    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I'm not a fan of the OEM refills, they're eh at best, but pretty good in snow and ice

    I spent way too much money on my last set of windshield wipers and they were still shit. I hate windshield wipers so much.

    This time I'm gonna claybar, wash and wax the windshield but I've had great luck with Trico Neoform wipers, they're just expensive....

    Did you know Trico invented windshield wipers as we know them

    Would a valve adjustment be necessary if it was done less than 40k miles ago?

    Can't hurt if you're talking about the 22RE, it's easy, just need the wrenches, patience, and a feeler gauge set

    I dont need that funny looking tool? Looks like a normal box wrench and screwdriver would work fine. Screenshot_20190915-150337.jpg

    Yeah, a normal wrench and the driver work fine. That just makes it easier to hold things with one hand and check lash with the other and then hold it all cause locking the adjuster also adjusts it haha. It's a balancing act. Much easier on toyotas than hondas though, hondas require the tool or another set of skilled hands

    I wanna say they should all be still pretty tight from the last time the HG was done. I will have help if needed.

    Im really hoping all the marks are there on the dizzy/cam gear from the last job. If they are it should make this pretty easy imo.

    Whoa, this is cool. Never thought of clear panels, really like that, it works well on the silver base color too.

    Like the real life equivalent, I see the model also has problems with the lower ball joints.
