North Carolina Tacomas?!

No high clearance for now. Will be later on I'm sure.

 

I may be interested in one depending on the price... And I see your in southport so picking one up from you won't be a problem haha

 

That is absolutely perfect.. I have a friend who is getting married that weekend and I planned on coming back for that anyway so its a two-fer-one

 

ha,ha whats up dude post a picture of your ride, i had a guy with a satoshi grill flash me the other day. i swear since i got my speedway blue a bunch popped up in town.

 

sweet!

 

So I went to the dealership to get her inspected, finally after waiting forever they say they're done and I go to the desk. The guy says they finished but noticed I need new valve cover gaskets since they are leaking oil. He goes "If you have time we can get it in there today."

Then he gets to the estimate of what that would cost.....over $500

In my head I was like pfft F that. So I need to plan on doing that myself sometime this summer.

 

I've done it on cars before it's not that hard, is yours a v6?

 

Yeah its a V6, it shouldn't be hard, just very time consuming.

I have to take off the intake plenums, remove vacuum tubes and a bunch of other stuff to get down there. I will probably replace my plugs while I am at it.

 

It's your truck, do what you want?

Damn that looks amazing. Corners like that take a lot. Props!

It's pretty easy, did it last year

 

I take colored tape and put red on the tube and where it goes, blue to blue Ect. So I never mix them up when reinstalling them

 

Thanks man. It helps that work is slow and I get to work on my own junk.

 

This is what I want. How it work with a hitch.

 

Gonna do a hidden hitch cutout in the center of the bumper. It will be covered with the license plate on a sprung hinge with rubber bump stops.

 

Yeah, I just hate the puzzle of taking everything off. But hey, it gives me a reason to be under the hood this summer.

+1 for the great idea! I like that kind of thinking.

 

It's really not that bad. Different length bolts are the hardest part. Plug wires are easy since they are all pairs of 2, just write down the cylinders that go together.

 

Yeah man I know I can handle it. I'll probably just the different bolts in separate bins and label a piece of tape.

Back when I rebuilt (tried to at least) my Kawasaki I used masking tape and labeled the individual bolts that were specific

 

Sha-wing

 

You get excited over the strangest things....
