    It’s a manual, 4x4 sr5, with a 2.7. I love it .

    What a gorgeous truck! That's a really clean one, I'd hate to think how much somebody would pay for that right now. Welcome to the thread!

    Well, the better half is off white water rafting today so I got to play in the garage a bit. Got the coilovers moving again, so I picked the front end up about an inch, which dramatically helped my static camber. The dynamic on the other hand...0DBF0BB9-9CEA-4427-8538-DFFA73E36466.jpg

    I don't know how obvious it is in the photo, but it's +5.7 at full lock on the inside, and -2.6 on the outside. I think my only solution for this is to get extended ball joints or something of the like. I'm not too concerned about it though since I'm not racing all that seriously or often. Had to take the fatties off the front to go get them swapped around due to camber wear on the inside.

    The tires are directional, so I have to get them swapped wheel to wheel. Put the stock wheels on for now since I'm not driving it before the race this coming weekend. I also checked and greased all the balljoints, control arm bushings, and sway bar zircs.

    Looking at it down the side, it looks kinda like it's set up for drag racing with the fatties in the back. Too bad the muscle truck rake got taken out when I lifted it back up.

    Evenin' stockers!

    Had to go over the other mountain to meet someone to sell a spare weed-eater I had and decided to take the toll road home to stretch the truck's legs out a little bit. I have a toll pass so it's a little cheaper. I love the radar cruise control on my '21. It worked flawlessly, the transmission shifting up through the mountains not so much, but it's a 3rd gen... Figure I'll include a couple pics going in between the mountains...

    Good morning humans of the stock world.

    Fog and damp weather here but it's supposed to clear.
    Going to cut the grass once it dries out. After 4 inches of rain the last 3 days, it needs it. Have to take care of the garden as well as the weeds really took off.
    Iffin I get done, I'll take the Nova for a spin.

    Morning Bill. S mode doesn't help with cruise control. Seems to want to WOT on some of the steeper grades. I mean, I did have it set at 80 :laugh: I rarely travel the interstate/toll ways so it's not really too much of a big deal.
