    Yeah with a flatbed AC and a double cab the cap is worthless to me. Still might ask him for more pictures of it.

    Hopefully my buddy will loan me his truck and trailer. I pissed his girlfriend off pretty bad today.

    That's right. I still own the Tundra until I can sell my brother's stupid Mercury Mariner. Cheapest trailer hitch would be an OEM at the local yard. But someone told me those are terrible to install.

    Thats what i was thinking as well. I need someone who knows suspension to give my front end a look. Pretty sure i need to replace some stuff here soon. I’m at 210k. I have zero play when cranking on it with a pry bar though.

    If the lowers are leaking the uppers probably don't look too good either.

    I'd look into upper ball joints, lower ball joints, sway bar end links, tie rods, and control arm bushings. Might not need it this second but if you're doing both the upper and lower ball joints might as well look into everything while you're in there.

    I have an OME lift but I’m running stock uppers. I wonder if I should just get some SPC’s and call it a day. I don’t off-road much. Mostly flat desert stuff. My tie rods are for sure close to worn out. Two years ago when I did my lift the tech said I had some play in them.

    look like old 5" headlights someone just shoved in there to make up for likely a lack of OEM headlights.
