    Scepter MFC - UV fading / damage / cleaning

    That's called "patina." Removing said patina reduces your credentials as an over-lander.

    No it's not normal; the owner wanted to keep it. Where the 4 bolts above the hitch is where the mount normally sits.

    Removing Anti-theft lug nuts.

    Have you tried the dealership or another tire store? It looks similar to the wheel lock I had on mine. Incidentally I ditched the locking lug nuts after I couldn't remove the wheel from a flat I had on the side of the road with my Prius and the toothed key adapter broke. Ended up getting...

    OXO Good Grips Egg Beater

    Yes; pasteurization only brings the temperature up to a certain point for a specified period but does not bring the temp up to that which would completely eliminate pathogens. Attached is a web site that should answer your questions regarding egg products...

    OXO Good Grips Egg Beater

    That which does not kill us makes us stronger... That's a novel idea but risky - aren't you concerned about bacterial growth? :Wow1: Salmonella is a very real possibility for eggs outside of their very sanitary shell. Egg products must be kept at least below 40 degrees at all times and...

    Pre 1985 toyota SFA diesel Swaps

    Link in post #19 above ^. Anyway, I agree with your observation about the B3.3 but subsequent dialog on fitting it in other vehicles has been nil despite additional requests for information. I suspect because its a relatively new engine and it just hasn't been done before. I'd hate to be the...

    Pre 1985 toyota SFA diesel Swaps

    Or you could get a Toyota gas 3RZ from the US with 150hp and 170tq. Load your vehicle with camping gear and tow a trailer, perhaps with mods to the truck that include armor, larger tires, different suspension... well you're in the same disappointing boat you started in. My point being is you...

    OzWagon - My HZ75 series Troopie

    I'm sorry to hear that - you put a lot of work into the truck to get it fine tuned to your liking. I know I'm speaking to the font of knowledge on the subject of accessibility, but there aren't any options/modifications available to make shifting easier for a BKA?

    Another OzTent Groupie

    Your math is good. I have an RV2 and I'm 72 inches. You may have to sleep angled in the tent. As far as loading in the Tacoma, I load it angled inside the bed - one end in the PS front corner, other end resting in the DS rear corner. That allows me access to my ARB fridge mounted to the bed...

    AGM requires special charger. T/F?

    Sort of. I recommend Battery Minder... http://www.batteryminders.com/batterycharger/catalog/BatteryMINDer-12-Volt-2-4-or-8-Amp-Charger-Maintainer-Desulf-p-16133.html I use it to maintain the AGM's on my truck as it isn't a daily driver and can sit unused for a while. Desulfinates; can be used...
