    Toyota did my alignment for $80 bucks and it was better than any alignment shop I've taken it to. I was really surprised

    Thank you! I'll do that caster calculation later today after I pick up a level.

    Rondog, do you know if they'll touch precomas like mine? With a TC kit? Im a little worried about being told they can align it, then end up not "being able" to. Thats not too bad though

    I'm sure they can. They told me they'd try there best since they don't get tacomas like ours very often. I have the TC kit too. Best $80 I spent on an alignment. Most dealerships will match prices so if you decide to go that route, tell them 'XYZ other dealerhip' said they'd do it for $80, can you match? It's worth a shot

    Yah thats a good idea. I just dont have alignment cams, theres limited adjustment on a heim on the lower, and the rest comes from adding/removing spacers for the upper arm crossshaft, so I'm not sure thats something they do. I'll make a few calls today though.

    Hey guys, I am looking for some stock parts that hopefully someone has laying around!
    I just recently bent my passenger side LCA and spindle. Does anyone have any parts they are willing to part with?
    Thank you.

    oh cool, I am low on cash right now so not trying to spend a lot. What would you take for them? Trade? You can send me a PM with the price if you want. I am trying to get the truck fixed asap because it is not driveable.
