    OK, so what happened to all of the hub assembly posts and my photos from 2015? Where is the thread for BamaToy1997 orders? Is there a new thread, is he still selling awesome Tacoma hubs? He even quoted my praise "Baja Proven" on his website. I don't see a link for his site...?
    @BamaToy1997
    Just fyi, the hub assembly that BamaToy1997 sent me and the install by Speed Freek have been great! I want to use his again if the passenger side ever fails me.

    Jason,
    Thanks for doing a fantastic job on my cmc. These are pictures that I took. The first image shows a before and after. The top image shows the cmc done by Jason, the below image shows the work that was done by a local reputable shop. You can clearly see Jason did a far superior job than the shop.
    This is why I 100% reccomend him.

    Not sure if he’s still selling them. There are two threads in the 2nd Gen Parts thread that are active. One guy is out of HI, the other NJ. I just bought a set from the guy out of HI and they worked like a champ.

    The set I bought from Bama are finally giving out (at least driver) pretty sure he had some child porn case against him that a TW member exposed and the monitors pulled his thread and deleted all the posts related as it was really ugly. His thread had a lot of good info and I was happy with the assemblies I bought from him as well...

    I saw that stuff and his response that it was made up... and the moderators removed all the off-topic stuff to keep the thread about the hubs. He is still posting here and I was hoping to hear from him, as well. Thank you!

    Hey there @Speed Freek, I am having a heck of a time finding a decent angled tire carrier that can mount to the header rail (opposite tailgate). I was looking at N-Fab bed rail carriers, but apparently they aren't available for 3rd gen (I have a 2018 short bed). Do you do any fabrication work? Thoughts? Also looking at bolt on sliders any day now.

    I dont have my larger fab stuff set up here yet from scratch, but I can more easily modify something you already purchase and make it work

    I understand.... I have both.... golfers elbow and tennis elbow on both right and left. So inner and outer parts of the elbow just ache. Best therapy is to ice them down every night. :thumbsup:
    Let's not even talk about shoulders and rotator cuffs.:anonymous:

    Oh I know, I have artificial tendons in my right shoulder and Titanium over the bone as a saddle, I know all too well. Motorcycle racing is tough on your body...or mine anyway, lol. I've had over 6 major surgeries over the years all over from injuries and a hernia which was more congenital..

    Ice helps in the eve but stretching seems to help even more! It tough to find the proper stretches but I have a few figured out that really seem to concentrate on the particular tendons that are affected. Its quite annoying to say the least.
