    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    I know that feeling, my truck might as well be a tin can rolling end over end with how annoying it sounds just doing normal stuff. Lots of interior panel rattles, not the dash mostly the back wall.

    I have silenced every rattle except for the passenger airbag. It make a hell of a vibration sound under very specific road conditions.

    Ran out of gas on my way to work in a torrential hail/rain downpour because I never know how much gas I have in the tank after banging my gas tank against a rockface while wheelin.. worst part is that my gas tank skid wasn't installed yet because the paint was curing from the rattle-can job I did to it:anonymous:

    Ok I read somewhere on here someone bought them powder coated, so that was my bad for assuming the same. Looks good though, thanks for the ideas

    Had to grind the edges for it to fit, but otherwise it worked well. I sold it to a member here so it may still be floating around.

    What were some symptoms that made you change the bearing? I'm not having any issues but seems like it's something I may want to go ahead and do
