New Mexico Owners BS Thread

Those look nice, Tom.


Strong-Like-Bull, too; you could probably pick the truck up with a crane using one.

 

Thanks, Pigger! Chris does damn fine work so I'll pass the kind words to him.

This is happening right now:



A Slodgetto sighting has occurred as well.

 

And the full pictorial...

 

Looks great Tom!

 

That color looks good!

 

Thanks guys! Was a bit worried the FJ wasn't what I wanted but it is starting to come together nicely now. Just need to figure out what to do about this dildo of a shift knob it has.

 

Anyone in ABQ with a 16 want to help a fabricator out with access to your truck?

Want to design some Fog light replacements to mount LED pods. May require modification to your truck. But in return I will give you free mounts and pods at cost!

 

I got an FJC if you're looking for one of those.

 

oh, and I know where Grassburger is.

 

Come on guys, who wants some mounts! Who has a 16 and wants to help!

 

hey guys. come on out to the general powercoating and steel lizard offroad party saturday from 5-9 at their shops!

be food and drinks and see what everyone is up to!

 

I guess I should pay attention. I didn't realize the thread moves on despite me..

 

time again to get my timing belt/chain replaced. anybody have any recommendations? or just go through american Toyota off alameda?

 

Larry H Miller @ Eubank & I-40 did the timing belt on my 3.4L at 95k miles. No issues with it or the work done when I sold it at 145k miles.

 

Went up to Forest Rd 333 to take some pictures for Vin @ SCS Wheels. Nothing super spectacular but thought I'd share. The FJ is really coming together.

 

had mine done at 60k miles (right when i bought it) at 120k now and dont wanna risk it any longer. their pricing good/turn around time reasonable?

 

I don't have the paperwork anymore but I think they quoted my $500 for labor and there were parts on top of that. They got it done same day. Dropped it off first thing in the morning. Picked it up at the end of the workday, around 5pm. Think they called me around 2 or 3pm to let me know it was done. Labor prices are all by the book. Call them and tell them what you want done, they should be able to get you a quote on the phone or call you back in a bit with one.

I have no experience with American. Larry H Miller has always done things right for me. Even warrantied an A/C clutch because they misdiagnosed the problem and it burnt up right after install.

 

will do! thanks man. fj looks freaking killer with the ray 10s man. i really wanted to get those in the bronze but was too late.

 

Toyota recommends the timing belt every 90k for the 3.4L. I'm assuming that's what you have.

 

Tom, the FJ looks awesome.

The dealerships are pretty costly, and the job isn't too tough as a diy if you've got the tools and time. My buddy runs a small shop downtown and be can help, too. He'll be under the cost of the dealer and he's don't lots of work on lots of my vehicles. He and his partner are ase certified masters and work on lots of Toyota and Honda. His shop number is : 433-2448. Abq quality auto. Tell him tony sent ya, and he'll either punch you in the mouth, or give you a discount.
