    Vehicle:
    1999 Prerunner single cab. With a BO7A rear end
    All kinds 3 inch body lift/2 1/2 suspension lift. 31/11 1/2/15 tires All work done by myself for years. The only work performed by mechanic was fuel pumps. I also have a 90 Mustang 350 hp and I can never understand how come my Tacoma gets more respect Just got a 99 Jeep TJ that I rebuilt, and painted in the garage
    When I lifted my PreRunner eight years ago I had to get extended Rancho;s in the back. All the bushings are cracked/broken top and bottom. Kind of stinks that I have to spend thirty bucks to stop all the noise from metal on metal. Anybody have any ideas on where I can get an all purpose bushing

    They lasted eight years....what makes you think the shocks themselves are still good?
    Are you seriously complaining about having to spend thirty bucks on your truck?!

    That's what buying rancho gets you. I'd just get some bilsteins. You can get some for $100 with bushings and all.
