    What type of place can be trusted to install the redline struts? I'll be honest and say I don't trust myself to do that mod. Hopefully labor wouldn't cost too much.

    Find a TW member local to you. Install isn't that bad actually if using a good rivet gun. I've done 3 sets.

    TRD Baja Kit with JBA UCA's 1/2 inch spacer on top, Medium Dakars with BAMF hangars and super bumps all around. 285/75/16 Cooper Discoverer AT3 XLT's on graphite TRD faux beadlock wheels. Pro skid powder coated black with Pelfreybilt aluminum mid skid and aluminum gas tank skid.
    Just make sure you have a good rivet gun. I bought one from Advanced Auto parts and it sucked. It locked onto the nail part of the rivet and wouldn't let go. I ended up ruining one of the rivets just trying to get the gun off. I took it back to the store and they couldn't even get it to release the rivet. I'm heading over a friends tomorrow to finish it up. It's easy just measure and mask off the area, mark the holes and drill. Just be careful with the holes on the hood to not go to far in and you will be fine. I used some touch up paint on the holes after I drilled them to keep it from rusting. If you don't feel comfortable then I would do what Siblue suggests and find a local member to help out. I'm sure it can be done for a six pack.

    My wife had the same experience on her Camry at 5000 mi inspection. Car was pulling left after the inspection. Never again inspection. After she came back I changed the oil that was BLACK and sticky. I don't need the dealer's inspection done, I can do all by myself and better.

    Does anyone know a good leveling kit? I'm looking for something not hugely expensive, but not junk either. Plan on doing that and a set of ko2s, which I found pretty cheap.

    There's always wiggle room when there's no accountability and human error.
