    Right? This was supposed to be easy lol. I dont think I would be as concerned but with the storm here, I would at least enjoy the peace of mind having my traction control working. Sounding more and more like I damaged a sensor somewhere.

    After cluttering 3 different threads, I got a solution!
    Feeling pretty stupid.
    So apparently when I took off the spindles and tie rods, the wheel got out of alignment. Then during reassembly, we clocked the wheel one full rotation out from zero. So computer was reading it wrong the whole time. They had to reset my wheel back. Problem resolved.

    Cant believe I didnt realize it sooner, but I never have to turn the wheel enough driving to work to realize I was limited on my turning abilities lol.:rofl::facepalm:

    You get lifetime alignments for as long as you own the truck (I don't believe it's transferable to another car if you sell this one and get something else). That's the only "fine print" I can think of. There was a time where I was going every two weeks because I kept messing with my suspension. I got my money's worth out of it in two months.

    Just for a basic terrain. Nothing too serious, something easy without no worries.

    Any suggestion for someone who has never off-roaded? I recently sold my 16 2wd for an 18 4x4 and have yet to put it to use

    This:
    Gorman has the benefit of most trails being predictable. You’ll know you’re headed for a rough ride and still have an opportunity to turn around and try something else. you won’t get stuck on a nasty trail with no way to get out.

    You’ll be surprised though that a stock Tacoma can complete 95% of the trails at Gorman. I’ve seen it happen.
