15th Annual SoCal / TW Superstition Trip Jan 24 to Jan 26 2025

Bump

 

So I might not be able to bring the taco i might have killed an engine or it's a head gasket (low compression unconfirmed diagnosis at this time) . But I'll find a way to get out there. Let's start voting for a weekend in Jan yah?

 

Brother the thread was already updated for Jan 24th thru 26th

 

Forgive me great V8 one!!!

 

Brothers!
Just blew the 3.4l on the 4Runner!
Tacoma is still good… for now…

 

I've got a shit ton of tools for sale from clearing out my dad's estate this year. Come holler! Even if you're not at Super we can work out a TW express or shipping.

Oh temptation

 

Doesn’t look like any air hammers ?

 

Negative, keeping that

 

if its not a head gasket just send it then. My engine has been low compressions for years. 2.5 cylinders of unadulterated fury

 

I'm local and would definitely like to buy a few of these items. I'll holler at you in a PM.

 

lol it’s a whole lot more.
The video I sent you was a main crank plain bearing killing itself, in addition to the bucket-o-bolts sound from the driver cyl head.
That block is toast unless it’s rebuild from the crank up.

 

I feel like there's some tools here I should probably get, but I can't tell what a lot of them are

Well good thing you have the Tacoma with that super sweet new steering setup I got you lol

 

You should fix that

 

its fiiiine. More than enough power to pull a tundy

 

Trying to see if I can make this

 

If only there was a link to a page with descriptions and part numbers.

 

sir we've already established I can't read. The fever I had probably didn't help either

 

Going to do a quick test run with the taco this weekend in Ocotillo Wells. Just because it hasn't been on dirt since last years superstition. More just itching to try out the locker.

 

wish I could go. My clutch left the chat again, been almost exactly 3 years since that last happened. Not happy about it.

Mike you might know the answer to this. A guy I know that races KOH told me that running through whoops and washboards puts enough shock load through the clutch to possibly slip and wear it out faster. Any thoughts on this? I am running a close to stock pressure plate, nothing fancy so it sounds possible to me but never heard of this before
