    indeed.


    see the 01 is my prized posetion and im doing it to perfection ( in my eyes). the 98 taco will be swap frame and enjoy, the red taco will be swap frame and slowly build it up a bit.
    the FJ will be toss something together i can play in...



    YES i have issues. and the 01 is the big hold up.. once i get the rest of the shit back from the trans shop and what not and the frames offically "complete" the bodys coming home and all the interior and exterior is getting stripped and its getting sent to the body shop. once thats done the new frame will be married to the body and i can reassemble the beast and finally be "done"


    until i want more power... but thats down the line.

    I've always heard the magic numbers are 0, 0, and 2.4. The 99 does have spacers (came with truck) on factory coilovers so that sacrifices some adjustment. They fixed the extreme positive camber I had but wouldn't show me what the truck came in with... which the last sheet they gave me included. Not bad considering the alignment was in April. Most places would've made me pay again.

    The techs were also all staring at me because I probably brought in the biggest shitbox of the week.

    Freezer and compressor fan weren’t spinning. Compressor won’t kick on. Adjusted temp knob a bunch. Unplugged relay and tested ohms at compressor which seemed fine. Relay isn’t clicking/making noise. Compressor is silent and warm but doesn’t feel overheated. Just moved everything into a mini fridge and cooler.

    Now I need a washing machine and fridge I’m thinking. Whoever said all their appliances were failing spread their bad luck lol.

    The guy who built that DeLorean was selling a real used instrument cluster on Craigslist. Almost bought it.
