These models are kinda eh, they're AAM axles not Dana so parts are less common and decidedly not as strong.

 

... id imagine their still plenty strong enough

 

Still cheap and stronger than ours at least, but could be hard to fit up and make steering shafts work.

 

Ditches and hazy lights, not immediately impressed by caliraised lights, but it’s also not dark so that may change

 

I need to dehaze my lights on the IS, they're just starting to get a bit cloudy.

 

awwwww... the county sent out a reminder notice

cool!

 

Wow a stock tacoma... not something im used to seeing on this site

 

@cruiserguy and @Empty_Lord

What do you guys use to remove the big c-clips that are on LC100 ball joints? I have some knurled end c-clip removal pliers that are great for the smaller c-clips. I will need something that would span a couple of inches.

 

Those are the kind I work around with two screwdrivers usually

 

The lock ring pliers are great.

 

If not rusted a pick tool to pull one side out of its groove than use a flathead to work the rest out works

 

Yeah I use a couple picks on those big ones

 

These Proton pliers work great for the uppers. The lowers are way too big. I remember using a couple of screwdrivers on some big Twin-I-Beam ball joints years ago. Though I'm about to forget what I did.

 

I’ve got a massive pair of snappy ones

 

These are supposed to open 2"

 

I was gonna suggest the same thing as Speedytech

 

Looks like wha to have
