What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Oh okay. Welcome. I have to use my impact wrench on that silver disk with the 3/8" hole to get it loose, then Its pretty easy to then get the tool on the housing to loosen it somewhat easily. That housing should only be torqued to about 15 ft/lbs if i remember correctly.

 

I had that experience on my RAV4. Didn't think I'd ever get the tool off the housing. I have 2-3 of the tools. Tried 2 of them...

 

How do you like NH ? Will it be a cold winter this year?

 

You try going in the wrong direction? Give it a little wiggle.

 

I've lived in NH my whole adult life. Usually more deer around here than people but that's changing.

I bought an awesome snow removal machine so there probably won't be much snow. Cold is relative....

 

Didn't try wrong direction.

 

Like the movie ... "Lucky Numbers" (John Travolta).

 

Sometimes you need to break a "seal" of sorts on bolts or other screwed-in things.

 

I like that! Looks good

 

If there is a concern, blackstone is a pretty cheap piece of mind. I think it’s under $40 for a full oil analysis. I thought my oil smelled very rich of gas and sent a sample out.

 

I would prefer the deer. I hope the snow machine lives up to your expectations, if not, look into the link below.

the trd oem is a cool customer or the $16 knock off

 

A cold engine will help too, parts won’t be swollen. Like sitting over night cold

 

$16.88.. and drawer liner in the cubby to kill vibration noises.

 

manual?
i had an 8 ball on my 5.0

 

I think 18 was the last of the manuals. Wasn’t a fan of that oem sr rubber knob. It’s an auto. 8 balls are $16.79. You still have that opportunity. Gives the interior a little flavor. Sr’s are pretty basic.

 

Yes i want it for power only, where can i buy a a 3tpam?

 

An 8 ball goes for a lot more than $17 around here.

 

Expedition Essentials.

 

That's pretty cool! I just bought the switch pro with the sdhq mount. Getting it installed next week!
