What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

It does. Don’t think it’s intended to be installed. I install, drain filter housing, then remove.

 

Good to hear I was starting to wonder what in the heck I bought. This whole cartridge filter thing is new to me. Thanks for the info!

 

If the plastic concerns you this is the metal replacement, about $30USD on Amazon:
Genuine

$35 Toyota 15620-31060 15643-31050

Toyota 15620-31060 Oil Filter Cap Assembly

 

I finally wired up my UpTop Under Hood Lights with 2 Baja Designs rock lights

 

I do oil and filter changes every 5000 miles.

You’ll want to change the filter housing to the metal one. Someone posted the link (sorry can’t remember who) a few posts ago. I kept thinking i was going to break the plastic housing.

However... I'm going to deduct a full point for the dirty pine needles.

 

I was going to address that but it seems like it will just fill back up overnight.

 

Wish I'd known this before I bought the wrench for the plastic one... spend some, learn some, spend some more!

 

Same wrench fits. Housings are same, just different material.

 

I’d rather just let a shop do it but I want to learn this stuff myself just never turns out like the YouTube vids lol

 

Filter should be done with the oil change along with a new gasket

 

They are a great running board and I highly recommend. They are well built and I have had no issues.

 

Isn't that curious.

In my day it was OIL change every 3K. filter every other oil change.

I guess we don't trust filters any more.

 

Does the tool that fits the OEM Fiber reenforced Plastic (FRP) filter cap also fit the metal caps?

The right tool makes any task easier!

Opps! See post 218402!

 

Did a little exploring

 

Please post pics when you do some catching on that ice.

 

The graffiti needs to go. Some people are stupid and destructive.

 

So the quality control on Prinsu racks ain't great then. For some reason I thought they're a bolt together then screw down on the factory roof inserts?...,good to know...I will most likely go with UpTop or Victory 4x4...

 

Oh no, the Prinsu is a fantastic product and absolutely 100% bolt on. It's the factory weather strip in the roof rail that I'm talking about. Unless Uptop or Victory provide their own stripping to replace the factory stripping, which I don't think they do, you'll have the same experience with those.
