    Having a weird issue with my auto shifter. When I put it in park, I have to give it a second bump for it to click in place. Anyone got ideas on why that would be?

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    Worn out linkage bushings be my guess, @Brice sells some

    Good to know. Think I've ruled out wheel bearing at this point which is reassuring. Now I know what kind of sound to expect in the event of a wheel bearing going out.

    It comes and goes, but typically shows up at slower speeds so it's likely it's a rock or something in the brakes like what you're saying.

    Door checks on the remaining 2 doors and installed the other metal door handle.

    It was dusty as hell behind the door panels

    I need to do my door checks one of these days. Having my doors constantly close on my legs or back gets old

    The 3rd door was the smoothest, I drilled both tack welds without drilling through the second plate and it popped apart on its own. The other 3 needed encouraged with a hammer
