    Buy some Cilantro (or Parsley) and chop it up with garlic (and onion) and mix it with Olive Oil. Throw it in the bag with the meat (salt and peppered) and good to go!:yes:

    Today was miserable, not gonnie lie. It was Florida level humid. I've not sweat that much in years.

    What sweat? All I saw was a little pit dampness.o_O

    You may need to go wipe off your new bumper behind the low-pro hoop. When I was holding it up for you I was dripping a little here or there.

    Sweating like a whore in church. :rofl:

    Hoping to fix the bumper issues tomorrow.

    May even make a Live, non-hyperlasped video for @jImmegart to help him with his swap eventually.

    Gotta get some small pieces for the chain brake and obviously the new starter cover. But she looks beautifulinside the gas tank and the carb... the piston looks wonderful through the intake and exhaust side. Should be a great runner

    Now that the whole gang is here, let me ask a few questions about my upcoming LCA/LBJ/UPB work.

    Before I place my TOY order for OEM LCA, are there any other contenders I should consider?

    I know the ball joints should be TOY, as well as hardware.

    I know there are "special tools" any recommendations?

    I have Napa lower control arms.. no complaints yet. Way cheaper than Toyota.


    ONLY Toyota for lower ball joints. Get 8 new bolts too.

    Guys, I told Noah we had to remove this brace. I start fumbling with my pathetic hand tools. Wasn't accomplishing anything.

    Noah just kinda shook his head and chuckled before he pulled this impact wrench out of nowhere. He has the nuts off in seconds. It was the most masculine thing I've ever seen. It should be a Milwaukee tool commercial.

    It was at that moment I knew who was going to be leading the installation of the bumper.

    I was curious so I looked they called for a 20:1 mix. That puppy is going to smoke up the neighborhood but you won't have to work about mosquitos :D

    You should be able to drop to a 40:1 with some synthetic oil mix though

    I'll investigate. Cost savings mode here needs to happen real soon. Being able to drive my rig. Worth it.

    Can confirm. Olive drab green.
    :thumbsup:
    Glad I was able to help you. Power tools are the future. That doesn't mean you should do away with your hand tools though. Can't get an impact in on those two 17 mm bolts, or those four 14mm nuts on the threaded studs.

    It was good practice for me. I swear, I love your bumper. The next time I hit a deer after I have your old one installed I will look into an aftermarket deer killer for sure. Maybe one with the High hoop.;)

    Sorry @Professional Hand Model. I won't ruin my truck over a deer.

    By the way, I'm saving this particular post for "posterity."

    I believe 40:1 with synthetic is what people who run em recommend these days

    I sent a link to this video to mom. She enjoyed the "fat-Back Technique" also.:rofl:

    That bumper is sweet. Never had a chance to put hands on a real aftermarket bumper before. Good learning time for me, and @FirstGenVol

    Its gonna have to come off again for your new-Fangled winch... Right?

    After having to clean my windshield several times today because the roads were wet enough to carry dirt up off tires in front me...
    I kinda got fed up with my crummy 4 stream windshield washer jets.

    Did some perusing...
    https://www.amazon.com/Windshield-N...07PBXY3YC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

    I read some reviews for that product. Most said that it did not fit our tundra due to the 90 degree bend fitting instead of straight shank.
    I happen to have some fish tank air hose laying around, and some 90 degree elbows.

    Last little mod for a while because that frustrated me mucho.

    If that doesn't work, I've heard people put FJ Cruiser nozzles on FGTs to a nice spray pattern instead of a jet...

    Noah and I were actually discussing this yesterday when he was at my house. We both thought someone had previously mentioned FJ nozzles. I may do this swap as I hate the tiny stream that shoots out of mine.

    I have cooked this a few times and it is really good with the chimi. London broil is a cheaper cut of meat and can be tuff but follow the directions and you can feed at least 4 people. Make sure you have a really sharp knife and slice it as thin as you can, this eliminates the tuff issue.
