haha I was going to say the same thing but then realized I'm at work, didn't want to search for the news article on his arrest given what I'd need to type in the search bar...

 

Probably way more than I know about.

 

Well at least they are out now, wonder if we'll see new shocks

 

Bet he confirmed the reasons why you lube things.

 

This makes me more excited than it should...



Also I think I may have found the solution to my pulley problem. Looks like a lower idler pulley from a 1GR-FE is exactly what I need. Gonna go to Orielly to check one out.

 

It is a little smaller but a 2010 Tacoma V6 lower pulley will bolt in place of the 4cyl TRD supercharger pulley as a replacement.

 

Just an idler or a static tensioner?

 

It's an idler pulley, no one makes a dynamic tensioner for this application. The tensioner pulley is the one for my power steering.

 

So while I was walking to my truck I noticed the driver side rear end is leaning a little bit, what could be the cause?

 

All the heavy stuff's on that side, gas tank, battery, you.

 

You calling me heavy?!

 

You use to be in a colder climate, so I'm sure it kept you warm at one point.

 

Get a fat girlfriend it will even out.

 

Any drawbacks of using bolt-on sliders vs. weld-on?

 

have to drill into frame

 

Sure, but is that a problem if you’re in a non-rust belt state?

 

Not really but also why bother. Weld on is arguably easier unless you own a Magdrill
