He did a Jeremy Clarkson "How hard can it be!?"

no you can't your a lost kitten.

but Tyler isn't a man really. At most he's a feeble child. You knows nothing about leaf springs and grilled cheese

 

Looks like all it needs is a new fender and LBJ...

No, overall you did pretty good.

 

No but be better than just to get drunk

 

Nothing yet, haven't had time or the right tools to drop the trans. I got linked up with a good buddy of a buddy to help me do the work, a mobile guy. Just not looking forward to dropping a transmission any time soon again, change everything.

I don't feel like I did bad at all! I weighted my options, a lot of people said get this, get that, ect, ect. I ended up going with what I felt comfortable price wise and quality wise with.

 

It's nice to get opinions from people on what worked for them but at the end of it your paying and installing it all.

I'll use the excuse that your becoming a dad lol

 

Absolutely, really looking forward to getting this truck in top shape. I'm going to japan in a month so it might have to wait until I return.

 

Take it with you and you'll get some bonus points. An American in a Toyota Truck they'll love you immediately

 

When I went to the toyota museum the last trip, I walked around almost the whole time with a boner. I always bring my TRD shirt.

 

They were probably staring at you hoping you didn't start mating with the cars lol

 

I wouldn't be surprised. Japan is an amazing place. You really "get" why we buy toyotas when you understand japanese culture.

 

it's one of the few countries I want to visit

 

Spoken with wisdom I take it lol

 

Good morning TW

Do y'all have a solution for the 1st gen valve cover bolts loosening and oozing oil onto the manifold? Any links or references?

 

Weld them on? But that defeats the purpose of them
