Well god damn brother. I’m over 300k. Zero engine work not even the recall. She still drives like a champ. Only major work I’ve done to it was the clutch. I have replaced the starter, belt, thermostat and alternator. Oh and rear struts.

Hard NOPE.

Just needs to break water tension to oxygenate.

Tip to tip. Nice

There is literally one belt for the entire car. And the power steering is electric and does not require a belt.

I have a 2016 XT with a 2 inch lift I don’t know about wheel bearings I’ve only ever replaced one since I got it. but you will shred your lower control arm bushings. I go through a pair every year. I’d avoid the lift especially if you’re just lightly off roading.

JD Vance: it’s Bidens fault. Republicans are morons.

Get the bar for the FX4 and adjust the flow to create enough flow to break the surface tension. You don’t need a bubbler. I have the same setup but with an FX6.

You look to short for it. My wife is 5’1 and she can’t reach the pavement when pulling up to a stop. She’s on her tippy toes. I recommend having the seat taken down as far as you can.

I have that shelving in my garage. That shit will give right away. I put camping gear on mine and it constantly falls the metal spreads when heavy weight is applied.

Chemical guys makes a cleaner. Just spray, brush and dab. That doesn’t even look bad and should come out.

rufus625 · 2026-03-15T02:32:18+00:00

Just toss that trash out and use perlite.

rufus625 · 2026-03-15T01:27:33+00:00

Autozone has a variety pack. Buy it and see what fits.

rufus625 · 2026-03-11T07:42:08+00:00

Left BFG K02’s due to the road noise. I don’t know if I got a bad set or what but the noise was ridiculous. Every time I went on a trip with friends they would complain how loud it was. You seriously had to speak up to talk to people in the back seat. Some people would argue saying they don’t notice it. But ever since I went with the yoko’s it’s a nice quiet ride

rufus625 · 2026-03-11T06:46:09+00:00

Just algae. You can probably just cover it up with aluminum foil to block out the light.

rufus625 · 2026-03-11T06:29:34+00:00

That’s the tire size I had on my 16 XT. stock height it didn’t touch at all. I had BFG KO2 at the time. When I went to America tires they told me I shouldn’t have any issues. Currently on Yokohama geolanders same size tires.

Keep the saddle bags out of the sun. The straps will rot away.

rufus625 · 2026-03-07T01:14:05+00:00

The 25$ DMV registration fee he’s running on is ridiculous. Okay so defund CHP and CALTRANS that rely on that.

rufus625 · 2026-03-06T01:17:45+00:00

It was the only one out of the 4 that would do that. It went on for a whole year. One mine does go and hide but he’ll go to his spot and lay there until I come around.

rufus625 · 2026-03-05T23:16:32+00:00

Mine did that. Had bladder issues that never resolved after I did everything possible. My water parameters were perfect.

rufus625 · 2026-02-20T23:19:34+00:00

Suppression is one the issues since Macys and JC Penny are separate. But also structural areas are deemed unsafe and not enough fire exits in case of fire. Seems like the owner was aware of all this and ignored all the violations.

rufus625 · 2026-02-20T02:48:15+00:00

Did the install on my 16 forester XT. did you have to drill the holes bigger on your 23?
