San Diego BS Thread.

still looking for some help if anyone knows anyone

 

Stephanie, Give Jason a call or text at (760)560-7779. He might be able to help you. Working on Tacomas is his thing.

 

Yeah, go see Jason. Best friend a truck owner can have. Not too far away even.

 

Thanks guys !!! Appreciate it

 

I need someone who's willing to come down and help. Everyone is kind of just suggesting things and I've tried it all

 

2005? Say goodbye to your HG

 

I might be able to swing by that way this weekend

 

So it’s not driveable?
Reviewing the photos, looks like no. And I assume no tow rig.

 

I would really appreciate it, I lm more than willing to shoot you some cash and feed you haha.

 

Definitely not haha it all taken apart

 

Good luck. I live in Poway but wont be back for a couple of weeks. I do not know if jason does mobile repairs out of vista but yeah he is a great mechanic

 

I don't understand you people who don't have 3 trucks, how can you survive?

I need 1 to be broken / in progress for repairs, 2 for schlepping people around and 3 for hauling stuff or loaning out. Maybe I need 4 really, now that I think about it, a TRX perhaps?

 

2 trucks and a car.

 

I was going to suggest Jason but doesn't seem she can drive it anywhere, needs someone to go to her

 

So as I was saying yesterday that if you can loosen that rear nut on the line it should be loose enough to allow enough movement with some pressure to get that tip back into its orifice, putting a small bit of lubricant can make it easier.

And I see you have a crow's foot you are trying to use for that rear nut you said the sensor is blocking, it looks to me like you can use a normal open end wrench, not that crowsfoot to get that nut loose so you can wiggle them back into place.

If you try an open end wrench there I'm pretty certain it will work fine, looks like there is plenty of space from the pictures posted.

I'm happy to help but don't do mobile work unfortunately, but from the looks of it I think you can probably get it done using the tips posted above hopefully.

Edit: Also you can at least unplug that rearmost sensor and without the plug in place you will have even more space to get to that nut with a 17mm.

 

Its the force I didn't have. Haha
Mike actually came out and helped with that line. So now I'm putting everything back so hopefully that fixed that. But I definitely have some more questions about my truck that I hope you don't mind that I ask you. Appreciate everyone's help. You guys are awesome
@BrownMike thank you for helping me out and taking time out of your day You're awesome!

 

Good job @Smcsherry & @BrownMike!

 

Could anyone suggest a metal fabrication shop that might be able to help me with installing these Lexus seats in my 1st gen.

 

Sadly it's still leaking, so hope it's just the line now that needs to be replaced
