    No idea. Smacking your head into the windshield is apparently. Saw an 01 double cab at the pick and pull in El Paso with a smashed windshield plus it was full of sand. Should've worn a gopro there and uploaded footage. That place was wild.

    My last set of OEM lasted 55k lol.

    They may have had life left in them but had noticeable play so I swapped them out

    Weird how unpredictable the damn things are. I could move mine up/down easily with a pry bar so figured better safe than sorry. The new ones don't budge at all when doing the same test

    One time I had my truck jacked up and thought I’d try and test the ball joints, got like a 1/4 of movement. I was scared to put my truck back down until I did some snooping and found it was just the fckd rod ends on my King’s

    About a grand of Honda Civic EJ parts. That specific box had brake rotors and drums.

    Friend’s car. Doing a tune-up for him. I had to tow him home because it had a no crank no start issue. Turned out the clutch was missing the bushing that pushed against the neutral safety switch, so I just grounded the switch with a paper clip.

    That’s what I’m worried about. I don’t know if I should get them replaced.
