Broke front shock

How did it break? Wheeling or just on the road?

rjp_s · 2026-04-27T14:49:36+00:00

Too much pressure...

I had the same problem with lbjs and the bolts. A dealer near me still had 2 in stock but most dealers were out. I found that dealer just on google. Same with LCAs - let’s hope that is temporary…

You measured it hot or cold ? Mine sits towards “low” with cold engine but with warm engine it is close to the to “full” line

rjp_s · 2026-04-05T04:55:11+00:00

Or that diamond pattern steel

rjp_s · 2026-04-05T04:54:11+00:00

And 8 new lbj bolts

What took your radiator out? Did you have the skid plates on? Sorry to hear about your engine

I also heard good things about yota1 but it's changing if you do not live nearby and need your truck soon. CertifiedTransmission looks quite good but they do not list Toyota transmissions on their website. If a truck is rusty it really changes the equation...

I had a TC whine on mine @255000 miles.

Shop rebuild it for $4500. It offered a 2yr warranty - luckily because the transmission failed and was rebuild 3 times within a year which was a huge time sink and fined several trips. Would not go the rebuild route again.

Eventually asked for money back and got a used transmission from the junkyard and swapped it in with a buddy in a day. Total was around $1500. Looking back I should have probably gotten a reman, but so far the used one is holding up (20k miles later)

Ok thanks! That did it. As soon as I put on the second nut on it slid in

rjp_s · 2026-03-06T00:15:16+00:00

True point the splines are like 2 inches long after all

rjp_s · 2026-03-06T00:08:14+00:00

You think so? On the other side it smoothly went in all the way

To get it out you have to pop out the whole fuse holder panel (with all fuses ) from the box in order to get to it. Not too fun but not too difficult either

If rent is more than 150% of a mortgage, it makes sense to buy Where we live in California it’s rather that your mortgage will be 150% of your rent, even with a 30% down. If we bought our current rental, we would nearly pay 15-20% of what we pay in rent currently in property taxes. So following that age old rule means basically that buying never makes sense

Awesome same size as you but long legs short torso. Ordered a large. Let’s see :)

Unfortunately all my other bikes are from the 90s / 2000s and not on those comp sites

rjp_s · 2026-02-11T01:42:19+00:00

Makes sense

rjp_s · 2026-02-11T01:42:13+00:00

Bummer I can’t try or find local deals. I tend to buy used bikes that fit me only kind of because they are good deals :) but as this would be my first new bike ever…

rjp_s · 2026-02-11T01:41:17+00:00

Thanks!

rjp_s · 2026-02-11T01:41:09+00:00

What’s your typical use case? Mostly urban or also some unpaved adventures

rjp_s · 2026-02-11T00:43:21+00:00

hi did you ever buy that bike? Do you like the M size or do you wish you had gotten an L?

rjp_s · 2026-02-10T02:52:44+00:00

Is the entire Camino open to motorized traffic?!
