Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Either way I think you got a good deal all around. You will be able to drive that thing another 300k miles easy and worry free...

 

Missed connection:
You, white 2nd gen SW TRD OR DC debadged method wheels and icon lift in San Rafael/ California.
Know what member this might be? Sweet rig.

 

Since you guys answer quicker than the NW guys and possibly know more, I need to replace my inner tie rod ends and power steering rack bushings.

Where is the best place to get new inner tie rod ends? Dealer quoted me at $141 each, not sure if that is ridiculously expensive or about right..

And has anyone replaced their power steering rack bushings? Thinking of getting the ones from Toytec unless someone knows something better?

 

What's the password?

 

uhh.. NorCal rocks NW sucks..?

 

rock auto had good prices for tie rods n stuff

 

I saw those but are they that good of quality? $39 per side seems low..

 

Spotted @ffdawson downtown cotati pulling a trailer. Love your rig!

 

Hey, who was bombing down Coleman today? Speedway Blue DC?

 

@DannyBFresco being a speed racer for once?

 

I ordered the MOOG EV80379 Inner TRE's for $21 each. I have trusted Moog with everything else.

 

hmm alright.. Do those fit the 2nd gen 4.0L taco too?

 

I'd double check but I'd think so. But still confirm.

 

Apparently moog doesn't sell the inner tie rod itself, you have to buy the whole steering pack.. They sell the outer tie rod end separate but not inner. Am I missing something? http://www.moog-suspension-parts.com/products/toyota_tacoma_4wd_2007?scri=36&filter

 

I pulled mine up on rock auto and searched through steering>tie rod ends> then found moog and inner which shows the inner rod and joint.

 

Rock auto only has Moog inners for the xrunner and pre runner.. Only place i've found that has moog inners for 4x4 is this place. At least I found them http://www.summitracing.com/parts/m...3UMESE0ikmj4T2HvWBTXlwULqZrY-GrJc9hoC_Ejw_wcB

 

Well shit lol. At least you found them. Summit is legit too and ships from Nevada. Typically quick.

 

Haha yeah I was like "wtf rock auto hates me". Good to hear summit is legit, haven't heard much about them before! Thanks guys for the help!

 

Ready to head out of town and go get some throttle therapy. Wish I didn't have to work tomorrow....

 

Where you heading?
