So in running the numbers I am currently pulling a 1325lb trailer with approx 1000lbs of gear. The new enclosed is 2400lbs and will still have 1000lbs of year in it. So I am only adding about 1000lbs of weight that I am pulling.

I am just towing around town making several stops usually about 12 per day. So no highway or long trips. My longest trip would be about 15 minutes at Most.

So I use my 06 sport in my business to tow a 7x14 open trailer. With the trailer and gear it must be about 2500lbs. I am looking to get a 8.5x16 enclosed and a bit nervous about towing it. My 06 is a v8 and I tore out the xtres system and had Toyota installl bilstein 5100 and I run day star...

So I read all those and was wondering can I leave my spacers in front and rear and just set the fronts at “x” to get back to the height I am at currently?

How in the hell did I miss all those?

So I am pretty sure my xreas system is gone. Getting a weird noise out of My passenger front. And there is nothing really to it. So I read all the suspension threads and it seems like the 5100s are the way to go. But I am running a daystar 2.5/1 spacer kit and would like to keep the same...

And it's not all the time. Only sometimes do I smell it. I was beginning to think they maybe spilled coolant when refilling it. I see no leaks and the coolant on the bumper is gone. Either way I called them and they said bring it back in

I noticed today when I came home a sweet Coolant smell from the exhaust. Is this normal? I just turned 100k on my V8. Last week the my Toyota dealer replaced my radiator as it had a small leak in the bottom and now I have this smell. I also had coolant on my front bumper which I am not sure...

So the lug nuts on my 06 are rusty. Should I try to clean them or just replace them? If so anyone got a part number? My book shows two models and I am. It sure if I need short or long? I am running black TRD rims so maybe I should go black? Any advice?

So I went to turn on my defroster and it blew all these little water droplets on the inside of my windshield. It has been really cold here and it was warmer today. Only did it once and then nothing. My heat is fine, no leaking on the passenger floor and no swert smell like coolant. Any ideas...

So my rear wiper runs once on startup now. Wtf? Judy started yesterday and the only thing that has changed is that It has gotten cold here. When I got the switch it still works fine. Just runs once and then shuts off. Any suggestions?

I had limited success with mine. I used the cleaner and then the restorer. It took a lot of black grime off my trim and made it a little bit darker. But not as Much as I hoped.

Lawyer up.

That would drive me insane.

Thank you. Yeah those stupid clips. I pulled the dash out of my wife's Avalon last week to fix a vent and lost, but finally found, a couple of this clips. I should buy some extras if that is possible.
