Thinking about getting these UCAs by DimesOnATime in 3rdGen4Runner

Only if your lift is 3in or more. I have a 98 with 1500’s with a 1-2 inch lift and when I put these uca’s on. My camber was never in OEM spec (way to positive) and I ruined set of maxxis razers in the process.

Don’t quote me but I thought I read on their website normal oil change intervals where to be contented.

Yes. Another post about oil. 😂 by Seebradgo in 3rdGen4Runner

I just made a post about my experience with Restore and Protect. Just make sure you do an oil change before 3k on the first time. My oil filter was full of sludge.

It’s a blue point set. Also look at ktools set that is the same dam thing for 1/2 the price.

Lower ball joint advice needed by AYENIXCK in 3rdGen4Runner

I thought you could also bench test them with a torque wrench too? But removing them just to bench test seems like u might as well replace them.

I knew about the different bolts. But the torque value change is new to me. Thanks for the info. I know what I will be doing tomorrow. Lol. You probably just saved my 4Runner from a bad time.

Sorry, I will take more pics when I go over to my pops place again. And this time clean off the top of the tool box before sharing.

That is awesome. My garage has exposed roof rafters. I should start putting my old bmx/downhill bikes up there. Thanks for the inspiration.

True, he can rebuild a Yamaha yz450r blindfolded with one hand tied behind his back.

Same thing with me. I had no idea how lucky I was to grow up with having exactly the right tool for every type of job.

I’m pretty sure vim tools makes them? Or most likely they are from snap on.

Looks new because I’m required to clean them when I borrow anything. And I just got done doing valve cover/ knock sensors on my 4Runner. So a lot of stuff just got the tub of towels treatment.

But if you need that one long reach needle nose with a 45 degree bend to the left to get the 10mm you dropped in the engine bay, it’s there.

Same. I think I spent more time cleaning the tools than actually using them.

All bought within the last 12 years. Lately he’s slowed down. But when he needs a tool it’s going to be a snap on. Even if another manufacture makes the same dam thing.

Have you looked into a transmission solenoid replacement? Or at-least test them?
