    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    It tracks straight aside from the usual drift from road crown but no pull or anything while pointed in the crooked direction. If I hit bumps or brake hard it tracks straight still...its the damn steering angle thats fucked

    Why would it be pulled though :confused:

    Is it possible that I have bent something?

    yes possible, but with no other symptoms, not as likely

    possibly a recall?

    Didn't see it when I was reviewing all toyota service records on my toyota app

    If you don't mind - would we be able to inspect anything that could be bent?

    Is a mod day happening Sunday? I need to put on my airbags and cradles, which I can do, but with proper tools it would be a lot easier and pretty quick

    I'm good for Sunday. I already cleared it with mrsuphillshunter. We're just going to do a day trip to the hills to check trail cams on Saturday and we're good to go on Sunday.

    This is the camping scouting running our asses off time of year, so I'm not going to push it by asking her to cook though... that might get me killed. lol

    @sd1uh8as @roguegs

    My guy with the batteries has been working a lot. So I haven't seen him as much as normal. He was supposed to bring me a battery for @FirstTimeFirstGen Friday, then today, now tommorow morning. So I haven't gotten an update on the batteries for Ivan and Angelo. I should know more in the morning about exactly what's going on.

    David, I will definately have your Red top in the morning.

    I'm hoping you guys are cool with 8:00ish.

    Normally I'd be all about an early start, but by Saturday evening I will have done over 40 miles of hiking in the last 3 weeks.

    Not really in a time crunch either as I don't have an urgent need to install the dual batt. Besides...it gives me more time to get paychecks lol
