Oahu Members Thread

Nice find. Don't think I need one either but it's nice to see it done up in aluminum for the Hawaii crowd who deals with salt air constantly.

 

It will be powder coated as well. Should last forever.

 

Double dose of goodness right there!

 

so i checked my leaf springs today.... found this...



anyone else bring theirs in yet? I just emailed them(mapunapuna) to see what they plan on doing. If they replace it, I hope the truck will still be under its recall program since they'll most likely end up using the crappy oem leaf springs to replace. I know that there isn't a remedy yet.

 

If servco not going to replace it I got a set OEM $100

 

parked next to a taco w/ pelfrey front plate and AP rear wraparounds when I went to the gym this morning, had a TW oahu sticker on the back and SDHQ stickers on ammo cans in the bed

nice truck!

 

Not sure how far back the TSB goes but you should definitely look that up.

 

Was it a silver color truck?

 

yeah
and Icons IIRC. didn't look too good at the susp

 

ill let u know. thanks

 

That's jimbo

 

I thought he had a black truck?

 

That's my truck, think there's another jimbo with the black taco. Nice brz though, sorry for my crappy parking lol. Parking lot was empty when i got there.

 

Any of you guys use LPS 3? And if you do....where do you get it on the island?

 

Try check city mill or McGuire bearing.

 

Anyone watching Expedition Overland (South America)?? Realized other than the playing in the sand, they haven't really needed to use 4wd in the 1st 5 episodes.

 

I use it and last time I bought it was from ace hardware I think not sure if they still carry it thou I'll check my shelf if I still got any left. Me and my dad usually by a case of everything lol

 

lol thanks

spotted the pelfrey bumper right away, but we haven't met I wasnt sure exactly who's truck it was lol

nice truck!

 

Yeah, nothing too serious yet. Maybe they can't damage the 4runners too much and make them look bad? I do like that bumper to slider bar on the tacoma.

thanks, you need to bring the your taco over too.

 

So I spoke to some lady in service department. Inspection can't be done till sept 5th. Kinda far out. I also asked if it was still going to be under the recall since it's still going to be replaced with crappy oem ones that are still prone to cracking. She said no but I would have to PAY OUT OF POCKET since there is no solution to the recall.

I looked at the recall letter and found this...

Q2a: What if I experience the condition before the remedy is available?

A2a: If you experience the condition or warnings described above, please contact your local authorized Toyota dealer for diagnosis and repair. If the condition is related to this Safety Recall, the repair will be performed at No Charge to you.



I was pretty upset When she told me this. I'm going to call Waipahu tomorrow to see that they say.
