    not all have experienced this. Shit was driving me nuts. Had a buddy tack it for me and the tack came undone. I could immediately tell it had came off. Now shes solid.

    Not enough to have a build thread.
    I noticed it a lot in the snow when the ruts are steering you more than you're steering yourself.

    Awesome to see where your Taco came from to where it is now. I have an 04 double cab as well that I bought about 2 months ago and absolutely love it. Hopefully mine will look similar to yours one day!
