What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

[BamAustian]

any after pics after the suspension?

Haha I do. It's a "teaser" photo , since only front is done. But gives you good feel of before and after.

whats the part number for that and are there any holes behind the headliner to align it and put in it? I wanna do that mod as well.

I don't know the part number but just go to a junk yard ( or ebay ) and pull any 3rd gen grab-handle in the color you need. They all fit the same.

As for the holes — the holes are already there behind the headliner. Look over at your passenger side roof mounted grab-handle and then feel the same spot but on the driver's side. You should feel the holes behind the headliner.

Use a razor, screwdriver or whatever pokey thing you have handy and poke two holes in the liner where you feel the mounting holes behind the headliner. Then just screw in your junk yard grab-handle and you are done.

Thanks!
I'm anxious to get it done. Slowly but surely

Next up is new fuel delivery/sending unit as mine is jacked up.
Rear springs, shocks, trac bar, brake line extension, bump stop extenders and bump stops, bushings, etc.

Finally pulled the trigger on new OEM OTRs and ITRs from Japan!

It's been about two weeks since I ordered the LBJs and they estimated ~6 weeks so I hope to have the LBJs in a month and OTRs and ITRs in 6 weeks.

Totaled just a couple dollars over 400 for LBJ's, ITRs, OTRs, bolts and boots shipped. Saving ~250 compared to the online options (Cart at Camelback was 647.34)

Next up: knock sensor (throwing code P0325) and timing belt/water pump.

Finally started my revival.
Last night this AM tackled Valve cover gaskets, tune up, tundra brake up, and pretty much front suspension over haul

Those spark plug tube seals look like they're installed backwards

Good eye!!! When I snapped this pic they were backwards...
I had a DOH moment, and had to reverse them after I quickly realized they wouldn't go over the tubes.

Also, did you install that PVC valve? I bought the same thing from ebay thinking it was OEM. Installed it and got even worst MPGs. Bought an OEM, which was noticeable better quality and finally corrected my MPG issues. Cost difference was only $3 too.

Out of hibernation!!

We've accumulated over 3 feet of snow over the last 5 days. Finally cleaned off our T4R mud truck and played in the snow. Awesome day!

I did, I got a new grommet and valve from Rock auto. Can't recall the brand I chose. But I certainly will keep eye on mpg, and if needed order from Toyota .

I am also not sure of the part number but I did put my stock rear handle up front and used a handle from a 2nd gen. Color doesn't match too well but it's in the back so I am not too concerned.

I found if you sit in the back seat behind the driver and look at where the front handle will go, you will see two indentations where the holes are. I was really surprised to see it so clear. Can't see it from the drivers seat. Used a exacto to make a tiny slice and on it went.

I did a little bit of work on my Satoshi grill mod...

Keep it up! All that hard work will come to fruition.
