Yep, Toyota Genuine filters only, for my engine. They're less than $5. Can't go wrong.

Just changed my oil with Valvoline Max Life Synthetic Blend and a Purolator PureOne filter. I got 2 5 quart jugs of oil with a $14 rebate so it was almost like getting the filters for free

I like that TG bumper too. Mine's a little different, based off a TG winch plate, but the tube work was done by me and a buddy. Nobody made a bumper to fit my body lift, at the time, so I built my own...

I used larger calipers from a 95 pickup, Bosch rotors that I had drilled and slotted, carbon metallic brake pads, plus a 1" master cylinder and dual diaphragm booster from the same 95 pickup. I'll be eliminating the LSPV in the rear, in favor of an adjustable proportioning valve.

NAPA filters are WAY better... and actually a couple bucks cheaper... look into it.. after a very long overdue oil change in my truck (8 months... oops..) the oil is still as clean as it was the day I poured it in.

I get my Valvoline from Wal-Mart ($15ish) and my filter from AutoZone (less than $4).. Same Valvoline at AutoZone is almost $23

Im new here and was looking for some type of introduce yourself but saw this so ill do it here i guess. I just got my first toyota which i alwasy wanted but the price of them alwasy kept me away. I got a good deal on it but it had a rather annoying problem that it didnt start when it was warm or hot problem was fixed and now i want to start making this into a semi off roader and daily driver truck.

well here is my taco yes yes i know shes purple well im colorblind i thought it was black untill my wife told me why i bought a purple truck. It had some crapy 225/65/15 tires before that had no tread got these 31.5s A/Ts from a coworker for a good price.

I myself was actually staring at my mudflaps the other day wondering how long they would last Is it normal for them to be removed for any kind of wheeling?? I mean I like them on but seems they would be tore off pretty easy, what did you go through to rip it off diablo?
