2008 TRD Offroad Frame replacement

I considered Classic but they are much further from home. Pauly in Crystal lake promised to work with me

 

Just out of curiosity, whats the estimated time frame theyre giving you for the swap? My dad started the process on his 08 last Friday.

 

4-6 weeks for the frame to arrive. Then 3-4 days for the swap. Very long time What did they tell your dad?

 

Bout the same but I think theyre hoping for 4 weeks as thats all they gave him on his rental for now. Rental is a '19 4Runner Trd off road. Gonna be hard transitioning back into the 08 lol.

 

Also gonna be hard to stay on the pavement. Lol

 

That’s awesome OP, Way to stick it to the man.

 

Hi Mitch. Are there any other dealers you can take it to? Seems like they make a good dime on the jobs.

 

Awesome thread!

 

I just called a dealer today to get an appointment for a frame inspection. Had to schedule two weeks out. The lady told my that she had 40 frames on order! And that they do one a week.

 

That's a lot of frames. I saw a few new ones out back at one of the dealers I went to. There's gonna be a lot of freshened up trucks out there.

 

Thats for sure! I hope to get a new frame. Would be sweet!!!

 

This is why my dad wanted me to go and perform my own inspection before he wasted time at the dealer. Failed the weld chipping hammer test.

 

Is that on the 2008 Tacoma?

 

yes

 

Will you be taking it in and attempting to get it replaced?

 

Oh Wow. We may inspect it further before we take it in. We have two weeks.

 

Excellent I wish you good luck

 

Its sitting at the dealer now waiting on the new frame.

 

Any idea how long it will take for the frame to come in?

 

4-5 weeks
