    Had to go to two different shops just for them to get the alignment where my truck was Road worthy. Trust them to weld TC tabs? They used a blowtorch on my truck like 1 week after Toyota replaced my frame, lcas, rear suspension, wiring harness etc. gotta love Firestone

    Real question is why couldn't Toyota align it properly?! Make them buy the mounts, and find someone trust worthy to do the job. New frame or not the TC mounts are light years better than the stock junk.

    It was all fubar when I picked it up... Looked like it got lost leaving a Honda stance party and ended up at the dealership. I put lift spindles on and took it to Firestone. It still pulls right.

    I thought it'd be more functional than the RTT considering my future plan. I have this thread sub'd... I'm always checking in on you guys! It good to come home!

    I debadged it, had to work a whole bunch and put on a K&N in time to deploy. Now my wife controls the money and hopefully I have enough when I get back to get her washed. Soooo... mods are in progress?
    So I asked this a couple of days ago, no response. I am busy building my "at-sea-allowance" build budget for when I get back. Got most of the things I want to have waiting for me covered, just a little shy of my goal though. How much could I reasonably and quickly expect to get when selling 1) Chrome grille/ rear bumper and 2) Factory TRD OR wheels. Just trying to squeeze in the last of my build expenses... for now at least.

    Well its a land Cruiser with a diesel so I've got that going for me.
    Bumper maybe 50 bucks... 100 if it has the OEM hitch

    Wheels with decent tires probably around 400 if the right buyer.

    Thanks. I wasn't expecting much for this stuff at all, so maybe I will just hold onto them for emergency. I am not selling 600 dollars worth of tire to move OEM wheels. Also, my truck has the towing package, so unless you are referring to the cutaway on the bumper (which I would never cut out or use) there is not factory hitch to speak of. Thanks though.

    Just in super lurker mode. Notice this profile was started in 2009 haha.

    It'll be a bit before I go anywhere. As badass as the trailer is, we have a guest room you can use anytime you or your family we in town. Guest room had AC too!

    The OEM towing package is the hitch he is referring to. I got $100 for m OEM color matched bumper, $75 for my OEM tow package hitch, and $300 for just my TRD Off RD 16" wheels (they were in like new condition).
