    I’ve used that seller before and had no issues. Could also check Amazon for top hats..

    Would like to plan a maintenance day this Sunday if you like and get all your parts. My inner tie rods should be here by then. If not I may hit the dealer Friday.

    Good morning Harry and CT!:hattip:

    Sorry. Edited the post. I checked RockAuto and they had them so I grabbed them. Those should arrive Thursday. I don't know why I didn't think about RockAuto to begin with.

    Now to look at brake parts.

    I have to look through my box of parts. I may have the seals. I haven't received tracking on the hubs yet so it doesn't look like this Sunday.

    Cool, he’s not that far away from us. I’m also installing a pair of his hubs. I won mine at AOAA:D. If by chance he ships them by tomorrow pm you might have them… I’ll be wrenching either way so if you have your stuff the offer is open.

    I don't have axle seals. I'll order those today from Toyota.

    If I don't work on the front end, I have electrical stuff to do.

    The weather up there is looking nicer this weekend.

    And the postal worker got stuck on our driveway and needed a tow truck this morning. In the process blocked my wife from leaving the house and was late to work.

    Being, most likely, one of the only TW members who has graced your driveway,.......i am seriously not surprised...especially with a ice storm shit show as this one was, the postal service needs road spokes in their tires to attempt the precipice that is your driveway.

    Sounds like me and my neck / arms . Sometimes I can’t move my arms when I wake up :annoyed:
    Albany bone and joint surgeon says my left shoulder is beyond repair and needs a full replacement. :eek: Even my elbow hurts on the left side now .
