    Frame swap likely. Sux. But a necessary evil sometimes.

    Really I was just pointing out that all generations have their issues. FWIW, I’d only buy a used 1st or 2nd Gen with a new frame.

    Oh, I wasn't saying anything bad, just saying it looked like it might be a frame swap, and that some 2nd Gens have to have that done. I'm active on a couple threads that are 2nd Gens and it's not a lot, but I have seen it.

    I have no reason to dis anyone on The World. Just not in my DNA. :thumbsup:

    Also check out @Rob Daman he has a video on YouTube about this and the 10 minute fix. I have the same rub. It sounds a lot worse than it is.

    Edit - saw you got the rub after adding UCAs, sorry. Likely not what I'm suggesting above. Definitely what I posted below :thumbsup:

    But like @20tacoma17 said, adjusted castor will also fix it.

    Yea I’ve been happy that I’ve joined, and really hoping it’s a caster issue. Al if it keeps up I may need a wheel spacer. Current rims are 17 x 8.5 +7

    Yeah, I think that positive offset is the culprit. First determine where the rub is. Then take steps. If you plan on wheeling and you find that an alignment will fix it, consider a place that offers lifetime jobs for a set price. If memory serves, Firestone will do that for $180. I think. To me, considering wheeling can force realignments, that's a small price to pay.

    If not, ask others with the same setup as you what they did. A lot of guys run spacers. Don't skimp on them. You want something reliable when it comes to this. I'm sure you're not the only member on here with your setup. Just reach out :thumbsup:

    Am I the only one that was waiting on punctuation? Understand the frustration, but seems like a lemon more than a typical toyota

    There's a whole tires and wheels section. Just search first, a lot, to keep the tools at bay. So you can tell them you did. :D
