Replaced a TPS and installed throttle body sync port extension tubes on my daily driver. First time doing any real wrenching on this one. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Replaced a window regulator/motor and a power lock actuator on the wife's Pilot. The regulator took 1/4 the time I expected and the power lock was a major PIA and took 4x what I expected. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Swept out some wind-blown leaves and swapped the non-voltage-gauge charging outlet for this one that includes a gauge on my daily driver. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Rite of passage, I guess. Nice work! Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Nice work and looking good! Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Do you have a thread for it, by chance? I'm just curious for some details. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

All these led light strips are making me jealous. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Re: What did you do "IN" your garage today? Quick chain spritz on the daily driver, and made myself a new chain spritz box. This thing, threaded up between the chain and the rear wheel in front of the rear sprocket plus one of those corrugate squares (placed under the rear sprocket)...

Finally changed the oil in the daily driver. Bought the thing months ago and haven't even looked at the sight glass. Guess I thought I'd change it straight away and then just rode and rode. The PO said he kept one of the trip meters set for oil change. I never did ask which one, but the...

Are those the HFT ones? Bought a bunch with a $5-6 coupon recently with plans to build a sorter/cart. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Re: What did you do "IN" your garage today? Hey appreciate it, Johnyg! Got everything back together and she wouldn't shift out of 1st on her own. She'll go in second if I manually shift to 2, but that's it. I checked the kick down/tv cable, and that didn't seem to be the problem...

Cleaning, puttering, feeling weird with my Land Cruiser dropped at a transmission shop. Never had anyone else work on her, and the driveway feels very empty. I left a list of quirks (e.g. oil press gauge always reads low, don't worry about that) like a dang new mommy leaving the baby with a...

Thanks for the kind words, fellas. She cranked for a while then fired! That means my "as long as it's on the bench" full starter rebuild (brushes, rubber bits, and bearings in addition to contacts and plunger) was successful AND I didn't screw up the neutral safety switch/connection in the...

These tires touched the earth for the first time in a solid six months. I'm bolting pieces on, connecting harnesses, hoping to fire her up soon, maybe even today, and see if my diy transmission rebuild was successful. Pretty nervous about it, if I'm honest. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Wow. That'd make a very cool and dangerous fidget spinner. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Installed the transmission fill tube and the starter on the Land Cruiser. First time wrenching in a flurry since we left New Hampshire more than 15 years ago. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Got more pieces bolted on towards finishing my diy transmission rebuild, while trying out the awesome home brew led work lights my electrician friend gifted me. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

Unmounted the transmission with a buddy and flipped my backwards-mounted flex plate around on the Land Cruiser. Re-mounted the transmission and things fit and move as they should now, flex plate is bolted up to the torque converter, and I'm ready to finish putting the truck back together! Sent...
