What Did You Do To Your 3rd Gen Today?

In my mind I do... I didn't see them on the site so I was going to search and get the specs. I know they were talked about on here. I've also got to get another set of cam bolts. I've got one set that never went in yet.

Figured all of this, and the ADS Coilovers that I bought I think around Thanksgiving can sit for a few months till I get gears. Then put it all in at once.

Part number: 90080-10066.

For a couple bucks, definitely worth getting new ones. I ordered 12 last time, 4 for in vehicle spares. Little bit of money for a good piece of mind

Thanks for sharing! I was scoping out that very spot this morning, it does look like a solid mount location. The only downside is with the phone in place, the clock would be obscured. I tend to look at my clock a lot, I guess it's just force of habit.

I am betting the phone becomes the clock... but that would assume the lock screen stays on at least.
 
It's 2 degrees out, cool. Good day to do the Tundra Brake Up..

Thanks to Timmeh & Sean for that awesome video, it made all the difference.

Installed this rear rear mirror with Homelink, compass and temp. I’d post a pic of it mounted if it weren’t too eff’in cold for the glue to set up.

I bit the bullet and kicked my wallet in the Jimmy by ordering 100" of Masterpull Superline 5/16th line, a Factor 55 Flatlink expert, and a Factor 55 1.5 inch Hawse fairlead. Ouch! Lol. This is a late Festivus, early birthday present to myself. I think I am with it, lol.

Happy Festivus. Sounds like some solid choices. My winch came with synthetic. It was 30 LBS lighter then the same model with cable. Enjoy the weight savings. Both on the front of your rig and in your wallet. lol

I'm glad I'm not the only one who celebrates Festivus...

Synthetic is the way to go, I want one of the factor 55 prolinks, but I haven't been able to justify the cost yet. Hoping to pick one up used for cheaper somewhere.

Two degrees eh? Yea, not me. I turn into a real p*&sy doing any car maintenance when it drops below 50F. 100F? No problem.

I miss that Porter Cable air compressor. Some jacked up meth moron broke into my sis's garage and stole mine. The Dewalt replacement has never been as good....:spit:
 
Mounted my ARB air compressor.

I found a helpful thread in here that explained how to pull the ABS codes. I did manage to drop and lose the tiny "jump pin" from inside of the Diagnosis terminal box, so I just hacked up a paper clip jumper.

I pulled a code 31, which tells me that the issue is at the RF corner. I found that interesting because when I was doing the LBJ's last week, I noticed that the RF wheel was a bit hard to turn by hand. I figured that the caliper was dragging. Now I have to look closer, maybe I have a bad wheel bearing which could cause both of those issues.

Also- my new KYB Monomax rear shocks showed up yesterday. Too damn cold to be laying on the asphalt at the storage unit to install them today.

Went on a nice little adventure with my best friend around a friend's 120 acre property. She loved it, the truck got to exercise the new elocker and all was well...

...until we got stuck in some really bad mud and needed help getting out. :)

I've sold dozens of these 4Runner Shackle Brackets and today, I got the chance to finally use one to get my butt out of a bind!

Use the "huge thumbnail" link from Imgur to get correctly sized photos for forums... otherwise they will be huge. (it simply adds an 'h' to the end of the file name before the .jpg file extension)

THANK YOU! Yes, I meant to yell that. I have been frustratingly working on that for about 20 minutes! So much so, I deleted the post and then say what you wrote. Thanks again! Now I know. :)
 
Replaced my spare 265/70/16 tire with a used 285/75/16 BFG KO with maybe 1/4 tread aired down to about 15 psi. Rubs the panhard bar (as expected). Might try to shave 3/16”-1/4” of the rear of the hitch receiver with a cutoff wheel to see if that’s enough to help it clear. That’s all that’s available back there without getting into the nearest welds.
