    It's from UScargocontrol.com it's the L-track system. I use it all the time. I even tie down two dirtbikes down to it. Very sturdy and extremely affordable.

    Yea could be an inner or out tie rod. But when my inners where bad they just made the truck wander. No noise.

    Could the the spacers aren't sitting flush...idk. Be curious to know what happens when you take them off

    Dude for reals!

    They never wave.

    Then again not many people wave back..


    But a better one!

    Yeah, when I take them off clicking goes away, I thought that too about not sitting flush, but idk why that would matter much. I used sanding paper to knock off any debris this time. And still clicks. Made absolutely sure to tighten lugnuts evenly to center on hub... At a loss. Oh well. Can't even sell em since I don't know whether or not it is the spacer or my truck *shrug*

    Exactly my thoughts :)


    Well... They are 3.75, but betting I will rub super bad when wheeling. I rubbed with 33x10.5" with steering locked with 1.25" spacer and 4.5" stockers.

    I'm running the same setup...

    33x12.50x15 w/3.75" BS

    Doesn't rub up front at all for me if my alignment is the way I want it.

    I sell toyotas so I'm in and out if them all day long. Every time I get into a new car I think "I wonder if these seats would fit my TAco?"
    My favorites are the RAV4 seats.

    My spacers are working lovely despite having flopped the truck, and the wheels explode off it..three times..and living through me driving it.

    Who knew allpro made good wheel spacers? Hahaha

    Well if it's off, then they could be flexing. They are aluminum after all..no idea though really.

    Yea.

    It's still better haha

    It's a good truck...just not race truck. Shoulda kept the race truck...but still. It's a good truck :cool:


    Also



    Shoulda got a 4wd one

    You're an idiot haha
