    Soon...
    :( So while driving my speedometer started fluctuating then it went all the way over to the right then finally went back to zero. Now it doesn't work at all, except for the occasional fluctuation every now and then. Haven't checked anything yet.

    Your Speedo is working perfect (because it's a Toyota...) I think your truck is stuck in a space/time warp... The feeling of moving or not moving is all just realative. Soon it will spread outward from your truck and engulf the whole planet and destroy it! Thank you very much for causing the end of the world... And I just thought they were money pits... Shows how much I know!

    Once, a very long time ago, on Eubank around Menaul, I saw an old Rambler sedan with an unusual hood ornament. The owner had strapped a rather large industrial-type Mixmaster kitchen mixer to the front of his-or-her hood, using bungee cords & duct tape. The appliance was almost 2 feet tall; it was an impressive hood ornament.

    Damn kids on here probably have no idea what a "Rambler" is/was. :rolleyes:

    I could see him installing a hedge trimmer on his perdy truck so he does not get any pinstripes on it... I don't think I have ever see any dirt on his truck.

    Silas has already offered but Scott has a kick-ass scroll saw that makes cutting metal go like buttah. Just waiting for the next free weekend he has to go get it done. Thanks for offering though.

    I am, however, installing the 1/2" top plate spacers this weekend and might need some help.

    Update: So when I was going to change out my front transfer case seal, I unplugged the speedo just to find out the gear oil was coming from the shifter seal :(. So when I put everything back I guess I didn't fully seat the plug for the speedo :anonymous::anonymous::anonymous:

    I hate math. :(

    I'm pretty good at arithmetic, though.
