Lightbulb Hey moderators!!

I have a suggestion for the forum. I am also a member on the toyotanation forum, and in the subforum like our 87-96 year model forum, they have a stickied page with links to DIY and how-to threads on the forum. Something like this should exist for this forum. It would be really nifty. Sections for performance mods, exterior and interior, etc so that way people don't post the same tired questions over and over, they can just be sent to the DIY thread.

Comments, suggestions, complaints?

You mean like this?
https://www.f150forum.com/f33/

Or people could use the search block first, to check if there is any info.

The problem there is, the '87-'96s are hardly represented in that how to section, whereas the newer gens are all over the place. Or at the very least, newer gen how-to's are more common and "clog" up the first few pages. Just dividing the how-to's into general, and year ranges would work great

I'm all for it, I've been doing a lot of wondering on the how-to's, trying to find some convenient stuff for our model years!

here's the page I got the idea from. This is toyotanations DIY forum for the 3rd gen camry...

http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/sh...d.php?t=220549

It's well set up in sections with headings and all the links are on one page. I saw the how-to section you posted, but it's true, it isnt year model specific, which would be nice.

I will bring this to Jon and Nathan's attention as they are the one's in charge of layout of the website and see what they say about it.

Thanks for the suggestions!
