    Question for y'all...
    Would there be a market for 304 stainless steel bumpers? 304 will not rust and would not need painted at all. I could ship it sandblasted and it would stay looking great for a long time. Cost is more than a standard bumper, but for guys in the salt belt it would be fantastic. I could also do skids in 304.

    I saw your thread about the rear bumpers . Since I really wouldn't have to worry about salt here in the southeast and I would get the bumper bed-lined, when the funds permit I would be interested in the original material.

    It's a code on the door jam sticker. But every TRD with the e-locker has 4.10s.

    Replaced front O2 sensor, replaced muffler Saturday and now looking into replacing the power steering rack which I'm not excited about. Replacing both struts this weekend (then an alignment after this and power rack). Also a small Oil Pan leak. This summer will be switching out all the diff fluids

    Dirt or dust? Try using dust off or something. Possibly water got in there? You could take it out and see if there is anything visible going on on the outside and wiring too. Fully unplugging it and thereby doing a hard reset might do the trick. Suppose you could just disco the battery for a bit to same effect...
