    Already done. I don't see any movement. I mean other than that side's IFS going up and down. My guess is it's something UCA related and it vibration is heard down by the LBJ. Haven't test the LBJ for play yet, largely because I do not have a prybar/crowbar.

    How many miles are on your LBJ'S? If they've been replaced, what brand went it? Once the suspension is unloaded, after jacking up by the frame, check the play in them. Are you already familiar with that, using a prybar or big @$$ screwdriver?

    On prybars I'm okay suggesting just the cheapies from harbor freight. I've abused the piss out of em. They've held up. They have a set of like 3, I think, maybe 4. Fairly priced.

    My LBJ were done back in '06 as part of that recall. so they are only slightly newer then the rest of the truck. I will check them eventually. I'm done doing shit today.

    Hey, at least I got one like! Ha. I didn't know how much shit I had in my truck...my god. I could have started a surplus store on the trail selling propane, paracord, motor oil, shop towels, lighter fluid, PB blaster, brake fluid, shackles, antacids, deodorant, and old French fries.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    An image taken with a crappy camera still has merit as a good picture. Framing, lighting, subject.... You just won't have amazing quality

    Check Build thread
    When wheeling in some red rock today (moab like material) and broke off a plastic fender flare. Anyone got the link to the annoying little plastic clip like pieces that hold them on?:anonymous:


    Also may need new motor mounts..it appears to be moving around quite a bit but not sure if its still in “spec” for the amount it moves

    I know this has been asked over and over :crapstorm:BUT I am about to do the Tundra brake upgrade and need advice. I know this sounds stupid but If a wheel will fit a Tundra it should also fit on my 2000 Tacoma with the Tundra brake upgrade? :notsure::anonymous:

    Mine moves all over the place, you'll know if it's actually screwy when it starts moving around on the street a lot. There's a lot of driveline torque in 4low and crawling situations so the drivetrain moves a bit.
