    I never got anything from Amazon in less than 5 days living in Tahoe. Since we moved I last month things have showed up in a day. Mind blown!

    Some claim that 1997 v6 regular cab is the most perfect because it plays better with the TRD super charger for reasons I don't remember (ECU differences probably?), but I'm guessing y'all aren't concerned with that.

    Think one of the wheel bearings is toast on the flatbed. I've been running CAT6 in my house after work all week and cursing the previous owners of this house so I just parked it. If it doesn't have play in the front wheels the CVs need to be rebooted regardless.

    My Ford will be gone in April so I need to possibly fill the void.

    I won't say that the wheel bearings are super fun to do but you can get it done in an evening with the right tools at least.

    This is the one to get. It's in "perfect condition"

    Yeah... I've done wheel bearings on these style front ends ~8 times unfortunately. I have a press and sleeves ready to go, the real issue is the whole truck is falling apart.

    The family 2003 Tundra I passed down to my brother will be coming back to me in the next year or so. I'd love to build a flatbed for it since the bed is toast, 4WD swap, and have a tow rig/beater in one. Then maybe get a manual car to scratch that itch. So if I could just string the flatbed along until then.
