    Some fuckin douchebag on craigslist stood me up on a camper. Told me after 7pm is when he gets off and to collect. I told him I wanted to take a look, he didn't give me a fuckin proper address, I had to hunt it down. When I finally did I emailed him to let him know I'll be waiting. His fuckin response was that it was sold already.

    They came up in this thread.
    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/amazon-ucas.502240/

    Since they're relatively new on the market for first gens, there's not a lot of feedback from owners available.

    These babies came in the mail today!

    I was working on prepping my A340F for my PreRunner conversion and the mailman saw my truck with the hood opened when he delivered these. He asked me what was wrong with my truck and I said "oh I'm making it 4x4!"

    He looked at me like I was crazy.

    I love how almost all of the thread is them talking down on the 'cheap' Amazon UCA's with 0 actual reviews or experience from anyone who has them...

    It happens with pretty much any product like this when there is a lack of useful information. These are critical suspension parts. Too much risk involved for most people in finding out for themselves how good (or bad) they.

    My thinking is..if I'm going to spend my money to put aftermarket parts on my truck, I'm not cutting any corners. I want quality in regards to the fit and finish and I want a reputable warranty + customer service. I don't want to deal with Amazon when it comes to parts warranty and replacement. I want to deal with the manufacturers. The owner of JBA made it clear right off the bat that the customer is #1 and that's really all that matters to me. Maybe Amazon could offer the same types of things that I mentioned, idk. I just know I did my research and landed on JBA.

    Alright got my Paranoid Fabrications @paranoid56 mount Plastic-Dipped, then got it and the Scan-Gauge put in the ash tray location and plugged in. Happy with the end results.

    No apology needed, I hadn't either a few months ago. Most of the stuff on my wish list wasn't there before I found Tacoma World. I keep hanging out on TW I'm gonna have to get a part-time job.
