sorry man, dont mean to be rude, but whats a lorn? ive never heard that term before..but hey get this... the tranny is now sounding normal again. maybe the synthetic wasnt lubricating it enuf, they used the wrong weight, or hell maybe it was my imagination. but its sounding normal, and its pretty much stopped leaking. its still leakin a couple drops once in awhile since the undercarriage is soaked with oil (plan on fixing that this saturday when i rack it again and spray the whole undercarriage with brake cleaner). im doin an oil change with engine restore, castrol 20-50, a V8 filter, and TX-7, if i can get my hands on it from the local terrible herbst lube station.

haha, i might be able to put it at my buddy steves place.. but i dunno. hes already got a 76 caddy in the back yard that hes working on restoring. ill prob just pass on it fdor now, i dont feel like forkin out 6 of my good friend franklin for somehtin that dont run at this moment. remember im also saving to go to san diego for christmas. lol. if the tranny stops leaking totally, and the oil change fixes the knocking in the engine, then i will be saving every penny to get to san diego. after that who knows.

OK, here we go. got the castrol 20w-50 high mileage oil, gonna get a V8 oil filter at the shop tomorrow, (i get em for free), marvel mystery oil, and a can of engine restore. now my main question is this: what year of tundra do i tell my boss to give me for the oil filter? oh, and got the wab-fab sticker on my truck now... check it out.

kinda looks like you got 2 bumpers? if you took the bottom one off maybe it could help save some weight?

did yours have toyota on the back? i saw a pickup once that just said "toy" and it was in the middle (not like the others peeled off) but it was neat.
