    Alright yeah it was maybe in the truck 6 months. I knew that was probably the case. Considering I pulled the dealer history and the truck lived with SLL up until that point I’ll just call it bad luck.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Spill and fill your SLL one more time at some point in the next year and you're pretty much guaranteed to be fine on that front

    On the head gasket? I’ve unfortunately drained and filled this truck with SLL like 4 times in the last 2 years thanks to radiator cracks. The water pump is leaking really bad again too so I’m probably pulling the motor.

    Maybe a bit overkill but something isn’t right.

    I’m really happy the fuel issues are solved on the beater in the meantime.

    yeah I would get the Durobumps like Zane mentioned. You shouldn't have issues with the stock bumps but the stock bumps are hard AF. The Duros are way better.

    Man I did something that really tweaked my knee at the gym the other day. Sharp pain right behind the lower part of my kneecap when I go to stand up or make a sudden leg movement after being still for a bit. Once I'm up and walking though it's gone. Got a hockey game tonight too, might have to phone this one in.

    fuck this getting old shit lol

    So the gym and going for a run are two types of physical activity that led to injury.

    running...I don't run unless I'm being chased

    even then I have to weigh the benefit of running versus whatever might happen if I don't

    I have a feeling this is hockey related and I just put it over the edge

    That next morning I felt like I’d been run over. Better than losing a finger tip though. So I’ll avoid the gym and keep running.

    It's for running strut spacers and not over compressing the shocks

    How so? You could run strut spacers and not fuck up your shocks any faster than stock... Granted you don't mess up the control arm which I think is unlikely

    What do you think is going to happen? The control arm sees the same downward pressure at the same spot

    Maybe if you hit hard enough it might cock sideways and snap the extension I guess since it's at a greater angle... If you're worried that badly just weld it
