Thank you everyone for your thoughts. The bone piece cannot be removed without taking apart the handle, which I don't want to take the chance doing. The tang is really small and thin.
I was hoping to make it usable, but it seems like that is unlikely. I will probably tack it together or JB...
I know there are some fabricators on here. I would like to find someone to fix a knife. My great grandpa made it out of parts from a b52 bomber cockpit. My grandpa used it as a hunting knife while he was alive until it broke. Before he died he passed it to me. The blade is steel; the finger...
That's what I was afraid of. How large of an undertaking would it be to fix on my own? Is there a lot to gain by fixing it right away or can I shift carefully until it gets a lot worse without causing a lot more damage?
Hey All,
I have a manual 06 tacoma with 80,000 miles on it. A couple months ago my transmission started to grind a little only when I shift from 2nd to 3rd gear. If I make sure that the clutch is 100% depressed and shift slowly, with a slight pause while in neutral, it shifts smoothly. I have...
Hey amp, my buddy and I will be down there Thursday night through Sunday. We were thinking of lighter trails as well like top of the world, 7mile, and/or fins and things. We are open to whatever though. It would be great to meet up with your group.
I am curious if you all think the tires on my daily driver are still ok? I have two half inch cuts in the sides walls and a chunk about the size of a quarter and maybe a quarter inch deep came out today while i was doing forest lake. They are mud terrains that came with the truck. I'm guessing...
Thanks everyone. I will definitely heed all this advice. I am going to check out the Haynes manual for sure as well as just keep trying each project that I think I might be able to do. Thank you everyone for all the great information.
I swapped tank straps and installed a skid plate today...
Hey All,
I did not grow up working on cars at all. I am trying to learn now. What are some good resources? I am looking stuff up on youtube as I go. I want to learn about a broader range of things. The biggest problem is that I don't know what I don't know.
Are there any community mechanic...
I had the two leaf spring package and put in an add a leaf kit. It made a world of difference. Five minutes after I got done putting them in I got a call from the dealership saying there was a leaf spring recall on my 06 Tacoma. I have been busy and drove the truck for a month before taking it...
I was out at little Moab this weekend. I have a white second gen Tacoma. I doubt the mounting points would line up but it would be worth a try. Yes I am looking for a gas tank skid right now. Eventually I might add more. PM me and I can come check out that skid sometime. I really appreciate the...
Does anyone have any suggestion on places to look for used parts? I am trying to find skid plates for my tacoma. I have been watching ebay, craigslist, ksl, the classifieds here, and a few facebook groups for parts sales around utah.
