I wrote that wrong, I meant Snow White drive thru, there in Seacliff.

I remember shoulder tappin' at the liquor store next to Safeway. Or, one of the two stores next to Snow White drive-in.

Dang, that's a really good looking wheel!

Congrats, good looking truck

Thanks, I do have a brake, just the HF 20 ton press w/ Swag brake attachment. But, of course, what I wanted to bend was too wide for the brake so I had to farm out the bends to a real shop.

Got the DIY aluminum skids fitted today, still some work to do.

Welded some trick tabs on the front bumper and mounted some lights. Also cut off the light bar that was welded to the bypass rack, installed WOG bed stiffener. Looking to move the spare tires to the rear so welded a tab on the bed stiffener.

Often times you'll be transiting with a group from point A to point B. If you have to remove a tire from a beadlock rim (it can prove more difficult to remove than you might imagine) and reinstall on another wheel, the whole group is sitting waiting for you. This can be really bad in the hot sun...

I've run this Icom 2730 in my Toyota for several yrs and have been very happy with it. The base is mounted under the driver seat and the head is separately mounted to the dash. https://www.gigaparts.com/icom-ic-2730a-dual-band-mobile-radio.html

Nothing exciting or difficult, just got around to relocating fuse 27. Anyone ever use the abandoned circuit to power an accessory?

I prefer the original that HF copied, Pro Eagle. They're just a phone call away if you need parts and Chuck seems like a good guy. They also make their own mount if you wanna take the jack along for a ride as well as other accessories like the Jack Lock that turns you jack into a jack stand...

I have 2 for my home. The first is a Challenger tankless boiler for radiant heat for the whole house as well as hot water. The second one is a small Rinnai for the MBA/Laundry rm because it's so far away from the boiler. Both are propane fired and have been trouble free for a decade. No, they're...

I contacted RCI when they had a sale recently. I don't need the front of their engine skid cause of the SVC bumper but they would only sell the complete package, said it caused too much trouble for their inventory??? So I ordered 1/4" 5052 aluminum sheet to make my own engine and transmission...

Well this happened last week along with oil pump gears. The extra ponies definitely increased smile/mile ratio.

From what I understand, you want buna. Viton is more for racing and is more prone to leaking on daily drivers. Something about Viton withstanding high heat better but not working as well as buna at lower temps. I've rebuilt several sets of King's and a set of ADS. I've always chosen Buna. But...

700 lb sounds right to me

Know the area well, it's amazingly beautiful. My wife and I recently looked at an investment property at the very end/top of Oak Ridge. Unimpeded views of the entire bay. I spent a lot of time mountain biking Nisene when I was younger.

You gotta be kidding. I grew up in Aptos, went to Aptos High

The 4wd/locker switch arrived today. Took less than 10 minutes to pull out the old one and install. Locked diff problem solved

I failed to check the rear sliding window when I purchased this truck in Dec. Sure enough it didn't work. Replaced the overhead console switch today and voila, it's working fine. $25 and half an hour to fix.

There's an electrical connector on the diff. I just unplugged it. When messing with the dash switch I could get the indicator light to turn off by pushing in on the switch and holding it but the diff didn't unlock. The diff did unlock when I hit +/-25 mph. I'm hoping that means the solenoid is...

Started out for the lumber yard today and discovered the rear end was locked with the switch in the off position. Disconnected it at the the diff and it unlocked. We'll see if a new switch fixes the issue.

That looks like a metric #### ton of fun

https://howeracing.com/search?type=product&q=cool%20tube* I put 2 of these Howe cool tubes together with a 180 degree AN fitting to create a power steering cooler.

I built a 2016 Tundra. In Tundra speak it's a long travel, pretty much the same travel #s and it's a mid travel in Raptor speak. The Tundra only has 2.25" wide leaf springs (WTF?) Upgrading to Jeff's custom 3" U420 pack is pretty essential and expensive. Guessing fewer than 10 trucks have made...
