Gonna have to look into that sensor. I swear I've been feeling a dead spot intermittently and I don't believe I'm imagining it. I'd be cruising along at 35 to 45mph then suddenly feel an instant deceleration then back up again all within 1-2sec. At first, I thought it was just load range E MT...

I used OE bearings, PN 90369-54002. Personally, I'm not one to cheap out on parts that serve critical functions. Especially true when I'm so hard on the car. The 35s ain't no joke either.

REPAIR: Front Wheel Bearings DURATION: 2 hours COST: $400 SUMMARY: It all started when the Sequoia started to make a chaffing noise. As I suspected, it was the fan pulley bracket. Between traveling for work and work and prepping to hit the mountains, I was pressed for time. So in the shop...

MODIFICATION: Constant 12V Ports GOAL: Add some aesthetically pleasing, easily accessible, integrated 12V ports independent of the keyed ACC. PURPOSE: Really want to be able to charge my devices when boondocked without having to leave my key in the ACC position or have to use a battery pack...

Possible solutions I've come across are the webasto marine mufflers and dirt bike mufflers. Haven't tried them since they don't fit in my install.

Meh, I don't want to deal with people and whatever issues that comes up from a sale. You how finicky these heaters can get. Plus, I don't believe I could sell it for an amount to make it worth the effort. I am, however, toying with the idea of rebuilding the Rigid case to keep as a spare...

MODIFICATION: Diesel Heater 2.0 GOAL: Apply some lessons learned and "fix" some annoyances about heater 1.0. PURPOSE: Moving the heater to the roof really worked out nicely. However, it presented some painful and inconvenient aspects to it. So, I decided to repackage it. DURATION: 2 hours...

Thanks! She's easily recognized so, yeah, feel free. No issues as far as I can tell. Much more convenient on the roof compared to being on the ground and having to pack/unpack the heater when caramping. The controller is mounted loose for accessibility.

MODIFICATION: Heater Window Insert GOAL: Add a connection for the externally mounted diesel heater and keep the elements out. PURPOSE: I needed a way to plumb the heater into the cab. I tried different methods, but a rear hatch window insert made the most sense. This method enabled me to...

Meh, needs more descriptions. ?

That build looks super solid. ?

A lot can happen in a month. Good things i hope, lol.

Man! I want those manual hubs...but...ugh...$$$...?

You mean something that can be purchased off-the-shelf specifically for the Sequoia? I don't know of any of any drawer system like that. Nor do I know of something that could be retrofitted. All rear drawer solutions I've seen have been custom jobs.

I'd wager 18-20AWG. Having it pre-wired was a huge seller. That and it was cheap.

They are pretty bright. I don't think the cam was compensating. The true test will be when I take it out in pitch black conditions.

MODIFICATION: Rock Lights GOAL: Moar illumination. PURPOSE: Admittedly, I bought the lights on a whim after I put in my switches and electrical framework. "What do I hook up to my switches?!" After putting in my alley lights, I figured I might as well dust these off and make use of them in...

MODIFICATION: Custom Grille GOAL: Replace the old and busted with some new hotness. PURPOSE: I was tired of masking and repainting the front grille black. And the dated look. Because I like throwing the baby out with bathwater, I hacked up my front grille to update the look. DURATION: 8...

Yep. And headlamps too...when I remember to keep them charged. ?
