll get about 17.5 mpg holding 70 with cruise control. Around town for my day in and day out driving, I'm averaging about 15.1 mpg. That's been very consistent for the last 10 tanks. Just about set for new plugs, wires, air & fuel filters according to the...

Nice ride and welcome to the group! I wish my first ride had looked so good!

Erik's Toyota Differential info

It was a downer for sure! The truck may not have been the most reliable to me, but I'm not sure any of it's owners were that reliable to it either. It did take me into a ton of great fishing places, never mind that I walked back out of a lot of them, irregardless, I miss that old truck, and when...

I hear ya. Aside from my 1980, none of my Toy's have left me stranded. Can't really blame the 80 much, that thing had a hard life. I picked it up in trade for a C6 transmission that I got for free, and was able to drive it day one. In the last 100,000 miles before I had her, I'm not sure anyone...

Sounds you need one of these. Noise Filters at Crutchfield.com I've ran a few different types over the years and haven't had one that didn't do the job yet.

Amazon.com: Cobra 75WXST 40-Channel CB Radio: Car Electronics Is the one I'm feeling a bit excited to try. It's pretty low down on the list of things that need to happen in my case, but I figure it should be easy enough to stuff in the center console to hide. I also plan on replacing the stock...

The big thing with kill switches is most 'career' car thieves understand that most people are lazy. Even if they're willing to take the time to install a kill switch, and will have the switch somewhere convenient to reach. If the crook has gone far enough to gain access to the cab, they'll look...

Looks sharp!
