    I'm getting 320+ miles on my tanks, but then again it is a 4 banger :) And I don't have a hefty Road Warrior push bar/bumper on the front and all that (lol). Still, considering my 100 mile/day driving need, good to have my Camry back from my daughter so I can get back to 30 mpg instead of the 22 or so I have been getting with my Taco. Of course, I'll probably have to give her back the Camry as I work MORE on her CR-V. That thing is taking money away from my Taco! :goingcrazy:

    I had to pull the knuckle off my daughter's '97 CR-V last weekend to replace her LBJs. Replaced her upper control arms as well - they have the upper bj factory pressed into them. This appears to need you to remove the spindle/knuckle (whatever Toyo calls it on this model) to press the upper bj out. Which means getting that axle out, which means ?? Not sure with the manual hub what that will require. Always an adventure :)

    Nice! I haven't let my tank get all the way on E, but if I did I might stretch it to 400. Maybe.

    Ahh, yes. That's because the color blue is not a Toyota OEM color. Now had you installed Amber or Green LEDs, well, then no problem. I think they make a color conversion kit that will convert the blue back to a more yellow color.

    :D

    That blue looks NICE. I should do something similar in mine. Once you figure out the problem and let us know of course ;)
