Shop Time w/T.W. Friends. Torque wrench on spark plugs, we need answers so cast your vote now

That’s a sweet ride. I’ve been watching this Sarah-n-Tuned series on YouTube where she is transplanting the 2UZ from her dads old 1st gen tundra into a ‘74 Celica and giving it rally upgrades. It would be fun to have a project like that and maybe an Fj45 pickup one day.

 

just not the same !

 

Yikes! Your post is so graphic, it transfers the pain....

 

X2, no one knows how he is doing?

 

Good Morning Gents.

 

Morning

 

Happy Sunday Wrenchmen

 

Morning all
Hope you all have a great day

 

Doing 60K service over this weekend, I’m done under the truck and down to just spark plugs left… wish me luck.

 

Good morning everyone, be safe and have a great/blessed day.

 

I’ve had this happen multiple times on my right knee. It all started in middle school playing battle ball, had a 175lb kid fall on me. I may have weighed 100lb? The best way to get it back in place is to straighten your leg. But when it pops back, you feel like

 

If feel like just reading this…

Knee talk always makes me queasy. The first time I experienced real pain was when I was walking to kindergarten. 6 yo. I eventually got diagnosed with Osgood Shlatter’s disease in my right knee. Then the first meniscus tear in my teens, then the other in my 20s..

Not a complaint and I don’t want to put the kabosh on the discussion. I’m grateful to have the health I have now




Good afternoon everyone

Had some snow overnight but it’s mostly melted . The best kind of Spring storm.

 

Hi everyone, ol' Toe here. I haven't been on for awhile. Today looking at different items for my daughter's new Tacoma. About 99% of anything Tacoma search leads one to Tacoma World.
Thought I better stop into the shop and say hello since I was in the neighborhood
Hope everyone is doing good.
Daughter just went for the base model SR 4x4 double cab. She just put $10k down so she's got money for upgrades in pocket
Taxes were a bit of shock to her

Black...get dirty sitting in the garage but her choice

 

A black SR. You know I approve.

 

Congrats to her!!

 

Thanks guys! I'm so proud of her. She just turn 21 and college degree, her start pay almost as much as what I make. She's doing very well in training too. She has the potential to go far.
I'm going to give her the TRD wheels I had originally bought for my truck. She wants to pay me for them but I said no, just know how proud I am of you and love you.
Like wheels on mom's truck. I paid little over 1k for them, now they're $2,600 used on fleabay, 200 for a dang center cap!

 

Well deserved rewards. Congratulation!

 

Good to see you around

Sounds like the daughter has a good handle on life, good job Dad!

I was coveting the TRD beadlocks when I got the truck, as usual I whimped out on spending the $$.

 

55 and sunny here today ( @Fargo Taco )

I walked 3-1/2 miles -- my feet & knees are saying 2 miles might have been smarter...

I'll just sit here in the sauna -- my living room that is, 87 degrees here by the chair.
There are some shortcomings to antique heating systems, cold nights and warm days confuse the stove - way too much heat.

For me that is -- Mrs Green and the cats are quite comfortable...
