Who the hell steals a differential?? Are you serious???!?

Guardian_Saint · 08-14-2007, 08:47 PM

Hey weaselman, I been in UA in sacramento before, I remember seeing your truck park way back in the corner w/o the camper on and no club, so I'm guessing that you work there? Is it an automatic or 5 Speed manuel?

weaselman · 08-14-2007, 09:52 PM

yea thats me :-D but yea its a 5 speed...i usually put tha club on...its just that sometimes im late for work...and it just kinda slips tha mind...never had any issuses until yesterday afternoon in broad daylight!!! and yes i work there..

and yes, they seriously stole the differental...

bull307 · 08-18-2007, 08:22 PM

yea now im worried to leave my truck when the top is off
i wonder if old yotas are easy to jack

infiltrator · 08-18-2007, 08:33 PM

yeah, i imagine so, the old fords you can steal if you just jam a freaking flathead screwdriver in the lock, can do this to start the damn thing too...

im not a theif... but i know.. i dont know how i know lol...

fatrick24 · 08-19-2007, 05:44 PM

damn after hearing all these stories i put a hidden switch under the dash of my truck that kills power to my truck ignitions because my tumbler is so messed up you can start my runner with any key i don't need that thing stolen

naadomail · 08-19-2007, 08:01 PM

I'm not sure where the guy got it, but when I bought my old jeep (see avatar) it came with a little number pad installed on the dash. you had to put in a 4 digit code in order to turn on the fuel pump. Otherwise you would just keep turning it over.

weaselman · 08-22-2007, 08:16 PM

Wease, p.m. sent.

dezrik · 08-26-2007, 01:03 PM

I recently broke the ignition on my Yota cause i lost my keys on the trail riding my 4wheeler, Its VERY simple to start a yota with no key, I used a Small flathead and a phillips took me about 2minutes to take the whole ignition apart without damaging anything

Switchtr3 · 09-04-2007, 05:10 PM

I used to be able to start my old yota with pennies or other keys or my thumbnail. Its retarted. I got a newer ignition lock on my new truck, one that doesnt use a straight key with 2 round bumps on it lol. Anyone whos ever been in one knows how easy they are to start. Word of advice, use as many anti-theft precautions as possible and maybe update your locks. I hate people going and making me paranoid to walk 10 feet away from my truck at night. get your own damn truck

Malczuk4runner · 10-03-2007, 07:38 AM

yea guys, all first gen keys work in eachother, iv had 4 89 4runners, and i got the keys mixed up all the time, i still have 2 sets cuz i got 2 truck, when someone asks for a key to get into it i just say pick any... the other day i saw an 88 xcab and i wanted to see if my key would work, i unlocked the door and then re-locked it, i wasnt going to break in to see if i could start it, but yea man... pretty much all first gen keys work interchangably..

keithguts · 10-03-2007, 08:31 AM

I have key hidden outside of my rig cause the dam thing locke itself at random. But I will say, you will never find my key.
