    Got my Weather Tech floor mats installed, cleaned the dirt out of the rain drip weather strip, washed and detailed it. New pic on my profile. Oh, and my plates came from the DOL finally.

    Rotated tires, removed drive shaft, and brought it to a shop to have them replace the u joints and center support bearing. They will also balance it. I supplied the u joint and center support bearing (oem). Since toyota does not make the u joints for the double cardran joint, I just told them to rebuild it with what they have. He seems like he does really good work.

    I think I have a warped rear drum or two. Symptoms of bad vibrations throughout the truck under braking. Not vibrating through the steering wheel.

    On list to order is a BPV relocation bracket and I guess new rear drums. Do I have to get an entire new drum assembly or can I just replace the outer drum cover part?

    I did...to my folks. Mom thought it was acting weird so I took it for a little spin to see if I could tell any difference. Everything felt weird...seat, steering wheel, suspension.... :laugh:
    See? Runner and Toy hanging out in the driveway

    wtf are you talking about? thats the best budget ever.

    -No rent
    -No food bill

    You live for FREE dude.

    I worked 3 jobs in High school and bought an 87 supra turbo and built it. Then started the truck.

    You think truck parts are pricey??? Car parts...whole other level..

    Quit partying and get a job man. Build it now! While you can...

    I dont see why you have to go through the wheel well at all. I removed the throttle body for cleaning, then used either stubby box end wrenches or both 1/4" and 3/8" ratchets with various sized extensions to loosen first the banjo bolts, then the bracket holding the filter on. Im 6'2", and i even need to stand on a stool to get up in the manifold.

    But whatever works.

    Try a single income family (2x kids) budget... mortgage, student loans, gas, electric, cable, cell, the list goes on.

    Not even going to mention the lack of free time.

    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.

    IIRC it's like $500 and then $200 to ship to GA. Extremely affordable. But it's a one man show so best option is to call him
