    Walked into my favorite taqueria in Redwood City today. Every time I’m there I tell the chef how good his food is. Today I was 4th in line. He saw me in line and cane over to take my order. Then I sat down like a boss :D

    No idea yet. If it helps you identify, its a manual transmission with a 22RE. 4WD. I'll see if I can get that info tomorrow

    Possibly looking for a 4.88 as you can use them on 3rd gen 4runners. Cheap way to regear the rear and just have to figure out the front.

    I’ll look into it, thanks.

    Can’t help you there.

    Lots of 4:10s floating around though.

    I have an ifs v6 third member with the extra thick casting. 4:10s though.

    I swapped out my 4cylinder third into the axle housing for an extra 3”s of width and bigger brakes.

    Notice how it says should not shall.
    This meaning its not required only suggested.
    And if your bound by contract like all union workers are then it means nothing at all.
    Even state workers are not subject to ca labor laws as we are under a union contract.
    Is it bull shit ,yes, its a state law but the state dosnt follow it.
    But if its a rule in writing and you signed it then there is nothing anyone Can do.

    Sounds about right. For a 3.5 pipe. I used 3.5 for a 3"
    I worried the 4"would be to low to the bottom of the crowl area and suck in water if there is any in there.
    Why i went 3" thus giving just as much lip as the air intake to cab.
    But many have done it and no complaints.

    I gonna be using a 3.5 inch pipe. Now you have me wondering if I should use a 4 inch hole saw when I cut or use a 3.5 in hole saw and just trim it a little bigger after I add the molding around the hole.

    You will be fine.
    And depending on what your using for trim will depict how much you will need to over size the hole. 3.5 was a bit much for 3" pipe but it was what i had. And fuck it made it work. Silicone is your freind.
