    Only tube bumpers I know of in North state are dc fab in Paradise or precision welding in Oroville. Haven't heard of anyone with a good bender to pull off the bends without crimping the tube.

    Damn if you where way north I'd fix them for ya.
    I love breaks. There super simple. But I think you have ether air in that one caliper or it's the caliper it self. I have right front drag and turned out it was caliper. Then on the third gen runner was left front. I changed them and bled them out well and now there great.
    I would try a bleed on just that one and see what the fluid looks like. If it's grey or black bleed the whole system. Just remember don't pump them up to bleed. It's an easy long process of push down and hold then open the bleeder valve. Two people work best.

    Thanks @Whitebutler

    I really appreciate your input. Since I didn't bleed on the install but the FSM calls for it, I was hoping this was my issue.

    Hi, Does anyone have a shop recommendation for an exhaust reroute in the South Bay?
    Thinking about getting that done.
    Thanks!

    I got an angle grinder, basic hand tools, air compressor, basic paint guns, and wiring tools (crimpers, strippers, heavy duty cable cutters up to 4/0) if anyone wanted to use them let me know.

    4 run, 2 don't
    Anyone have the front end service kit?

    Looking to do my lower ball joints next week; figured it'd be an easy task with both pullers.
