Yeah Dave, but you've had experience, know the clearances by heart and have the proper Freebisher wrenches. Consider the poor newbie.

My truck is in the background of that video....right hand side of the screen at about the 1:04 mark.

If you didn't notice, it was before the frame swap and big wheels.

Don't forget to chack the halogen fluid

You can only check that with a flibberty dipstick. While you are at it, you should clean the frober sceen.

Books???? We don't need no stinkin' books!!!!!!! I still use the International Bank of the Back Pocket!!!!!! Knee Cap Ned is my financial counsellor....I'd give ya his cell number but the County won't let him carry his cell phone where he's living now!!!! Makes it tough when I can only get financial advice on visiting days!!!!!

"International Bank of the Back Pocket!!!!!!"

Guys at the dealership where I sold Toyotas for several years used to call it "Hip National"

I hate going to Taiwan to get them, long, long flight and the guys at the parts store there don't even speak English........

That`s englrish to you pal..........

I can`t believe no one has thought to be sure and keep checking the canooter valve....that`s like the main computer in older engines....it controlls everything.

I just worry about the for-not-ney rod getting enough oil. That's an expense repair!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey gang - coming from Minnesota, there are always the Ole and Sven's tools that are needed to fix dang near anything mechanical.

The "awwchit" wrench is the one that rounds a perfectly square bolt.
The "disblows" brake line flush kit.
The "Yeo-dat-hurts" hammer for losening brake parts.
The "Grabda-wrongwrench" for those bolts that are under the car, in a tight spot, and the wrong size.
The "Stupid stupid stupid" stud extractor that snaps off in the stud.
The "GEEdats hot" thermal temperature probe (a.k.a. your burnt finger).
