    sounds like a suspension issue, something with a ball joint maybe. Check them for play because if it's causing a shake like that I'd bet they're pretty loose if that's the reason

    On another note

    I was given 400+ pages of information to transfer to excel

    so that’s some nice time consuming work at an hourly rate

    Pretty good for intern work. I think I was at $20/hr 4 years ago for electrical and was pretty stoked about that after being at barely over $8 for the previous 5 years

    Looks like whoever did the suspension setup meant to have more weight in the rear. I like second gen runners, I grew up in one. But they're quite possibly the shittiest SUVs Toyota ever made so even this abomination is better than stock.

    yea.. that one didnt make sense either.


    but alot of the trucks got scrapped due to engine troubles before the transfercase was a problem.
