    Well my truck has sat in the same spot for about 8 months. Finally got the projects done for the new house (that require a garage). This weekend I am cleaning the garage up and prepping it for the new resting place for BabyT :(. Excited and nervous about this adventure, but how bad could it be? Can't really fuck up a currently fucked up engine, right haha!

    Sorry I have been so distant with the forum. I'll have pictures and updates as I go through the process of pulling the 2trfe. I am probably going to take the timing cover off first, before pulling, to see if the issue may be timing related.

    Hope everyone had a great year!

    Man, you really had your Taco modded up nice. You’ll like the Tundra, not quite as nimble but man the power is nice.

    I hope the engine work goes well man! Congratulations on the new home. I too haven’t been on TW lately as well.

    I don't think you want that large of an exhaust for the 2TR. If you dig around here, you'll find where @tooter has done extensive research, and doesn't recommend that large of an exhaust

    I’m 5’10 and hated the bench seat with a passion. Within 6 months I yanked it out and swapped in bucket seats and it was the best purchase of my life.

    Got the rear fenders on. The bolt holes dont match that well so they are being held on by 3 bolts.

    Lately, I've been getting more compliments on my truck than I have in the past and people have expressed interest in buying it. Is this happening to anyone else? Not sure if this anything to do with the fact that they don't manufacture regular cab 4cyl 4x4's anymore.
