    Just got back from the stealership and they didn't disappoint the stereotype.

    Had my lower ball joints replaced under recall and they "Recommended" I have all sorts of work done that you cannot see unless you tear half the motor apart that I have already done... LOL

    Arrrgh! God I have to make a stickied post for this!

    They had a failed batch back around 2001. Get your VIN and call a dealer, or go to toyotaownersonline.com and register/enter your VIN (no charge).

    I've seen some horrible pics failures on this site. Do this today! They replace for free, and you'll get a free alignment too.

    Built this today. Just wanted a platform for a box in the back of my truck, and it is like having a rear console :D

    Nothing fancy but I like it. Also going to mount my fire extinguisher to it when my mount comes in on Wednesday!

    Crappy pic quality phone shot.

    Yeah my ball joints looked ok, but I didnt want to risk it.

    I called toyota and had the service dept check my vin and it was under the recall.

    Took them 5 hours start to finish.
