Whoa, those are big tires for a HP 8” front end.

 

holy shit @Tour991 do my eyes deceive me or did the Kings finally win a game....8 or however many straight losses I was starting to get depressed

 

Once you find the donor the actual conversion should take you less than a weekend to do. It's a pretty simple process. It probably could be done in a day with some help.

 

I know, I was starting to feel like a sharks fan. At least Vegas is loosing too. Now we have to worry about Edmonton again.

 

Do any of you guys have experience using WordPress for website maintenance and development? I may need to help a buddy with a very small project.

 

Hmmm 4wd working great, but only the driver has feet heat.

 

I'd never know if I've had that issue. I can count on one hand how many times I've had a passenger in the truck.

 

My heat is pretty weak in my truck. AC is decent. Maybe I have a bad blend door actuator or something.

 

You don't have blend door actuators. You have cables and it's really easy to check if they're moving all the way

 

It was the 10 hour drive into frigid wind with the gf that finally brought it to my attention

 

Oh that’s good to know before I pulled my dash apart.

 

We know you wouldn't do that anyway

 

True.

 

We cleaned out my aunt’s garage and found out her late husband was gifted a case of wine every Christmas and neither of them drank, and that’s the story of how I ended up with 48 bottles of 2007 Pinot Noir haha.

 

Why this. You already have a great 4x4 that you aren't using properly.

 

Woot woot, that’d be 48 awesome nights in a row for me. Jk. Mostly.

 

If anyone's interested with the longer stud version that should fit with oem wheels / lug nuts (if you're like me and want something that will work with and without spacers).

The Toyota Matrix lug studs. For wheel spacers they probably work, but won't with OEM wheels / mag nuts. The shoulder is proud of the wheel mating surface 1/4" inch and OEM lug nuts basically touch it (they come within less than 1/8" from the mating surface)

Dorman 610-463



Then I found this thread: And tried looking at the 610-407. Based on the measurements it looks like it should fit OEM wheels / lug nuts.

All measurements were made properly (had to use one hand while photographing)

Been working on getting them with some manual hub spindles. @Wulf were you able to install the extended studs while the hubs were in the spindle?

 

Woah woah woah, what's with the judgement? I thought this was a judge free zone! Can a man not have curiosities?
