Amazing resource

 

the mark would be clearly visible if it weren't coated in oil leak residue

 

Even the V6 FWD ones? Or that doesn't affect the amount of time it takes really?
Which timing belt job(Toyota) has been the worst that you've had to deal with so far?

 

92-94 camry 3.0l 3VZ_FE because the engine sits back at a 30 degree angle the rear is a pain to time. its a truck engine in a car..

 

Unless it's a Subaru Justy, it literally just says how to align the cam lobes and crank and just slip the belt on, no notches, no marks. It was a huge pain and the crank sprocket isn't keyed so... it slips if you don't tighten it down 100% to test if you've lined everything up

 

How to engineer cost savings

 

It was probably designed to be much like the car, disposable. A machine puts the engine together in the factory and then it never comes apart cause well why would it.

 

That sounds miserable

Ordered OME 906 rear coils for the 4R; not realizing I had a balance on my paypal account, and using military discount with free shipping, they came out damn cheap!

 

@Empty_Lord Did you find any Studebakers in your uncle's barn? This one has camping potential. I always thought the sliding roof was kind of cool.

 

Guy near me has 3 of those MR2 Spyders. Yellow, silver and blue.

 

You runner guys have options..

 

"I ain't nobody, dork. Right?"

 

Lol so many that I went back and forth through different threads because there are lift options from 2"-4"

It largely has to do with weight handling though and since I will be taking my time with armor, I figured the 906's will do well for awhile.

Like I told a few others, I may have an entire suspension setup waiting new in box before I get this damn thing. My co worker just replaced one of the seatbacks since he had purchased an entire leather kit to replace the worn factory stuff.

 

Uhhhhhhh...

@CS_AR

When do your parts arrive?

I remember that Dobinson IMS kit you linked awhile back.

 

Looks like an average day in High Point NC.

 

I'm sure I can come up with some later today
