    It's a custom piece built by a local member that has since had lots of modification by myself.

    Good so far, I had the original AT's before not the greatest traction on the second half of their life and a little bouncy. I leave for a trip to Moab Saturday and was going to have a better post in a tire thread when I get back!

    Time for an oil change - always love dealing with the stealership :rofl:

    FIPG is expensive as hell! Needed to reseal my transmission pan and front differential when I swap the manual tube over for my 4x4 swap.

    Nothing fancy or fun... yet
    Ordered lower ball joints and outer tie rod ends for my Taco. Don't think I'll start a Build thread quite yet. o_O

    But hey, at 260,000 miles with everything original... I think this way is the best way to start.

    Water pump timing belt should be a priority if it's all original

    All of what I am changing is original.

    Timing belt went at about 180,000 miles. Waterpump isn't the priority when you're starting to get out of alignment and eat a driver steer tire.

    just what I need to do what I want
    The other day I saw the manager of my gym driving a clean 3rd gen 4rnr, a little lift, rims and tires. Asked him if he had ever done LBJ's, no and I 'm over 200k miles. I suggested he look in to it. Today he tells me he crashed his runner b/c the LBJ blew, thank GOD no one hurt. He is now driving Subaru WRX. Change those ball joints boys, easy to do, cheap through Sadeback Toyota
