Getcha some boggers

 

I really like that 9.5 width but I'm worried all the road miles ill do will tear em apart

 

I think you’re just gonna have to go 10.5

 

What are ya looking for overall? size?

 

Yea it's that or get 16" rims.. everybody sells a 235/85 r16

 

Skinny 31s that aren't trailer tires lol

 

Then you could get tUnDrA bRaKeS

 

Welcome aboard new member! Is that the first mod the internets told you to do?

 

Isn’t it mandatory?

 

Only if you want to be able to stop and not kill everyone else on the road ... make sure only OEM tundra parts are used or else your truck will self destruct

 

Well my truck is making a fun pop/suspension clunk when I crank the wheel at low speed, time to do my weekly LBJ check I guess. Might be the ubjs, those have a lot more miles on them

If it's coming from the steering rack I'm gonna be pissed though

 

In all seriousness why tf do some reman calipers (I'm looking at you NAPA) come with a bleeder valve screw that doesn't fit any of my line wrenches. And it's tiny compared to the OEM Tundra caliper screw. Both of mine will be coming out with vice grips and be replaced next bleeding.

 

Just in time for thanksgiving.

 

I have wondered this same thing.. I only have metric line wrenches so I always assumed they were an odd ball standard size like 11/32 or some BS

 

Yup

All the expensive repairs happen around the holidays when I'm already extra aware of my spending lol

 

My truck started making the same noise/conditions you described before you changed your steering rack bushings... I've known I've needed them (because of how much my truck wanders on the road) but this morning was the first time it did the whine like a pump

 

Yeah the weird pump whine went away with new bushings which was weird, I can only guess the play in the rack was straining one of the PS lines

 

Yea it wasn't like any PS whine I've heard on the numerous vehicles I've had in the past... but it was close enough that with your shared experience I knew EXACTLY what it was

 

If the rack is moving around when you turn the wheel you'll know for sure, have the lady turn the wheel while you look or just put your phone under there to film it while you do. Mine was moving a good inch in either direction

 

I don't even need to go that far lol.

My bushings are so bad that as I drive (usually during braking) the steering wheel will turn about 10 degrees of rotation but the truck will stay straight.. then when I take off again the rack will correct itself and veer off in the direction that the wheel is turned.
