    Yep, but that happened only for the 20 miles that I needed an alignment.

    Idiot by where I live gave me a love tap and happened to knock out my alignment, which caused the rubbing that you see there. Never happened again after I got it aligned.

    Hit a local pick and pull- got the 4wd knob from a 4Runner and the shift knob from a RAV4 for $10 total. Try that.

    Well I got the bottom of the tire even with my hitch, good enough for me.


    Also swapped the drivers exterior door handle for the metal one I’ve had in the back seats for a couple months. It was on the verge of breaking.

    Finished flushing the system and filled with Toyota Red. Everything seems fine except I'm seeing my AC compressor pulley (not the idler) is wobbling pretty significantly. So I guess I didn't do a good enough job at getting the new bearing in. Will have to look at that later as well as sourcing a new clutch just in case it's too far gone.

    My passenger side has started to fade, I don’t if trim restorer will fix it or not.
    Not really too worried about it though.

    Replacing my front lower ball joints today. Just got the wheels off, is there anything I should clean while they're off?
