With the TSB being specific to a production window I think it's (probably) rooted in a casting issue with the case for the transmission, and they updated production once the issue was identified. Did they say anything about the root cause? I would expect that the replacement or those produced...

If I'm going that deep into the front end for this install, I'd be looking to add a high-capacity all-aluminum radiator to go along with it. I was looking at the Sxth element FMIC and was planning to message you about the ETA on a radiator. If I can get both on one invoice, count me in. Silicone...

I've had that happen once or twice, roughly 4,500 mi on it now, and I let the clutch out to let things sync. I don't usually try for 1st unless at a stop. I've had good luck with Redline MT90 over the years, but I've moved to AMSOIL as I buy from them for another need, so it's easier with their...

I have all the parts except for the air filter, but I can confirm the TRD intake has a red boot that routes air from the fender into the airbox. The difference with the trail hunter intake is that the TRD doesn't connect to the high mount intake tubing, because it's not included. The TRD intake...

No, you need to activate on the $50 plan and then opt for the $10 plan after the first month. There are videos on youtube about it.

I appreciate your input. I'm leaning towards the wood grain, so I now wait for a sale of some kind to pick them up.

Thanks, it looks good in the photos, does it look as good in person?

With the various color options for the dash trim garnish, do you like what you have, and have you thought about swapping? I have dark silver trim, but it has a bronze tint to it, and I am thinking of swapping to a different color, either white to match the exterior of my truck or the brown fake...

I haven't installed it yet (waiting on the powerswitch), but I'm setting up a similar Starlink configuration. Starlink Mini SavageUTV mount Baja Racing voltage step up Powered via a Garmin PowerSwitch with the $10/mo plan it's tough to beat.

Nice video, you did a good job making the work less scary for people who might want to remove their badges. I removed mine last weekend and found the badges easier than the bedside stickers. Those required more chemicals to get off, but the result is worth it. Fishing line is also a good...

Here is an article describing how bearing coatings are required to endure the repetitive dry starts experienced as a feature of start/stop. Start/stop reduces emissions at scale, with the tradeoff of wear and tear and reduced life of the starter and engine friction surfaces. It also requires an...

I am, I can tell a bit of a difference just due to the added weight, but so far I wouldn't say it's ruined the ride at all. The ride still seems fine to me. I have a steel engine and trans skids, and aluminum rock rails.

I found your thread while looking up part numbers. 4 of the 5 items are available with a discount from autoparts.toyotaofdecatur.com It's the filter that isn't listed on their site, so I ordered those at parts.americantoyota.com Hope it's all legit and the lead time won't be too long.

Toyota has perfected the customer 3rd sales strategy. I had never bought from a dealer before, so when I went in asking to get on a list for what was available on the configurator, they told me I wanted a unicorn and laughed. At one point in my search, I found an allocation the day it was posted...
