    Triangulated you get even more travel, but you lose dampening. With vertical it's vice versa. Little bit less travel, but you keep the dampening ability.

    Ah word. I have a Kobalt one but it came with better built stickers all up in it. I had to adjust my strikers too every once in a while. I can sit on mine and not worry about bending but I would probably be hesitant to stand in the middle of it durability wise.

    Thanks for the heads up. I've been hitting them with PB blaster for a day now and will continue to do so until the O2 sensor arrives.

    I should just get two replacement nuts from the hardware store. I'll call the dealership to find out the size, etc. According to this write up: http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/1st-gen-tacomas/194366-how-replace-o2-sensors.html

    it's 12mm

    Just one for now.

    I contemplated doing both at the same time, but Jon persuaded me not to.

    Yeah, yeah... I don't know why I listen to him either. :notsure:
