A buddy told me about Meshtastic the other day and its pretty neat. You basically setup your own little cell/radio text repeaters so you can run messaging off grid where you don't have cell service. I have been screwing around with it for the last week or so and its pretty straightforward...

I grenaded 3, 8.4 diffs in my tundra before I supercharged it and stopped breaking diffs. You know, because I have not finished the install and tune. Seriously though, plan to get a decent diff or swap the axle. Sean

The weld is the strongest part of the joint, that's why you leave big gaps to fill, you get more weld in your weld. I learned that from the book of the piece.

Looks awesome, like it was meant to be there! I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to convert the underhood evap canister to the landcruiser style under the floor to clear up space in the engine bay. That's a future project though. Sean

Looks like his patent is for rear suspension if I am reading it right. It also specifically says for a rear/rear mid mounted engine in the claims. He wouldn't have been able to patent it otherwise since the front concept was prior art even if it was expired. So front setup like that is fine, a...

I vote van 4wd conversion style with a weirdass v drive connecting left and right differentials. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1712765-1980-econoline-w-rare-vemco-v-drive-4x4.html https://www.blueovaltrucks.com/tech-articles/the_vemco_v-drive_system/ Sean

What did you use for your tube racks in the last picture? Are they just lagged into the studs? Sean

I'm still mostly moving into my new place despite actually moving in July of last year, but I got some work done on the electrical and lights this past weekend. No, the Tundra isn't running yet, AAA chase moved it. I tossed some no/nc limit switches on the garage door rails to control the...

I love the bttf/rc car look you have going. It's epic! Sean

Hps makes a nice kit if you want to swap the hoses out. https://hpsperformanceproducts.com/products/hps-silicone-heater-coolant-hose-kit-2000-2006-toyota-tundra-v8-4-7l-57-1340 Sean

Prerunner bros, its not just guys, but we do love meat in our mouth. Sean

Which way do the extrusions run? Along the driveshaft axis or along the axle axis? Sean

Bonus points if you french the tracks flush in the floor. That would be a really clean install. I have some between the grooves in my truck bed and they are just flush with the bedliner. I'm super happy with them and I can still load rocks and drywall and shit in there. Sean

What calipers are on it? Stock spindle or aftermarket? Sean

I was also told there was a bottle shortage when I went to get mine ~1.5 years ago. I grabbed the last one in my area after trying probably 5 shops. Also no one wants to hydro them locally anymore. There is like one shop in Houston that does it and the hours are stupid short. Sean
