    Sounds like they’re right and to keep driving for another 1000mi home would be a smooth brain idea?

    if it's that bad you might not have to drive all 1000 mi. the tow bill might get out of hand tho

    when at my Home PC, I can put up some screenshots of my own design for the fuel tank, trying to snug it as close to the axle as possible...

    I have found that a decent amount of rear weight generally makes the truck smoother if a bit more boaty, significantly less easy to work with lift-off oversteer, and really needs trail braking to rotate well

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I'll definitely have enough weight to contend with as is. I'll put it on the corner scales again next time I'm at my buddy's shop.

    Bought a new driveline. Mine was getting bad since putting the lift back on. $580 for a whole new unit seems like it's pretty cheap? I had my old one quoted at $950 just to rebuild it :notsure:

    Requested a new studio desktop computer to run Lightroom on since our new Canon camera's RAW files aren't compatible with the 5 year old OSX on my current studio Mac. I just use it to run files through a quick edit/renaming workflow in LR before exporting them to the company servers where I Photoshop them on my other office desktop.

    Last time I requested a new desktop Mac it took damn near 3 years to get it, kept getting the runaround on why it had to wait. So I wasn't holding my breath this time but was surprised today when they told me it's being configured this morning.

    But I got lucky because apparently the CFO told IT order it for it for his daughter and then she decided she didn't want/need it, so now it's coming to me...

    I guess that's one way to work around the budget

    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    @Ozark_RegCab -- Just received a quote from a reputable transmission rebuilder in the area of $4,000 to $4,200 for the Civic transmission with a 3 year warranty. I think we'll keep the Civic in the family a few more years. It only has 121,000 miles. if the LC wasn't so economical to drive (not kidding), I might take it as a daily.
