    Hey there! Google lead me here. Seems like a lot of Tundra knowledge to sift through. I have a 2000 Tundra 2WD with the 4.7 It's a pretty nice with only 140,000 on the odo. just looking for maintenance and upgrade related info.

    Btw, the screen name came from a different forum back in the early 2000s and I don't want to try to remember a new one. I know a lot of general bs about ropes and rigging so I guess it fits.

    TIA,
    Tom in N FL

    Welcome from Obx Tom, you know the saying.....You can't tie a knot....tie a lot:D. I find if you know at least these 4 knots you can rig anything. Bowline, Clove Hitch , Square, and your simple half hitch. What kinda rigging you doing?

    I guess I need to some take pics of the truck!

    I worked in the oil fields back in the early 90s and started learning about rigging and tying knots. Now I just play with paracord and splice a few 2" braided rope every now and then.

    No, I haven't done any paracord wrapping on the truck yet. I need to spend time fixing the rattles and squeaks first!
