BassAckwards' AWD Turbo 2TR-FE

Nope, truly a piece of cake! Had to remove airbox, and a few other things, but everything went together smoothly. Was very surprised i didnt strip any bolts or mess up the studs. They were rusty after 245K miles

 

Headers on my v6 on the other hand.. a total PITA. Took me and another member 8hrs to do those. These for the 4cyl only took a couple hrs

 

You should pick you up some kroil oil for the future rusted bolts. Nothing better

 

Will have to pick up a can of this. Never know when it might come in handy! So much easier than trying to get a stripped nut off..

 

Read how to use it. Its not fast acting but to prep for the job. It will literally crawl into the threads and release the nut or bolt. We get in 55gal drums. Been using it for years.

 

Glad it's alive again!

I mean, that's all we can all fit, right?

That's basically all I want. Except it'll be a truck that sounds like a tractor.

Oh is it this one?!



Because you should put that bish on both your trucks.

So shiny. Day late and a dollar short but I've heard of you use a high temp ceramic clear coat they'll stay looking new like that. Haven't confirmed it though.

 

That's gettin included now! The 80MPH freeways in central Utah don't agree with my truck. Especially in a headwind. I just cruise in the right lane, and wave as the 50' RVs pass me.

I'll have to give this a try. Have you ever used Seafoam's Deep Creep?

 

Sounds like something you need medication to get rid of.

 

Yes sir, it's good stuff.

 

Good to know, that makes sense though, cant expect it to work right then and there, might take a little time to break em loose. Will absolutely get some of this. I think i've used PB blaster and it worked pretty good. I've heard Kroil is among the best

 

Me too! When it needed the clutch, that's the longest it's ever been out of commission

We can make anything fit with a little work..
Definitely interested to hear what yours sounds like after you put a dirty tune in it

YAAASS, was thinking about one of those, like you said would be great for both of my trucks lol

Never heard of the ceramic clear, but that is interesting.. Good to know for future reference

 

You have the v6 though right? im guessing stock gearing?

 

Yep. Rocking 265/75R16s on stock gears, but the ST Maxx are about .5" bigger than a normal 265/75 at 32.01 inches

 

Gotcha, the E-load hurts performance too, my st maxx are stupid heavy

 

"ran" (was left behind) by a F150 with the 5.0 this morning. Really made me wish i was in my other truck. His truck looked really slow when he floored it lol, sounded badass though

 

So true.

 

So nice to not worry about flats though! My p-rated tires on my red truck are dumb. They go flat if they get a nail in them, with the eloads, just keep driving

 

I'm really looking at an S/C once my powertrain runs out. But then I gotta get premium gas, not sure if it is all worth it. Or just go to 33s and regear and deal with it that way.
