This may not be the right spot to post this, but I figured here would get more attention. I am in SW WA and am having an issue with my 93 Dodge Cummins. I'm no diesel tech, and its starting to frustrate me to not have an available tow rig. Can anybody point me to a decent shop for these old...

So I managed to scrounge up some material from work that cost me zero doll hairs, now I'm second guessing myself on whether or not it is beefy enough. Building this hanger for my 88 4runner SAS project. Grabbed some 1/8 wall 1x3 for the cross bar piece, and some 3/16 wall 2.5x2.5 for the...

So I was trying to get some better fuel mileage than the 14 mpg that my 88 4runner has been giving me by moving the clip on the AFM back to stock. The PO told me he had moved it two notches rich from stock in order for it to run properly with the Delta Cam he put in it. Well, it won't run at...

So I finally ditched my first Gen and am now the proud owner of a 1990 Chevy SNB, 4*4, z71, 350 TBI. As this is my first domestic rig, what can you guys tell me about it? Anything in particular I need to keep an eye on? I already know it needs some little stuff like drivers door pins, new door...

Let me start with a little back story. My 80 short bed started making what sounded like transmission noise a while back, it had an old L series 5 speed in it, So I dug around and found a cheap G series with a case attached to it and threw that in the truck after making up a quick new...

So I've got an 80 shortbed Toyota with a rusty factory fuel tank. Finally tired of dealing with it cutting out when a flake goes through the pickup/filter so I picked up a plastic fuel cell from toyotanut here on the board. Looking to put it in the bed of the truck just not one hundred percent...

So my dad would like to have round headlights on his 92 YJ. I heard something, somewhere, at some point in time about being able to put a CJ grille and head light buckets onto a YJ? Any truth to this? If not, what are my other options for getting him to round lights from his square stuff? This...

So I had some spare cash after the gift giving of the holidays was done and all, so I decided to buy myself a grinder instead of spending it all on hookers and blow. :awesomework: Ended up getting a Milwaukee 4.5" 10 amp for a hundred bucks, model # 6148-30, for those that are more internet...

I was on my way home last night, driving my 1981 Toyota SR5 pickup, hit a bump, and all my dash lights and tail lights went out. So I figure ok, I've got a short somewhere that finally rubbed through, no big deal, find, it fix it, I'm on my happy way. But no. :mad: For background info, I...

So I have an 85 22R in my 81 Toyota. Everything was grand until I went wheeling in it this past saturday. Had to ford a couple pretty deep holes and as one would expect, lots of stuff under the hood got wet. No big deal right? Pull dizzy cap off, make sure everything is dry, check all the plug...

So I've installed LED Tail lights on my 81 toyota and everything seems to work fine, except when I turn on either blinker in the cab, both of them flash. I am using truck lite brand 60 series (oval) three wire lights(One for Turn/stop, one for tail, and one for ground) WTF...

Does anyone know for sure what my knuckle studs need to be torqued to? neither of the manuals i have have a listing for it, just that the nuts holding the arms on need to be at 62-79 ft-lb. Also, when i took this axle that i am rebuilding apart, the steering arm on top didn't have any shims in...

Are the steering gear box flanges, where the sector shaft bolts to the box, the same on an IFS box and a solid axle push pull box? I didn't realize until I got home with my IFS box today that it didn't come with one.

Who sells the better knuckle rebuild kit? I don't feel like spending the $170 that Marlin wants for theirs because i don't feel like I need the wheel bearings. and then All Pro has theirs for 90. should I go with the AP since I've heard lots of bad stories about TG trunion bearings being shitty.

Are the u-joint yokes between first and second gen toyota drivelines interchangable? As in can I just use a first gen flange on my second gen driveline? My 81 has a booty fab driveline to use the second gen large pattern pinion flange, and with new front diff I will be switching back to the...

So, for my 81 Pickup I've got on it currently a set of wing window doors. Picked up a set of full window doors last week. Which should I run as fulls and which should I chop in half? Or should I sell the fulls, buy another set of wings and chop the lesser pair?

So I've got a 84+ 22R, equipped with manual choke weber and some brand of long tube header. in my 81 Pickup and it just recently started having a weird "hiccup". Scenario: While cruising at constant throttle or slowly rolling into throttle, above ~2500 Rpm, the tachometer will "jump" and I can...

So I searched and I can't find anybody that has done this. Been trying to find some cheap ways to use a longer spring in the rear of my 81, and I thought to myself, why have I never heard of this? There are plenty of guys using them in the front for an even longer RUF combination, but is there...

Ok, here's the scenario. Got an 81 4x4 that I want to use a set of marlin 5" spring I picked upfor the front while staying as low as possible. First I thought os just using and re-inforcing the stock hangers, with boomerang shackles, 12" shocks, home brew hoops, crossover, and u bolt flip. My...

I've got a 81 Toyota pickup with an L52 in it currently, and I am replacing the transmission with another early style 5-speed. The thing I need to know is, do I HAVE to use another gasket type seal between the trans and t-case or can i just use RTV or some other type of liquid gasket? I've got a...
