    I found a local shop to install my bushing. They did a great job. Much improvement but I still have some vibrations. Taking it back next week and we're going to check the front end.

    Did you check driveshaft angle? I know some folks have installed a carrier bearing drop/spacer kit (it's literally a couple of plates and two bolts) takes 5 minutes to install yourself...just crawl under truck. It's less than $20...might be worth a try.

    I just put 265/75/16 KO2s on my taco Friday, no issue with noise over the weekend. Then did a level today, at about 150 miles after install and a hum showed up between 30-40MPH. No noise with 4hi. I'm glad I found out what might be causing the issue. I'll be calling ECGS for more details.

    IMG_2662.jpg Any of you guys see anything like this when you replaced the seal? It's like a really rough groove inside the seal housing.

    I didn't replace my seal. No leaks after about 4,000 miles.

    You should be fine. My understanding is the extra lip is just to keep you from damaging it on install. I wouldn't worry about it.

    Hey @Jpowell, do you still need the removal tool? PM me if you do. If not, the tool I got from @justdoit is available for the next person. Thanks again @justdoit!

    Just finished buttoning my suspension back up. Took her for a drive, and wow what a difference! It feels even better than before my lift!

    Installed the ECGS bushing on friday. 2013 TRD Sport with Bilstein 5100 set to level the truck. Vibe gone, another happy taco owner thanks to you guys.

    I have the install tool, will sell for half price to someone in canada. I'm on Vancouver Island, will ship elsewhere.
