    Just wanted to say "Hello" and make a brief introduction.
    Been a long time lurker. A huge Thank you for everyone that contributes their time and help to this site. This site has saved me a minium of $1000 in labor if I had taken to the dealer.
    History:
    Always been a Toyota fan. My first car in school was a 1980 Toyota Celica ST, 20R Engine...Tough as nails.
    Also had a Toyota Starlet (remember those?)
    Current:
    I purchased my current Toyota Tacoma Pre Runner TRD 3.4 V6 new in 2003. Currently has 124,000 miles and is completely stock. Have used Amsoil since purchased. Many of you would consider her a Garage Queen because she's never touched mud in her life. I'm super ocd about the truck. Yes, I admit I have a problem.

    Completed on Truck by myself (Thanks to this site and it's members)
    • Right and Left Valve Cover Gaskets Replaced
    • Right and Left Rear Cam Plugs replaced as well (source of seaping oil)
    • New Toyota OEM Spark Plug Wires/Plugs
    • Starter Rebuild Kit (Plunger/Contacts). Wasn't giving problems but more of a preventive maintenance.
    • Steering Rack Bushings replaced with polyurethane bushings (hardest/most aggravating job I've done on truck, but well worth it.) Corrected the sloppy steering.
    • Recently replaced the outer rods (Rubber was split) with the Moog Brand.
    • Jumper mod (cig/12volt plug in work with truck off
    • Thanks to CSJumper for the Plug n Play LED Map/Dome Lights
    • Lazy Seat Belt (not a complete fix, but helped)
    Future Maintenance:
    • Next couple of weeks will be replacing the original Bilstein shocks with probably the 5100's.
    • Carrier Bearing replacement at some point this year.
    Looking foward to your help/suggestions in the near future. *Will be posting pics as soon as we get a nice day. C
