    Changed out the oxygen sensor and fuel/air sensor. Was going to change out the fuel filter, but the rear flange nut is stuck, didn't want to round it off. Going to go pick up a set of flange nut wrenches at Harbor Freight and give it a try again next week. Sorry, I'm really bad about taking pictures.

    Not today, but a couple weeks ago. Installed some autopal e code head lamps. What a difference. The beam is nice as well as the cutoff. From what I understand these are pretty much just cheaper Hellas. So much better than my old Pilot headlamps. This pic is before I tweaked them some.

    I don't have any place or equipment to just swap a cab so I figure gungy cheap truck and swap all my running gear and interior is just as good. It is a worn out 3rz and auto 4x4. So I'll be swapping in my manual because automatic four cyl is unacceptable. But other than that, it's the same color as Frank was.....

    I'll post once I've gotten it. The guy is super limited on time to show it, I told him chances are as long as the frame is solid and the body isn't leaking I'll buy it.

    Just burns too much oil and is generally worn out, still drives and runs fine. I'll be putting my engine, transmission and tcase in because I am not a patient enough person to drive an auto 4cyl. It's a Craig's find.

    !999 Tacoma that the Frame has more rust that Metal is the starting point.
    Frame out of a 2000 that was rolled in 2000 only had 1800 miles on the donor.
    I will post pic's as this change happens.
    Hopefully I don't screw this up;

    Well...haven't driven mine since last Friday...been parked in the barn the whole time. But I was on vacation at Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri! Badass place! On my way back to CO. Only 9 hours left of driving after already driving for 3 1/2...:frusty:

    Those are just as/if not more expensive than corbeaus lol. Anything other than stock would be nice...

    Most are more expensive unfortunately but the comfort was better for me. Def not giving up reclining though.

    Went and put a trial camera up for the elk hunt. On the way done the trail I ran into some side by sides and 4 wheelers. They didn't look very happy to see me...

    Also stopped at the Yurt To check it out.
