Hey guys, Rookie "mechanic" here attempting his first brake job... Both of the calipers I received from NAPA had a boot that needs to be reseated. Would you guys take these calipers back to NAPA or go through the trouble of reseating the boot? Is this a common thing? If I ordered from a...

Thanks everyone for your input. As advised, I am not going to sweat it.

Probably a dumb question but I am going to ask it anyway... I took my truck in to have the fluids changed (front/rear diff, transfer case, transmission, etc). I provided OEM gaskets/washers for the fill/drain plugs. When I got home and did an inventory of what I had left I noticed that the...

Thank you so much for your help. As you said, it was threaded to the plenum so I was able to pop it out. (Thanks for the part # as well)

Help a rookie out - what are my options for fixing this? I hope I don't have to buy a whole new upper plenum..

OEM is like $70 a pop compared to $20-$40 for an after market link. Would I be content with a cheaper one or is it worth the extra money?

I hate to hear that. The KO2s are my favorite looking AT tire.

How big of a difference will I notice in ride quality from an E rated tire to a P rated tire if the tire is stock size (265/70/16)? I spend most of my time on the highway, so I want the most comfortable ride possible....but I also want an aggressive looking tread because it looks cool.

I currently have 33x12.50x18 tires on my 4Runner. I want to go back to a stock 265/70/16 passenger tire because I travel a good distance to work. Being that I am most concerned with comfort and better acceleration for highway travel, would you suggest a lighter wheel? Or will the weight of the...

Looking at some cheap pro comp 51s for my 4Runner...any reason to not go with a cheap steel wheel?

Toe and camber are fine, but the mechanic couldn't adjust the caster because the cam bolts/washers were seized. Getting those bolts out doesn't sound like a fun project (or a cheap one if I have someone else do it). How will my tires being out of caster alignment affect the longevity of my...

Ah ok. Maybe someone can eyeball it and tell? http://imgur.com/a/7iiFY]Imgur Regardless, I need to get new shocks/springs and sway bar endlinks/bushings in before it gets cold. So if no one knows if those tires will fit, I'll probably order new wheels/tires.

http://i.imgur.com/r5FWCO5.jpg It has come time to replace the shocks/springs. My 4Runner came with the tires and lift already installed, so as far as what is currently on there - I have no clue. I will eventually put on smaller tires since I am driving further to work than I was a few months...

Thank you!

I didn't see anything on MB Wheels website.
