    Running speaker wire to the rear single cab speakers

    Yeah I know with mine I wish I put an amp in. At idle the speakers are loud enough but when driving especially with the windows down I have to turn my head unit all the way up to hear my music. Also already having the amp wired in gives you flexibility. I know JL makes a 5 channel amp incase you...

    Odd hesitation

    Cat as in catalytic converter. You shouldn't have one on a 73 but since the PO did an engine swap it wouldn't hurt to check. Also check the gaskets for the fuel pump if you have a mechanical fuel pump. My truck would have a similar issue because it would blow out the gasket on the fuel pump. It...

    Running speaker wire to the rear single cab speakers

    Good wire makes all the difference. I personally always use 12ga but I also normally run an amp for everything. If your just using you head unit 16ga will be fine, but if it was me I would run good quality 12ga and not worry about it later.

    Whistling Noise while coasting

    Check your grounds. The clusters normally have a pretty weak ground from the factory. As far as the whistle I have no idea

    OD Green

    Prep work is the key to a good paint job. Rattle can is fine for a trail rig and I've seen some people who are really good with a rattle can. But if it is something you want to look good from closer then 10 yards get a gun

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I was wrong it is the pc68 LTW. It is still a nice CB I had a pc68 elite in my old tacoma. It is really handy on the trail and on road trips. I've had CBs in my vehicles since my 1st car. It is something that I've gotten used to and like to have.

    Question about the clutch

    Yes I have the granny gear, but I was almost to the top and didn't feel like shifting. My mistake I know but it happens. And trying to hold the clutch(non hydraulic) all the way to the floor and hold the brake isn't easy at all unless you have a shaq sized foot. I remember my 96 Tacoma had a...

    I'll warn you it will be a while. The wife and I are expecting our 2nd child in a couple of weeks, so money for tires doesn't exist. I will keep you in mind though when the time comes.

    New from Knoxville TN

    Thanks I originally bought them for my 96 Tacoma but I got rid of it and had these wheels with tires sitting. When I went to pick the truck up from my father in law it was sitting on 4 flat bald tires and 2 of them where slashed, so on these wheels and tires went. I still have the original...

I am the 3rd owner of this truck, I bought it from my father in law at the suggestion of my wife. Before you ask yes she kind of does regret that decision. The main use for...

    Question about the clutch

    First post, like the site everybody. I tried searching but didn't find what I was looking for. I have a 79 K10 with a 350/sm465/no205. I use the truck mainly for off roading here in east TN. I've had this happen twice where I was going up a hill had it in too high of a gear and the engine...
