    That is a very good price, I hope they get it right the first time.

    Tacoma rear axle seals can be tricky. And don't let them tell you it's ok to re-use the old bearing. If you were leaking oil onto the brakes, or even a little bit out of the end of the tube, that bearing is compromised. And so are the brake pads if they got oiled.

    The dude seems like he knows what he’s talking about, bearing was 85 and the seals around 10 each if I remember right.

    All the reviews I’ve read are golden. I hope it’ll all be good.

    97 Tacoma Extended Cab. 3.4L
    Original Tacoma: 6" lift, air bags in the rear, 17x9.5 XD Series rims w/ 35" Cooper STT Pro tires. Body Armor rear bumper with swing arm tire mount, TRD Exhaust, URD True Cold Air intake, TRD Front Brakes, RIGID INDUSTRIES grill and LED bar installed in it, LED Rear Lights, TracRack rack system, tool box. Sold the truck. Bought 2016 ram 2500 Laramie diesel. (7/2016) Picked up 97 Tacoma 4x4 Extended Cab 3.4L. Building motor now. (8/2017)
    Corbeau sells brackets. I did have to by nutserts, as two of my original mounting nuts broke off. Not sure why, by I think previous owner removed the seats several times to route stereo equipment and broke off the nuts. Hope I can nutsert it and not weld in nuts. Otherwise will weld them in.

    I know this isn’t exactly related to the thread but I found out why Allpro is being a shade tree.

    They’re venturing out and working on a side business.

    thanks, that thing is smoked! i need to put a new one on there. also need to take off the red bar since im not expert. That was my dads red bar from when he owned the truck and was racing. Ill be at Taft, CA this weekend setting up the course for our Grand Prix next weekend. :bananadance: Once the truck gets its new legs installed, im gonna focus on getting the race and practice bikes rebuilt. Both have blown top and bottoms. :mad:

    Bolted d rings to the top of my toolbox. One in each corner so four total. Don't have pics (no camera and new phone)

    The aluminum tool box is too thin to hold significant weight from flopping around, but it's good for light stuff I guess.
