1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Eesh. That's the Avalon? I'm gonna guess they'll total it.

 

Unfortunately this is the only way to kill a Toyota. That 3.5 has proven itself over the years

 

The ICC has spoken, this is the way.
Harmony with car parts is essential, it's not a Ford and bmf will learn the proper flow of energy and chi. The light you see is not heaven, it's headlights so step to the side and let it flow.

He will find his way

 

I will be shocked if they don't total that...doesn't mean you can't buy it back and fix it...there might even be people here who have done something like that before and can offer advice... ;-)

 

Eh. 2 doors in that color I can get for 300 together. The dog leg and b pillar can be pulled for a couple hundred. And the skirt I can get off the other car too. Looking at it closer they’ll probably fix it.



I hope.

 

What is the KBB value?

 

4200-6400

 

Ask them to use lead body filler and see what they say...

 

The administrative costs for them paying to repair a vehicle in that price range relative to the value of the vehicle after the repair means they usually will total it, but I hope you get the outcome you want.

 

If I tell my mother her avalon is worth less than 10k she would freak.
If they choose to repair, ask them for diminished value.

 

Got my front end stuck in a ditch, my front tires were basically buried in 2 foot of snow. 5 mins later a ups guy comes by and puts on his emergency tire chain things on my two rear tires. After about 15 mins of torture on my truck and rocking it back and forth I got out!

 

Glad you got out. I hope your transmission is ok. Rocking is the worst thing for it. Deduction on your Man Card for getting stuck. Another deduction for UPS man help.

 

Well, maybe I should have phrased that differently, I stayed in 4lo reverse the entire time, letting the momentum of the truck do the rocking for me I was mainly worried about my driveshaft and axle because of the sudden grip from the tires spinning over and over and over

 

I almost got stuck in a ditch deliberately driving into one while taking a new 2 door Tahoe out on a test drive. I thought the 4wd would easily get me out of it. Thankfully I didn’t have to call the dealer, but I’m sure they were wondering why it was covered in mud up to the windows when I left them the keys.

 

Anyone know if I can get these door card push pins replaced? They are broke on my driver door.

 

If there’s no part number for it or if you have to buy as a complete assembly with a door panel you may just want to find a local salvage yard you can walk around and get them in another tundra.

 

Check Napa or like a local paint/body shop. We have a Parts Plus that carries nothing but autobody/paint supplies and they have this giant wall of all kinds of random fitment pieces like that for almost every vehicle make.

That employee must be my long lost son...

 

I know I can find generic ones but I want the oem colored ones cause I’m weird like that

 

The comments are funny.

 

I believe these are the numbers

Dark gray 9046707066P6
Sandal wood 90467A0016E1
Medium Charcoal 9046707066B8
Fawn 9046707066E8

 

Me too.

I have one of these, that's either going on my motorcycle or the tailgate of the Tundra -- haven't decided which yet. Either way, it ought to make some people do a double-take.

 

@Professional Hand Model
Went to Napa to get speed bleeders, but guy said he couldn’t find a/the PN for the proportioning valve.
I looked thru your build page; is the , 675-1573 Pn for the proportioning valve?

 

I can’t remember. I bought some for the 13WE which I think I swapped out and into the Prop Valve when I converted to 13WL. Or, I bought extra 13WL set and used only one of them back there.

I’ll need to look in the Nerve Center and try to figure it out.

 

Meet a Toyota Technician from one of my local Stealers today over at a friends house. He commented on how nice my truck looked and said I made the right decision in keeping her. He said the Turd Gen is junk. Cam Towers leak, wimpy towing, etc he brought up as problems. Said stay away!

He said I should get another 100k out of this one without major engine rebuild. Might be about 15 years at the rate of miles I am driving.

 

She's a beaut, Clark.
