    I got estimates ranging from $900 to $1,700 for just the ring and pinion swap plus new bearings/seals, no locker or anything like that. I was surprised that the few local shops that specialize on Toyotas were the most expensive.

    My partner and I bought 13 outboard motors, a triple axle trailer, and a tire yesterday. I broke 3 of the 6 lugs removing a wheel/tire off of that triple axle trailer when its bearing started smoking while going down the freeway.

    Afterwards I bought another boat. My Tacoma worked all day yesterday.

    Anybody ever experience a faulty SPC upper ball joint? Put new ones in and the passenger side won't hold grease and is grinding whenever the suspension flexes. Tried changing out the greaseable valve and checked the boot, no tears anywhere.

    Yeah I have about 1" lean on stock suspension, with my lift on the way I am fretting it.

    Maybe a 1" or 1/2" block on the driver side in the rear? Do you have a 1/4" or 1/2" spacer on the driver front already?

    That’s more than a taco lean.. you sure everything is on correct? Leaf spring locating pin dropped in properly on the passenger side?
