    also that drivers window issue (if its electric) is the little barrels in the motor are probably gone and have crumbled. you can find these in the help section on the parts store...or you can buy a window motor rebuild kit from ebay cheap.

    Project Big Red

    Do your self a favor since you have it all apart and use a bolt and a heim joint on that clutch master rod. It will be way smoother and last longer.

    6.9 idi in a 4runner

    if i was going to build a diesel 4runner the last engine on my mind would be a 6.9/7.3 due to the size and weight. id be looking more towards an OM617 mercedes or even a half cut from an importer from florida. you could get a JDM halfcut with a factory installed yota diesel and everything would...

    Firewall reinforcement plate question

    put the big one back on. looks like someone decided to modify it as the clutch master cylinder holes are all "waller'ed out" and yes thats a technical term...you can use that... just put some fender washers on the master cylinder studs and call it good. or weld up the holes and re-drill them...

    The quest for a better paint job: Step 1 Paint Booth

    For what it's worth...when I painted my samurai I sprayed everything down with the water hose so the floor and walls were damp. I had no issues with the paint and no issues with overspray in the air either.

    Thinking out load

    the adapters are designed for the loads... i see no issue with using them...or with your logic... but to me personally i would pick either or and not both. seems like a major pain in the male member to have to go through all that work before a roadtrip only to do it again later. my CCLB 4x4...

    So, i got into an accident today...

    wow i am surprised no one on here mentioned to check the axle itself and make sure its not bent. i know its a D50 but taking a direct hit to the wheel suspension puts a ton of stress right at the pivot. ive seen a D50 axle beam bend and push the tire back into the fender well from a hit like that
