Using a grease that dirt sticks too

I guess I'm not familiar with types of grease, I thought grease was inherently sticky and sucked shit in? That's why you don't use grease on spherical bearings and stuff exposed to the elements since it sucks it in? Maybe I'm totally off base, I've just never heard of something like that...

I already miss the Fiesta.

And that's gay. Take more 4Runner pictures. Jk bot realy

Sweet pooch by the way! Best part of your post

I have no idea. I'm totally out of my element when it comes to this clutch crap. I understand the basics of the internals, and I understand the entire external mechanism (hydraulic and pedal mechanism) completely. I'm gonna screw with it tomorrow. My one day off from studying before I begin studying again for a test on Monday.

I can't describe how much fun that Fiesta is. All the articles are true; you would never think you could have so much fun in a front wheel drive car, but you can. Nearly 30k miles on that car in 14 months and a good portion of those are mine.

The dog seems to enjoy the 4Runner more than I do.

Pictures in a desert setting tomorrow possibly!

Nope, never did it. Plan on it, but never actually did it

When my brother and I changed out the clutches on his two or three Hondas he has owned, this lube was mandatory to use:
New Honda Super High Temp Urea Grease Clutch Pilot Bearing 08798 9002 | eBay

My brother has used this Honda stuff in other clutch applications but has also used Valvoline Synpower synthetic.

Nice puppy.

Test run with the tubbed firewall. I barely rub at all.

Is there any way to prevent your brakes from squeaking. I'm talking like a loud screech. Always happens when I first get going but then after I drive for a little bit it stops. What needs to be done?

Brake pads are cheap, turn the rotors. That would be super easy and should fix the problem.

is that widow maker? ive done that one, its not too bad.

 

[TRDteen]

What are you doing for blinkers in the front? I'm in the same boat. Like those photos from widow maker!

Hey Connor, I've got a quick question for you. I assume that you are still running the Wheelers Bump Stops for the 2nd Gen Tacoma up front. Was there any reason you put them on the front instead of the rear mount on the control arm? When I spoke with the guy at wheelers he recommended placing them on the rear, but said it doesn't matter too much. Any particular reason you went with the front?

I swapped from stock bumpstops to the Wheelers ones in the ASU parking lot with no tools except a pair of channel locks from Harbor Freight. The front was much easier to access haha.

I wired some light strips from Vatozone as turn signals.

Haha gotcha, seems like a good enough reason to me!
