    I'm not sure but airbags might work better for you as sumos have a static height and will not prevent sagging if you have a lift and tow.

    This happened. Kings installed.

    Previously I complained about my passenger side moog boot. Now I'm really Not psyched on my Camburg UCA's

    After adjusting heights boot ripped on the driver side. Lame. Looks like I'll have to get the boot's after all.

    Awesome goodness has a blemish

    I'm at the dealer right now, just got 3rd set of OEM wiper refills (paid once), they finally admit they are OEM and not factory original. My original ones lasted 2 years and 30k miles and barely started streaking but we're still always dead quiet, the OEM "studder" in the rain. Not dry or with washer fluid, but annoyingly so in rain.

    Service manager did not look up, but said factory would probably be only a full blade at $70 each.

    So I guess I'm stuck with aftermarket. I don't need fancy, which ones WORK?

    My family and I have had really good luck using Trico blades. We get them at wipers123.com and they have been great to do business with!

    I personally like Rain-X ones. I need to get a replacement on mine as well. Original factory ones are still on after 1.5 years/23,000 miles/

    Thanks, I'm adding the brackets for more support. They came standard on the newer X runners and they are now standard on some 3rd gen's.

    It is simple. I ordered one from Bob, but because I already had the temp and compass in the overhead console, I just got an autodim/homelink and tapped into the map lights for power. If you want the temp in the mirror, you just have to run the wiring for the included temp sensor to the engine bay in front of the radiator.
