    It'll take your ECU a little while to relearn. A few start ups, drives, and shut downs will help it.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    What are you experiencing? Wheel bearing s can present themselves a few ways.

    Feels like I’m going over rubble strips when off the gas while under 30 mph, front passenger side.

    Cv boots been torn for a minute or two also, maybe that has something to do with it?

    Is it pretty consistent with low RPM, it could be a misfire.

    But it doesn’t happen when idling in Park? Spark plugs and wires are getting to be about 2 years old.

    Wasn't that bad. Found a video on you tube which I followed a little. Maybe about 30 minutes. However, I overtighted the center nut and had to do surgery again.

    Not at all! Love it. But wanna try this to keep my gear drier and less muddy. Not sure I'm gonna like it honestly..

    Yeah damn school..haha next time we will hang out in the woods!

    Actually think it'll be fine. Only thing I'm worried about hitting is my table actually.


    Mismatch man!!

    For now.

    If I try it and love it I'll do a full restoration on it and paint it. Otherwise I'll just sell it.

    Yes!

    But other truck it'll fit great.
