The Lair

There is no way I am going to get caught up....hundreds of pages of unread posts. Anyone have cliff notes since April?

 

Check out @EatSleepTacos toob dawrz DIY thread. He painted a dick on his door. No joke I guess it is ok to be one but to advertise it to the public is a totally different story

Replacing the diff seal isn't too terribly hard. The hardest part IMO was setting it to the perfect depth so it wouldn't leak. It took me 3 tries before I got it right! As far as stuck drain plug, I forget which kind. Is it the kind that accepts an allen key, or just the regular bolt?

I hear you about the extra work. They're ramping up our responsibilities at work and it's stressful. And no extra pay!

Ahaha damn you're far behind.

 

I removed fender flares, and am building tube doors. Now you're all caught up! Oh and I got a new front bumper and wider tires. Not sure if you were here for that.

 

@08TRDOFFROAD my truck died a tragic death in flooding we had. STOAA was disband. The Lair lost its flair for a bit but now we are getting the mojo back. @EatSleepTacos started #RandyFab he had decals made out

 

What is the right depth?

It is the front diff drain, accepts the 10 mm allen. When I was trying to get it out with a breaker bar, I felt like it was just going to strip out. Haven't tried hitting it with the impact yet.

 

Is there discussion about it in here? I want the full story on this tragedy!

 

I don't remember off the top of my head. When you remove the CV axle, you'll see that there's a little lip. You basically install it flush with the lip. And use OEM!

For the drain bolt, you've got a couple options. Keep trying and hope you don't round, use a small torch to heat the area, or use a air hammer with a chisel to rip it open. Then just replace the bolt.

 

My wife and I have started shopping for a 06-09 4Runner...Decided we needed a bigger vehicle (3rd row) and another capable of towing. It will be replacing my wife's Camry.

We went and looked at one a week ago, a 2007 with 128k miles, but it turned out to be a rust bucket bought at auction from the northeast...

 

What about a sequoia? This one looks nice!

My wife actually sent me a Sequoia this morning that we might go look at tonight, much newer than we were planning, but decently priced.

 

New pair vs old pair. 4 years of daily wear.

 

If only I were skinny enough to feel like I could pull off a pair of cowboy boots...

 

Said the Duke never.

 

I might camp Saturday night, you can leave them there? Just an option.

 

If you do, I’ll do that. Only takes 10 min to swap on the tube doors. I’ll just cover my doors in a tarp at your camp site

 

Weren’t you going to bed Randy?
