    In the process of cleaning the throttle body and glad I decided to. I'll probably also do the intake manifold because it is also pretty bad. The air intake side is so much cleaner image.jpg

    I gave it the finger and headed to my GF's. About to sit poolside.

    My friend's shop is warrantying out the power steering pump on Thursday so they'll throw the new AC belt on at the time.

    Cool thanks for chiming in. Was worried that the older trucks maybe didn't have the right components or something. Glad to know it will work. I mean I could always just turn them off completely when in the desert.

    Check to make sure its not the rack guide in the rack. Had a shop tell me my inner tie rods were shot, put new ones on and still had the same play at the wheels. Turns out the guide in the rack was the source of my issues

    At the low spot at the intake plenum to manifold connection there is a small puddle of oil and is the throttle body and entire intake system is very dirty and gunked up. Would this be from an oil leak somewhere?image.jpg

    here's a pic of the 3rd gen 4runner seats i swapped in to my truck. the color isn't a perfect match but the extra comfort and support makes up for that.

    Rebooted my cv axles today for the first time. Just the inners. Between taking them out, rebooting, running to get tools, putting cvs back in, draining/putting new diff oil in... it took 6 hour... :anonymous:

    Now I'm going to drink myself to sleep.

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    PCV valve. Take it out and lightly shake it. If it doesn't rattle it needs to be cleaned or replaced. Either way, clean it out with Carb Cleaner.

    Bought a camper off craigslist for $80. Color matched leer. However, the back glass is broken... How do I ID this camper shell to find a replacement? The Leer serial number didn't help
