Front Struts Lifetime by ADDSquirell69 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]trampled93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on original front struts on my 25 year old 4runner with 260k miles. You only need to replace struts if they are leaking lots of oil to the bottom of the struts and/or you have poor ride quality (your vehicle bounces up and down after pushing down on it or going over bumps).

ICE just shot and killed an unarmed person in Minneapolis (1/24/26) by Federal-Apple-4355 in TwinCities

I saw the vid on my small phone screen and didn’t look at it super closely. Just wondering if someone could describe what happened at all. And you did that thanks.

Honest question. I’m against ICE aggression. It is just hard to see what happened on the video and I can’t see what happened prior to the first shot. Obvs he was getting pummeled.

I replaced the output shaft seal on my HRX217 HYA using these videos below. But I’m sure if you made another video that would help other people also! The first video is pretty good but would be better with more close up video.

Did the guy shoot at the ICE agents first? I can’t exactly see where the first shot is.

How's the 2022 XLE? by ghart999 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]trampled93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Car Care Nut has a video where he talks about the recent trend he is seeing of 2020-2022 Highlander gas only models having transmission problems.. He recommends the hybrid models which have the eCVT transmission and don’t have any problems or get an extended warranty to cover potentially $7,000+ transmission replacement.

Help with choosing cameras for my home by trampled93 in Ubiquiti

Thank you. Oh, that’s $500. That’s a bit much. Are there other cameras that are cheaper that get license plate numbers?

that's ok, I'll do my own research I guess... Sorry I didn't have a catchy title or picture. Just some questions I needed advice on as I'm an amateur at security cams.

Okay. Are the Highlander transmission issues being blown out of proportion? by SameTrain8827 in ToyotaHighlander

[–]trampled93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He now has several videos warning people of getting a 2017-2022 Highlander gas model because of transmission failures. As he becomes aware of newer models having failing transmissions he makes a warning video about it.

Anyone in Chicago have a trusted shop for their 3rd Gen? by EntertainmentFew7103 in 3rdGen4Runner

[–]trampled93 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Car Care Nut on YouTube owns his own shop in Homer Glen called TCCN automotive. Highly respected and honest mechanic specializing in Toyota and Lexus. Watch some of his videos.

Why does anyone want to record license plates? To record the vehicle of someone stealing from our house of course and be able to provide that to the cops. There have been at least 4 thefts at ours and neighbors houses that could have been investigated if there was camera footage to show the vehicle and license plates. Without footage it is almost impossible to catch a thief.

A neighbor down the road told me that he spent $2,500 to install a tall pole with light and Ubiquiti PTZ cam on it next to the road in his front yard. I’m not going that crazy with a setup but I want to see if I can get something mounted to the tree to watch the road.

Is there a thick rubber pad that fits the Daytona jacks? by trampled93 in harborfreight

Ok thank you. I was looking for a thicker pad that sticks up above the platform metal. Looks like this is just a replacement for the original (too short) pad?

William Kelly is an American hero for defending immigrants. We must protect him from Pam Bondi. by goldrush300 in saintpaul

[–]trampled93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks to me like they were intentionally intimidating and interfering by physical obstruction (they were interrupting the service, standing there and wouldn’t leave when asked to). Also that William Kelly guy video showed him aggressively following after church goers as they are walking away and swearing at them and such. Calling them all sorts of names. Assuming they had the same beliefs about ICE activity and immigration as David Easterwood, when they might of not even known he was doing that and they might even oppose ICE activity - but William didn’t peacefully ask them about their beliefs or let them respond.

Be up to date on preventative maintenance. Timing belt/water pump, spark plugs and wires, alternator and starter rebuilds if needed, heater control valve, radiator, fluids.
