Broke the center rear slider window out. And the shell is glued on. Gonna be fun getting it off so the winder can be replaced. May not screw with it for a while....

Trashbag res style. Be sure and leave it for a couple years or whenever the silver peels off the duct tape leaving only the glue and white thread, unless the transmission goes out and you park it beside the house for the Johnson grass to grow around first.

Not today but a couple weeks ago on vacation. Got mine well and truly stuck, had to have a half ton Chevy and a 3/4 ton Ford chained together to drag it out. Who would have guessed that the NW Nebraska Sandhills don’t have a bottom.

Just recently built up this little Toyota up as a hunting truck. Been working the bugs out of it. 33" tires with 4.88's is a perfect match. Craigslist canopy and wheels, ARB winch bumper and ARB air lockers front and back. Nice setup for offroad and good road manners. Speedo quit, still need a winch, and want to do a motor swap to a 3.4 with a supercharger. This winter I'll build a rear bumper for it with swing-away tire mount.

I am really intrigued by them and they seem to have really good reviews. They also seemed to be very reasonably priced. Thinking about putting these on my wifes new 4 runner in place of the factory tires.

I did the same a few thousand miles ago, Tikkanut. Replaced the Cooper Discoverer AT3 with Falken Wilkpeak AT3w on my F-350 diesel and won't be going back. If the wife's new Suburban didn't have brand new tires it would be getting a set of the Falkens.

Based on your experience on a tacoma - similar wieght to a 4runner - would you recommend the SL P metric version or the LT C range tire? Since there is will be no towing with this vehicle and at least 95% on road driving that the P rated version would be the way to go. Right now in a 265/70/17 - I can get them direct for $114 a tire!

look at the comparison chart......really no need for the 'E' rated...but E vs SL is 6 lbs heavier per tire along with approx 4/32 more tread https://www.discounttiredirect.com/compare/product

Replaced the driver's side exhaust manifold gasket and hardware on the '02 Durango 4.7. It's been on the list but not a huge priority. Now that we picked up the Suburban I've got to get the Durango ready to sell.

Put some shoes on Elsie. Got some OME springs and shocks to add, to get 2.5” up.

Measured the back of the Hilux to ensure the Pelican 1750 will fit across it, when it gets here I am going to inset some rings so I can lock the 1750 down with cable locks to discourage theft.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
