Colorado B.S. Thread

Couple more weeks and I'll be home!

 

Yeah I guess I just want something more low profile than that

 

Yeah thanks man I'm waiting to see what my oil sample comes back and says and yes the rod is fubard too there was only a couple little pieces of the rod bearing left it put a good grove in the crank and started chewing into the rod and I thought the fj had the same motor idk why they wouldn't have that issue? And I can only find maybe a handful of people that have had the same issue. The cause is still unknown

 

Awesome!

 

That sucks! Where do you send oil for oil samples? The Fj and Tacoma motors are the same but small suff was different per model in years before 05 I know for sure but assume they had similar stuff change to the current model. For example a 3rz motor was available in a 4runner2wd and 4wd,Tacoma 4wd the 2wd was a 2rz but is the same motor just a 2.4 rather the. 2.7. T100 2wd had the 3rz too. So when I did my swap to get the pan and steering to work together I had to use the T1002wd 3rz pan and sump and dipstick. It's the only one that fit correctly out of all of them. I know a camery in some years had a similar motor but the pan is way different. Xrunners have a shorter pan and pickup tube and they had a tundra but I'm not sure about the pans.

 

This is interesting. I wonder how well it works.

Yeah Dev with his bumper though it is not hidden like on an ARB. His will stick out entirely in the front of it. Noah you could always take the rollers off and paint the frame black. It will make it look less noticeable.

Sweet! Looking forward to seeing bro.

 

Whats up fellas. I'm new around here..live in the springs. hopefully moving to denver, city park area soon.

this is muh truck. thought i'd say whats up!

That board a never summer?

 

Oh yeah. its nasty!

 

I forgot he has a different type of bumper.

 

Welcome, truck looks good. I like those wheels! What tires you running?

 

Why did you say to stay away from an aluminum one again?

 

Your steel cable will own it.

 

Cat here in loveland off of crossroads does it and there is a few other places around that do it they just go in and tell u what's in ur oil say steel brass aluminum the thing that bugs me is the color of the oil its got a metallic look to it and it almost acts like there is 3 different weights of oil in it so idk what the deal is with that but they will let me know and then hopefully they won't say there is water or antifreeze in it so I no at least my heads are good the oil dont have a milky color to it but I heard the new pink shit dont turn the oil that color so idk its all a big waiting game I just want my truck back up and running whats the deal of the century u will give me on your motor? I can get a new crate motor from Toyota for 3700
