    I'm going to pull it off and return it to you. I have a TC+2 kit waiting to be installed. After I get the truck and DD car home, I'm going to disassemble the front end and pull off both spindles. If I fucked up the welds on the driver side the passenger side is fucked as well.

    Because that kit uses the same stock spindles

    Yeah I know they use the same spindles, I already have the kit on hand. No idea about gusseting right now. I want to know what went wrong with the driver side first, there are a couple tacomas in local scrap yards I'll look there first before I drop big bucks for a new set.

    Thank you, it'll be interesting to see what went wrong with the spindle gusset welds.

    Too much to list, but enough to get me in trouble. Repeatedly.
    Oh, I know all about tired driving. Drove OTR for a decade. I pull over and nap as needed......or in the case of right now, grab breakfastlunchdinner.

    get with the San Diego peeps, someone down there has a spindle kit that is way better than the TC and All Pro's version in my opinion. I just can't think of who at this moment..
