    question for all you 2nd gen tacos with a 3inch lift.... i noticed that when i am turning on round-about ramps to get onto the freeway, my vsc tends to beep and sometimes it causes abs to kick in and lock my front breaks making it extremely scary when driving. ive read that some people brought there trucks in to the dealer to have the vsc re-calibrated but only a few taco members have had success with bringing it in. other members have said its a waste of money. so its 50/50. help please :)

    Yes you need to have the yaw recalibrated. Try places other than the dealer, because the hourly rate is stupid expensive.

    Thanks the reply lembowski. Are there any places you would recommend getting it re calibrated at in San Diego?

    Well, that's not necessarily true about them hating lifts :D. But Yea, after thinking about it, they wouldn't cover it because they could very well prove that your lift caused the VSC to trip more than necessary...so yea...

    On another note...I bet Jason (Speed Freak) could fix that for you, or at least do something along the lines of that to help you (us maybe :D)

    Well, I haven't had the issue yet...but only had the lift on for a few hours :D. My only problem was apparently a couple lug nuts on my front tire were loose...had a bad clunking sound on my way home...got home found 3 nuts were on by a couple threads. ouch...that could have ended badly. Could have just been alignment off, not completely tightened and they loosened up quick, who knows. Alignment tomorrow, hopefully VSC stay's the F in its box :D

    Ok Everyone here is the awesome package deal of a lifetime!!!!

    OK maybe just a package deal. As we mentioned earlier OFFICIAL SIGN UPS for Socal Tacomas and t-shirt orders will be held at the event on Saturday. Here is how it will work: There will be a $20 one-time sign up fee to join the club. Membership will put you on our new e-mail list / club roster so we can contact everyone on upcoming events, as well as allow you to participate in club monthly meets, BBQ's, Runs, etc... It will also INCLUDE a T-shirt and stickers which will be mailed to you or personally delivered (by a good looking member ;) ) We will also be taking orders for any additional shirts you'd like to order, each additional t-shirt will be $15. Also by popular request we will be getting some special "cute" shirts for the ladies same design but with a female cut most likely will be the same price.
