    In the process. Madison sent me a link to someone selling their spindles.
    Brand new ones cost around 500

    The Birds fine man. I've been driving it a lot since Anza and no issues. Gave it a oil change and messed with the carb tuning and its been going strong. I'm not too worried about it. If I was I would get rid of it trust me. I hate gambling and only do it when I think I have a good chance of coming on top.
    Ok and I appreciate that guys, but lets be real in the fact I make much stupider decisions (not agreeing that this is stupid lol) than what cars I decide to drive. And Danny is right in this case, I am gonna be stubborn on this and keep doing my own thing when it comes to my cars. Is there a chance I'm gonna end up learning a lesson the hard way? Yes. Wouldn't be the first time. Is that gonna stop me? No. There's a chance I'm gonna drive off the side of the mountain on Thursday on my way down to help my buddy fix his 4runner but it won't stop me either. I stick to my cars because I enjoy my cars. I'd much rather have a beater and enjoy it then a reliable Prius and hate it. If that makes me an idiot then I will be the first to tell you I'm the biggest idiot there is. Oh well. Thanks again for the concern, it is appreciated :thumbsup: :cheers:

    I was only going 10 mph. Not sure exactly what went wrong.
    But even if it doesn't get fixed in time, I'm still looking to Cruz to JT. Might just have to roll out in my 01 Civic though. Hahha

    OUCH! That's a bigger knock than my headgasket
    I would be down. Doubt I'd be on the list of approved renters though. Oh well lol
    Hmm interesting way to do it. Would think the Civic would be the daily with better gas mileage and all

    All this talk about vehicles really gets me thinking about the cars I really want currently haha. I'd love an old muslce car as a project car and to drive whenever I feel like it but not have to depend on it you know. Realistically I could do that now and continue to use the Taco as a daily. While at the same time I'd really love a 4door offroader soooo :boink::notsure:

    It would. But sitting in rush hour traffic everyday in a stick gets old, quick.

    I do have a 98 Tacoma 4x4 I could bring,​
    But the clutch is shot :annoyed:

    So in other words kinda what I got going on lol. I'm just at a low because the runner died. Honestly that was the first time it's disappointed me in the 3 years I've owned it, and that's really saying something considering I actually tried to kill it at first lol
    Ahh that makes a lot more sense.

    Steal the clutch out of the Civic and put it in the Taco. Give it enough duct tape and zip ties and I'm sure it'll work fine! :sawzall: :welder:

    Wow 3 vehicles lucky you! Have any photos of the 98?
    No not really... kinda sorta.. My tacoma is a lot more reliable than the mudrunner, no offense it just is. And I wouldn't buy a 6 cylinder muscle car unlike some people here... :D

    Maybe these ideas of yours are the reason your cars are hangin on by a thread.
    Innovative? Or naive?


    Haha jk.
    Yeah I know, the clutch is around a 800 to replace. I should do a little swap a roo.
    Would rather replace the spindle on my 03 first though.
    That 98 is a sissy. Not knocking all you 4 bangers out there. But still. It can barely crawl up a hill.
