    Big thanks to Zach, @zhall0522 for rebuilding my compressor motor. I greatly appreciate you.

    Thanks! Very helpful.

    Dude this is actually me every time it's even remotely wet outside. Even in foggy conditions the road is slick. Scariest tires I've ever driven on. Glad I. Not alone.

    So I'm about to pull the trigger on my lift kit from Headstrong but just wanted to get some advice on the OME carrier bearing drop bracket. It comes with the kit that includes the Dakar Leaf Spring Package but not with the kit with HS AAL. Should I get just go all out and get the it with the Dakars or just hold off until the next time? Thanks in advance.

    All those kits are is just 2 square plates and 2 bolts for $30 .
    I personally would just install your lift first and see if you have any vibrations then go from there .

    What all goes into rebuilding a compressor? Should probably do it soon. Ours is like Vietnam era and was told it has the original oil, and it's been used by farmers since it was made :anonymous:

    Hey folks, I don't get on here much anymore, it's been a while. I live out 1431 on the lake and work in Cedar Park.

    Wondering if anyone in the area has access to a tubing bender? I sold mine 5 years ago and kick myself in the ass everyday since. Just need a few tubes bent up, maybe more work in the future for my other project.

    This is my little Tacoma. It's uglier now as the clearcoat is all but gone and I quit caring how it looks on the outside. In the middle of building another go-fast car, but I'd like to button up some things on the Tacoma and get back to some wheeling again.

    Motor and compressor are separate. Compressor is like a combustion engine, it has intake and exhaust valves, piston rings, and shaft bearings. As long as the pistons haven't worn in to the sleeves, it's an easy rebuild.

    It definitely runs better for sure. Now just need to have a compressor rebuild kit on stand by.
