Do a favor? Look up lower ball joint for a 99 Toyota Land Cruiser. Who makes it? Oh you don't stock them huh? What parts do you stock for those 100 series Cruisers?

 

Ball joint for a lc? You don’t need that

 

"That's good to know. What I'm really here for is to get my battery tested. Also my mom has a '97 Accord....LX.

No, LX I said. Yeah, is that a 2.0 or 2.4?

No I don't need to get any parts.

Did the battery test ok?

Ok thanks"

 

He's just pulling your typical autozone customer lol

 

No I don't, it's strictly out of wanting to know who makes the parts that are in that duralast box. I'm guessing Sankei/555.
Its a good thing, I'm curious if Chinese manufacturers are making anything for the Cruisers yet. I don't think they are still. Just not enough of a market here in US. Chinese factories only setup tooling and manufacturing for parts they can move thousands of

 

Dude, no fucking way.

I decided to actually open the package...she got me PlayStation gift cards ($50), reeses peanut butter cup candies (the heart shaped ones and all, I love reese's), cologne, a mug, and a little stuffed animal

 

Actually I was curious lmao but you did nail the typical customer there

 

Dawg, that's a woman that pays attention to what YOU like, not what she wants you to like. What a studette. Tell her your Tacoma homies think she's a studette and recognize she actually put some thought into her gift for ya

@Wulf you in Mee-ah-mee yet??? Chilling in sun on beach on 75 degree weather and 75 degree ocean temps....I'm a jelly donut man

 

Man...the younger me would've fucked this all up. Glad I'm older and can appreciate this shit

 

hahah, I'll post it man. I'm on VPN

 

None that ive looked up for my moms truck

We have the entire control arm (no brand) for $150 after tax

just the no brand ball joint for $55 or a 555 ball joint for $157 after tax

 

When your friends tell you they have an extra room, they’ll pay for gas and intoxicate you do you really have any other option besides “yes”?

 

That whole control arm with ball joint is 555. You got a pic of the 55 dollar one? Or not in stock? That sounds like it might be our first cheapy Chinese parts for these 100 series. Online website might show pics too huh? I'll check

 

You just kinda have to go with the flow man. I think that means 'yes'

 

@CS_AR
So I was looking at the pics of the ball joints from various retailers and they all sell that 555 lower ball joint which is good. Check out this 12 dollar one! And it's just a 555 made in Japan joint I might get a couple I know I'll have to do then sometime

But I see the Chinese crap has made its way in. That mevotech is Chinese and I see on the Autozone site there is lower ball joint for our 100s that is made of a polycomposite, instead of steel
Couldn't find any manufacturer info on it though. But I think it's gonna be Chinese junk too.
Rockauto has the hookup right now! At least the picturw of the 12 buck one is a 555

 

heard on the radio this AM that the average person in a "new" relationship (under 6 months) spends $700 on their SO on Valentines Day...WTF. That can't be right

They also said the average person married more than 10 years spends an average of $40 haha. That's about as much as I've always spent.

I've never been with a girl that's obsessed with jewelry, any guy that is has my sympathy.

 

I can believe it

 

Me neither. But it makes sense we haven't. We would have picked up on it while dating, that shhhtuff goes hand in hand with other 'characteristics' that are complete red flags.
