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

Pitman arm puller and a breaker bar.

 

Purse on the ground?

 

Got a lead on some doors for my truck. Guy is close by and has a small Tundra graveyard. Will get some pics.

 

Go rent this tool from autozone. The more seasoned the better so it slips on.


OEMTOOLS 7/8in Fork Opening Ball Joint Separator

 

Which truck had the honors of the yank?

 

I thought the rock was gonna be bigger, but the tundra yanked it out in 4lo without even feeling it.

 

Parts buying has begun!

Just ordered left and right lower ball joints from Orisman, Toyota of Richmond. Got two extra bolts in case I lose two so 10 in all.

Called the shop to make double sure I had the right parts numbers. Clerk confirmed I had everything correct.

May buy a set of front end pullers today if I can get a good deal.

 

I bought this ball joint tool and it worked great on my tie rods. I haven't used it on my LBJs yet.

In the words of the almighty D-R-E, "The muthafuckin' saga continues..."

Finally got off my ass and primered up the Waltrip grille. Tried a new product. Super easy to work with, but damn does their fanned tip dump paint, and I learned the hard way you gotta be careful when it gets below half the can, huge blowout risk, no control. But damn it lays a smooth coat.

Anyway, I'm gonna let this cure up for 3-4 days, then knock down the one run in the part, thanks to aforementioned blowout. Product, then pics on coats 2 and 4. More later when it gets sanded and topcoated.

No @shifty`, I'm not getting a new door handle.

 

But that fuel door sure is nice...
How's the magnet holding up?

 

Works like a champ!

 

There used to be a very large all-Toyota junkyard in Colorado. A guy on Yotatech and probably some other forums ran their business through the forums. Would ship anywhere in the US. I got a lot random interior and exterior parts for my 83 pickup that would have been impossible to find otherwise. And they didn't price gouge on pulling/shipping like car-part.com does.

 

Ironman was a little thirsty on Saturday.



I went 265.7 miles on that tank for 10.72 mpg. I don't know how to do the calculation for bigger tires so I'm guessing 11.2 mpg.

My sister came to town in a toyota Camry and my daughter brought the tree out to my mom's house for a bit.





Ma said I have 30 days to come pick this up.

 

What is it you're picking up? Boiled egg cooker and bread maker?

When did Amarillo grow trees???

Mileage: the difference in tire circumference for you is 5.8%.
265.7mi + 5.8% = 281.1mi
281.1mi ÷ 24.772gal = 11.3mpg

Damn fine estimate.

 

You can borrow a front end puller kit from Advanced Auto to pop it out easily with a 19mm socket. They charge you $145 and refund you the money when you return it. Just make sure nothing is missing or broken when you borrow it.

 

You getting the old fridge? I got one like that at a garage sale for $150. Stole it.

 

Wait... That cabinet is a fridge? That's cool.

 

Technically it’s an Icebox. It does not have a refrigeration unit in it. It’s an Amish Yeti.

 

I wouldnt have guessed that either!

 

DUDE! Are we gonna be ice box bros? Nice.

 

Here is another!

 

Seems helpful

Adorable! But seriously, get a handle on your door, breau!

 

Damn. I’ve seen a lot of shit. I’ve never seen a refrigerator that looks like this? Nor a cabinet.

Looks like people use them for more of a shelf than anything.

 

90 E-Free is 3.89 a gallon as of today. I filled up from a 1/4 tank to full and it was 68.91. so your 70 isn't so bad

 

Reefer porn, I’ve been at attention all day!!!!
