    Great.....

    Yep, I just cut mine off. Shaft was absolutely caked in mud, I have no idea how long that must have been there.

    Help Diagnosing Front Suspension Ping Noise

    I have this exact noise as well (along with a couple other suspension noises). The way you described it and the thread you linked are exactly how it sounds to me too when going over speed bumps. My front sway bar and end links are completely removed, so the noises aren't coming from there in...

    Blind Spot Mirrors?

    100% agreed. I honestly never believed that it would actually be so effective until I actually did it. Now I don't know how I ever used to have my vision be so narrow.

    Suspension Clunk

    Hmm, tried holding the brake on bumps, it doesn't seem to quiet the clunking. I think that I've honed the noises down to different areas though. Sounds like the front passenger makes the big clunks, is there a good method to check whether or not the upper control arm has a bad ball joint? It...

    Suspension Clunk

    I've been hearing a deeper "clunk" noise of what sounds like metal hitting metal on potholes and bumps. I don't know if it is also related, but I'm also hearing a very high pitched metal squeak on uneven roads - it just takes the smallest amount of unevenness to set it off. Even further, every...

    Foxwing awning/annex group buy round 4

    Did anyone else receive their awning without any hardware, rope, or stakes that was mentioned in the instructions? I don't mind running to Home Depot, but I'd like to know what hardware to get to install the rack.

    Creating a custom auxiliary battery mount

    Has anybody created their own mount for a secondary battery under the hood near the air box? I know that the Off-Grid Engineering battery tray exists, but I'm extremely reluctant to drop $170 on it. I'm trying to fit a Group 27 battery in there, does anybody have any dimensions or plans that I...

    Factory roof rack nylon bolt inserts

    So I was adding on the factory rack and broke one of the brackets that the bolts go through to attach the rack to the frame. These things: https://partsouq.com/tesseract/assets/partsimages/Toyota/6318735020.jpg It broke off inside (I'm guessing directly into the headliner?) so I'll need to...

    who here has bypassed the AIS system on their v8 toyota? Should I bypass mine??

    I have a 2006 V8 with exactly 160k and mine just gave out. Got the kit from slyfox before it threw any codes and luckily I dodged a bullet. Started with the shop vac sound, but since bypassing I've had no issues. 100% worth it, mine even has slightly less miles than yours and it bit the dust hard.

    Rewiring rear 12v cigarette lighter to auxiliary battery

    Has anyone done this before? Where would I look to rewire this? I'd like to rewire the rear cigarette lighter to an always hot connection to an auxiliary battery in a dual battery setup. I believe it is rated to 15amps in the fuse box currently, but this is also a bit of information that I'm...

    Sorry to hear that man, awnings can always wait, and you're a champ for organizing all of this. I hope for a speedy recovery!

    Foxwing awning/annex group buy round 4

    Sorry to be such a bother, that diagram is super helpful! Do you happen to also have the one for the 2m square awning?

    Foxwing awning/annex group buy round 4

    Ah ok, gotcha. I wasn't sure if it was a proper square or not. So if that can be considered the width, the length will also either 2m or 2.5m, respectively? Seems to be that way in the picture, but I just want to be sure. If so, I'm in for a 2.5m square drivers side tan awning!

    Foxwing awning/annex group buy round 4

    This is a random question, I know, but can anyone tell me the length of the side in red in this picture on the square (either 2m or 2.5m) awning? What I'm trying to do is jerry rig an ARB awning room or Tuff Stuff awning room to attach to that square area.
