    yeah they don't do well in cold weather. also when they look over the clearing from the top of the building and see all the giraffes and hear those distant howls, the subtitles go *giraffes vocalizing* ... last I checked giraffes don't make sounds unless that's changed since I learned that at the zoo as kid. But that could've just been someone's mistake doing the subtitles

    Embrace the shitbox, the moment you give it an ounce of love the CVT will throw that metal band out the hood.

    there's a handful of censored sites, there's another "rival" 3rd gen Tacoma forum I forget the name of that's censored on here too, it's kind of funny cause all the blocked ones are like a little gang of kids vs this website which is like a huge metropolitan city in comparison. But thems the rules

    this forum has been around for so long that basically any other Tacoma-themed forum that pops up in the last 5+ years was more than likely started out of spite by someone banned or otherwise spurned from this one lol

    You're right. I'll just keep slapping cheap oil in it

    Ehh pretty much.

    I'm gonna go to Ace hardware later for some of the more generic hardware.
    Apparently only 4 exist in the US for the front diff crossmember mounting bolt now? But it just looks like a fancy M12x1.5 nut

    it's funny reading some of them and seeing how much they have to bring up that they're better than the TW crew and all that

    was gonna say I have my old diff mounting bolts from when I got my (useless) diff drop. @treyus30 if I can find them in my wreck of a storage closet you can have them

    I did think about it, but it's only 25ish bucks for those from toyota vs 65 from sonoran steel

    @Speedytech7 The one in red is the one I was talking about.
    But the two in blue are discontinued. Do I actually need them though?

    I'll dig around for them after work, I think I tossed them in my spare bolts bag I take on wheeling trips but those things take up a lot of room. You're talking about those two big/long ass bolts that hold it to the cross member right?
