    I think he's referring to reducing noises that may sound like ball joints.

    well my buddy Forrest thought the same thing. Before we went down to toyota to get it fixed we took it to my other buddy Ryan. Ryan worked at Rick Hendrick toyota as a mechanic. well he hopped in moved the truck 10 feet then grabbed his star key set and fixed it... Moral of the story is. from my past experience i made a suggestion and it might work. if not you wasted 5 minutes of your time. Not trying to be an ass. just trying to help.:D

    Any of you locals need or want some decent LED's? I posted it as a group buy but honestly i'd rather not be shipping these damn things all over the country and there is not much interest because people don't want to be bothered with opening up a PDF file. Not to mention it would save you money not to need the shipping. They only need 10 lights purchased to qualify for the group buy rates. If anyone local wants some LEDs now is the time, they are made by the same standards as rigids at a much lower price, i'll put the PDF in here. I am going to pick up at least 3 myself, possibly 2 more if payday is kind to me. Let me know if you are close by and would pick up that's cool, if you're not so close perhaps I can meet you somewhere or work out shipping if we must. If I cant get 7 more lights I am just going to scrub the whole thing. Let me know via PM so I don't miss ya.

    What are you going to get? I'm going to pick up 2 2" spots and a 20" bar at least, I was considering going ahead and picking up 2 2" driving as well but money is a bit tight for me as well.
