    Yeah I used to drive about 100 miles a day and then a bunch of thing happened that let me make some lifestyle changes like quitting that job and now I work 5 minutes door to door from my house. Which is pretty awesome and my boss is very laid back and will let me work from home on bad weather days sometimes too.

    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    If they're evenly torqued, then that shouldn't be an issue. Torque for those hubs is 83ft#'s, 80ft#'s shouldn't be an issue. One other thing could be the pitch on the lug nut cone, if they were different, that may be a problem. Fund out from the Mfg what pitch lug nut should be used for those rims and they must all match. Only other thing if the wheel isn't sitting correctly on the hub if it were lug centric it could cause that, but you'd have heavy vibrations. You need to check if that rim is hub or lug centric. If it's lug centric, make sure that the cone of the lug nuts are seating in the lug holes of the rim.

    This is what I was thinking. The two broken studs are next to each other which believes me to think there's uneven pressure when the wheel is seated. Why it's on one side and not the other, though, when using the same lug nuts is odd.

    @CarmenSanDiego might be a stretch but is your hub bent? Like Chris said, there isn't a lot of issues that wouldn't cause your truck to bounce like a Vegas girl but something's off here :rofl:

    Just hard to diagnose something without seeing it, it is probably just a fitment issues with the lugs and wheels

    As far as I know the hub is fine but when it comes apart this weekend we will check it all out. If anything on the hub is an issue I'm going to try and get Toyota to cover it under my warranty.
