I have owned & driven MTs in various makes & models, and done lots of maintenance. Here’s what I have learned: The engineers aren’t idiots. Whatever they say to use, well then by golly use it. Seriously. It took me years to learn that I wasn’t smarter than the engineers. I did almost...

I say go up in multiples of 20 until you let all the smoke out. That‘ll git ‘er done! BTW, you do own a fire extinguisher, don’t you?

Great question. I’d also like to know. They are the smallest diameter aluminum Bronco wheel so they‘re definitely the lightest.

Big Bend are not steel. Base & Black Diamond are steel.

“Your mileage may vary“ Seriously. No two people drive the same. Hills & altitude vary. Weather conditions vary. Amount of gear in the trunk varies. Rolling resistance, construction & inflation of tires vary. Exterior accessories vary. The list goes on.

THANKS FOR SHARING! Where can I find this ?

How’s the wench working? Have you tried it yet?

What I’m about to say is sacrilege: KO2‘s on my Tacoma were the worst. No kidding.

Some tires are just more squirrelly than others. Tread blocks, construction, etc.

3 out of 4 electrical issues are ground wire. I had issues kinda like that in a stereo and it was a poor ground wire connection.

2.3L 4-cylinder or 2.7L V6 engine ???
