    You have to be very careful buying some of these parts off eBay,

    There are fake parts sold all over eBay that are fake in toyota boxes and tags,

    I bought an MAF and it said OEM was in a Toyota box,

    IT WAS FAKE,

    THIS seller has 3 reviews that say this buyer is selling counterfeit parts,
    Beware,

    It’s an expensive and big project to do and the last thing you want are aftermarket parts

    I was going to say something, but figured it wasn't worth it....

    If you really want TRUE OEM parts, the eBay kits from aircabinman on eBAY have been proven by hundreds of members on this site as authentic. Any other kits, I'd be weary of.

    On some you can, depends on the store. Another option is to go to your local region here (top left > forums > region) and ask if anyone local has the tools you need. Most people are pretty helpful on here. I have everything if you happen to be in Central Oregon (not likely).

    Well Thank you. I am in Casper, Wy. Posted a Shout out- Might be a fellow Tacoma person here. Just bought a 2002 4wd Ext Cab TRD, 190,000 miles. It looks like everything has never been replaced! Very Clean.

    So I know Timing belt, U+L BJS, bushings, etc. What do you think of 2881s /5100 0 setting- What rear replacement leafs do you think would give a slight rake + NO SQUEAKs?
    Still have your good looking Tacoma ?
