    That's because you went to Big Bear without me. If I had been we would've been hauling ;)
    Strange I didn't have to do that. My first post was a brand new thread
    I HATE YOU!!! I KNOW WHERE ALL OF THOSE SPOTS ARE ESPECIALLY THAT MUD PUDDLE! NEVER AGAIN!!! :rant:
    Do a manual swap like COB on T4R did. That'll be a fun project

    Just for that I'm going to purposely take you through a puddle that I know you can't make it through and then NOT tow you out :luvya:

    Been looking for a snorkel since that trip...
    Got diff breathers taken care of and I had no water intrusion in the cab so I know seals are good but the snorkel I found is from Australia and they want more than the price of it just for shipping...
    WTF $75 USD for the part and $85 USD for shipping.

    Finding an manual ECU is expensive.

    I have considered it. Not sure if I can justify 2 3rd Gens.

    That's why you get a sweet 2nd gen ;)
    That's what happens when you go through another man's puddles!

    What I was told is it was bigger than normal from the rains. In the video water ends up over my hood and then once I was in completely it was up to the headlights like the other pic. Didn't get bogged down though like some of the tacos. Froadin gods just like runners better I guess lol

    You're lucky then. The second gen intake is right behind the driver headlight. And that does look deeper than normal. Where is this video?

    I guess. I saw a write up from a dude that made his own with some 3-4" exhaust pipe though.
    Got me thinking I could be a cheap ass and build my own

Not pictured is the 2005 Taco with 2" lift, the stock 92 runner 4x4 not running still deciding what to do with it, the 89 toyota 4x4 custum built prerunner, and recently lost our pride and joy, the truck that started it all, our 99 trd Taco *tear*
