    Got one method 502 in today to test fitment, glad to say it fits well. Now time to order the rest and get them mounted

    Following this thread here i pulled my collum and welded the shaft together to remove play i had in my wheel. The Trucks steering feels so mich tighter now, now just to rotate my tires and get an alignment and to get rid of my slight pull to the left

    This was a great write up and just finished my 10 second install! (after six months of living with hyperflash). :)

    Novita EP35, $12.49 at O'reilly's today. Side by side pictures attached.

    On my 2001 Tacoma V6 xtraCab at least, there is an extra 10mm bolt on the frame side of the fuse box that had to be removed before I could get to the flasher.
