Wyoming B.S. Thread

Right price but bit too rough for my taste.

Also damn. Flipped on it's side after lbj failure. Ouch.

Well...I don't even own a cooler haha and used a tiny styrofoam thing. We spaced it completely. Haha

And my little truck has never had ac. Didn't come with it. Was not happy when I found that out after driving to Colorado to get it. No AC no CC no power windows. I had assumed it had as it was an SX package and thought that that meant it came with everything like the LX package.

Oh well.

I'm pretty close to just taking it to the dealership and paying 1200 bucks to have them put it in.

 

Remind me never to have kids, all the local camper sales places have orders to shoot me on sight, if I'm approaching I've lost my mind and it's time to be put down

 

There's no way it's only $1200, it would be more than that in labor alone

 

That's what they quoted me last year or two years ago when I called an asked

 

Yeah Idk. Not sure, for all I know the guy was just quoting me the parts. Not sure.

I actually have the switch and dash piece already, bought it a while ago. Don't have anything else though.


And if Dan got quoted that for the EVAP core LOL what a rip off. That comes out in like 10 mins tops. Super easy to get too. The refrigerant is tricky though.

 

If I had the cash I’d just throw some new doors/ fender on it and line the whole thing


Maybe I’m not seeing something

 

The heater core sucks. It's buried right in the center of the dash. The AC exchanger is right behind the glove box. 4 bolts hold it in. All you have to to do is remove the glove box and the 4 bolts. Undo the AC lines and pull it out. Shouldnt have to even pull the dash. Might have to remove the ecu I guess but also easy. Two bolts.

Heater core everything has to come out...like everything. Sucks.

Idk if the pulley is different. Knowing Toyota I'd be pretty shocked if it was. That way they don't have to make two different crank pulleys

 

Rear doors are VERY hard to find. Cab has a few tweaks too. Be okay for a beater I guess.

 

Stand by

 

Your gonna feel stupid after seeing this. I kind of do.


Of course there are all the slots for it because the furthest out one is for the power steering so literally makes no sense to not have it for the AC.

 

Part I doubt I am is the bracket for the compressor which also shares a bolt or two with the engine mounts...so that'll be fun. Idk. I guess I need to make a call again and see what they say.

 

I have one. And a compressor.

 

Did it work?

 

You'd need to ask WY Brett.

 

Why Brett?

 

Parts only

 

It worked but, I think the clutch was having some issues, idk

 

My wife's knees aren't the best either, but she made the hike last summer. I drive school but and have taken groups of kids to Porcupine lots of times. I told my wife if a bunch of chubby third graders can make it she can. She did, but it was pretty much at the limits of what she can do.

Exhausted wife in front. Daughter and grandkids following. And of course Astro the wonder pup in the foreground.


Our grandson at the falls. You guys are right, the water is cold. Couldn't get him to do more than wade a little. When I was there with a school group two years ago, some of the older kids and one of the teachers went swimming. Way too cold for me.

 

Fixed my spray nozzle. The plastic adapter split from freezing last year. I think I have more money in the brass fittings and spray gun than the damn pump sprayer thing. But glad to have it back.

 

Nice. Filled mine up today to go camping this weekend and noticed the clamp/holder things for the pump handle are starting to crack. I need to stop picking it up by the pump handle when it's full...
