I hit a coyote in my 2012 tacoma and it liked to tear the entire frt end off the truck. Hair wedge in the tire between the rim and rubber. New frt bumper, New rt fender...and a bunch of other lil parts to numerious to mention. And I was only doing 45mph

Looks like my 02 bit the bust yesterday. I was on the last 30min of the mail route and cylinder #1 let go. Poor thing started bucking and stalling as I accelerated off a side road onto the highway. Gently got to my next side road and stopped. 3 key switches and had p0301. Got out, unhooked the...

Totally my bad...I was referring to the wrong thing. They stripped out the upper control arm mounting threads on each side. Not the center.

And if "someone" stripped the bolt hole out? What would be the tap size? One of the carriers in out office has a factory right drive and his people can't figure out how to fix it

Even tho it was way too hot, the little stuff I did, seems to have helped out on a few issues. Fan clutch installed, new map sensor, new coolant temp sensor, also replaced the ambient/compass sensor, wrapped wires that were missing the wrap. So this vibration I would get went away. Figure...

Too bad...well...let's jus hope he is doing OK and this engine of mine stays together for a looonnnggg time!

Unfortunately, one day in the future, I will also be doing this same thing. Sounds like I might or will need to pick your brain. Great write up!

Got the old clutch off, what a pain in the tail!! Really jus cooling off and thinking while typing (all the stuff I wanna do). So the heavy cooling system is an option? Didn't know. Have the big plastic fan that mounts to the water pump, plus the electric. Don't hear the electric to often so...

Working on fan clutch replacement... Why does everything have to be soooo difficult. Hope this goes smoothly. I did give it a bath today. She was so dirty!

I'm so jealous

Thanks for that link, I too have that same problem and need to resolve it soon!

Well... Imo...and it is jus an opinion. I have a great ride with the Bil shocks and OME springs. I could corner on pavement at higher speeds, not suggesting it should be driven that way, but "I AM A PROFESSIONAL DRIVER" on an open road. AND...I could ride the roughest roads and climb any...

Mail route wears everything out 4 sure. Doesn't matter what you drive. Need the beefiest of parts. Wears me out also. Roads are rough and lumpy. Country chip seal roads with no actual level to them, pot holes every where. One day....I wanna post a video to the FB page.

I did what I could do at the time. Knew they wouldn't last long on a 600 mile a week mail route. Got me this far tho. Starting squeaking bout a month ago. Been sticking the grease needle in them once a week and keeping them full but I can tell. Wish I knew where to find TTXs for the lowers. Anybody?

The lower ball joint...gets the eyes rolling into the back of my head...I jus did the lower control arms and lower ball joints...6 months ago? Anyways...pretty sure it's time again

Ty ty, tested...very low voltage. Looks like the voltage if the highbeams were on.

Finally had a lil time to remove the frt bumper cover, replaced a mess if wiring someone spliced together for the sm, fog lamps. While doing that, HOOKS have been deployed. Replacement wiring harness did not fix the hyper flash trunk signal, that only happens when headlights are on. Did not fix...

Now I want to change all 4! Looked at them last night after my posting reply on my 2 days of driving my mail route. The whole exhaust system looks OG, up to the muffler. So could be a huge part of my fuel mileage issue. Will wait for a good scan gun diagnosis.

Wish there was *A WAY* to bypass that restrictive garbage. Don't know what a "good" scan tool is...open to suggestions tho. Would love to have one!! And yes...I have visibility checked the ENTIRE under belly of this beast. Wires look well and wrapped with heat sleeves. One sleeve was kinda up...
