    I'm in the process of buying new inner/outer tie rods and upper/lower ball joints. I'd like to go OEM on everything, but ITREs on Camelback Toyota are $126 while Moog ITREs on RockAuto are $30 and on Amazon they are $35...

    Does anyone know if the OEM price is for one or two? I'm assuming it's for one, but that's such a drastic price difference so I want to make sure. Might have to go Moog on the ITREs

    ^Yes it's for one inner tie rod only.

    Man I was just going to change my oil, opened up the hood to take the oil cap off the engine.. Coolant f'n everywhere.. Had a pipe clamp snap on me, luckily I think it popped on my way to work today and I caught it early. It was a Napa auto pipe clamp..

    I have moog bj's and tie rods and they have held up on LT just fine, FWIW the moog ball joints can be greased where OEM are sealed. Keeping them greased is the best thing you can do for longevity

    I'm going to be dumping my exhaust in front of the axle. At first I thought I'd get it done at a shop. Then I saw this thing. Thoughts?

    I went over a short section of washboard road conditions a few nights back and had to fight like mad to keep my own rear end from passing me on the left hand side :eek:

    Gravel roads are rough on me too. If there are any washboard conditions I have to slow almost to a crawl just to keep the rear end from coming around.

    Any thoughts? Maybe this is the excuse I need to start a suspension build :D

    It's not really a mystery. The rear needs to out-perform the front in order to keep up. It's the nature of the beast. Awesome front suspension literally means nothing at speed if you're running a stock(ish) rear. If not, ride-em cowboy!
    MT rear with Bilsteins in the front will outperform MT front and bilsteins in the rear 7 days a week.
