What have you done to your 1st gen Tundra today?

That stinks. Think mine is leaking too. It's just gonna be leakin, cause it aint getting pulled. Gotta pull that dang 6.2 again this afternoon. Booooo

 

Yuck

Edit: The rear main has been leaking for years. I just figure it's time to do it and do it all right.

 

I mean I would hope you would, given your expertise and access to an automotive shop... I say you should've been done by now.

 

It's like the cobbler's kids who had no shoes. My shit goes on the back burner.

 

Do your kids have shoes?

 

The RAV4 started leaking oil again. It's been a few years since it leaked enough to hit the ground. Previously I got it to stop by using Mobile 1 high mileage. Supposedly it has a conditioner for the gaskets. It was the rear main back then so I assume that's where it is again. I can't tell.

It's fairly minor so I have no plans to fix it yet.

 

Just use the regular oil and add BG MOA at every oil change. No need to buy "high mileage" labeled oils.

 

Put a new air filter in and reset the oil change light, reset ecu while my rear diff drained, im probably at 7-800miles after gears were installed. Coming out mid stream it didn’t look to bad. Magnet had the very fine anti seize coating on it but no big chunks. I put Lucas Dino 80/90 in.
Pretty cool Rorschach type design in the oil pan when I was finished

 

I miss my mk6

 

Kinda reminds me of little swimmers. Almost a throwback to some classic RHCP.

You keep drawing me into this thread with your music related posts (even though I own a 2.5 gen). I had the Red Hots t-shirt with the band wearing only tube socks -- nothing on their feet.

 

The Abbey road crosswalk pic?

Music is the soundtrack to life.

 

The Descendents link was the other one.

ETA: I get your question now. It was not the Abbey Road pic on the t-shirt, but them standing side-by-side, dressed like the AR pic.

 

Yep. Going to see them in a week with Circle Jerks and Adolescents. We've got some heads on here with good taste in music. I may be a little more all-over-the-map than most, but ...

 

Can you repost the abbey road pic your talking about or is it just the normal one?

 

Eh, they're covered, I think it's safe. If not, hopefully the mods will be cool and just delete it.

 

I miss my MKiv VRT GLI and my MKvi JSW TDI lifted with an E LSD I instslled

 

For those having a drink tonight, poor one out for our fallen FishNinja, he got the ban-o-matic today. We're down a good one boys

 

I miss my little rocket too. Hope the dude I sold it to down in FL still has that little bastard, or at least sold it to someone who cares. I put a lot of sweat equity into that little shit.

​

 

Tell me about it the kid I sold it to, minus the turbo kit, hit it with his snow plow. He bought it from me because it was faster than his "unbeatable" Predator edition Monte Carlo. I dog walked him and never even got in full boost. From that day on he begged me to sell him that car. I ended up selling it but didnt tell him. He seen it for sale like 2 years later and brought me what I was asking in cash. He was pissed when he realized the turbo kit had been sold seperate lol. Fuck that kid.

 

New valve cover gaskets, had to make them a little flashy while I had them off.[/GALLERY]

Where'd you tie in?

 

Behind the dash, going up the pillar there is a wire loom that carries current to the done, map, cargo and stop lamp. The red with black stripe is the cargo light power and white with black stripe is the ground. That's where I tied into it. You can also find this same circuit behind the radio / HVAC bezel going into the bezel for the cargo light switch.

 

"Texan...... big surprise"

 

Thank you, I remember now, I added a tap at the break light on the silver truck they I never used, looking like I never will now lol

 

Pops is letting me keep the original silver truck tailgate for crackie, and he's using my POS tailgate that @NickB_01TRD got for me
