38,000 miles 4 leaking shocks and leaking power steering pump

I'm calling Bs on all 4 shocks leaking. If they are its your own fault because I'll bet if they are, then they were at 35k while still under base warranty.

Who's your tech? Small garage owner? Buddy? Dealer?

 

1. found out about problems after the fact. 2.4 cyl. 3. manual trans. 4. no bilstein shocks

so how is it my fault they were leaking,oh because they were leaking while under base warranty,that makes sense

 

and what stuff is that?.

 

the whole point of this was to inform people about these problems, and i hope i did that. now all you brave new toyota queers can attack me for pointing out a problem with this truck its not going to offend me like you obviously are.

 

You need a thicker skin around here. Also need notarized documentation to prove issues are real.

 

We just have a hard time believing that all four of your shocks are leaking. Not one. Not two. Four. There is no logical reason this should happen, unless you're out driving your truck really really hard off-road. It also doesn't help that you haven't even seen these leaky shocks yourself and refuse to go out a snap a pic of said shocks.

I drove my stock OR to the Race Track and back, 54 miles of terrible wash board in Death Valley, and the shocks didn't leak

 

They maybe made for that....Just saying hehe!

 

I raced 1/10 off road for along time and my hand is quite good at temperature between 100 and 200F. The shocks were nearly 150F each time we stopped. No leaking

 

Ouch!
Thanks for the field report King, it's great to hear them and to know what these trucks are capable of.
Wish we could get more like that, because I myself truly admit to being a bit of a chicken when it comes to testing near the limits!

 

How did the stock wranglers do (besides not leaking) out at the racetrack in DV? Pics of the adventure?

 

Thanks for bringing the shock situation to our attention. As soon as I got to the point in your post where you start talking about calling the corporate complaint hotline I'm falling asleep..

 

My feelings are leaking

 

from which orifice?

 

I already know toyota corporate is going to say "we knew nothing about this"

 

Lol. Is your name Todd Packer?

 

You mean the tires? I had them down to 15psi and it was still a very rough ride. I tried going faster but there were too many rocks. I did 20-25mph most of the time. It was terrible. We didn't do anything more than dirt roads. We did Titus Canyon, as well.

you can see how low the tire is and all the rock marks on the sidewall

How could they? OP claims to have an extended warranty but has instead chosen to cry on our shoulders instead of taking it to a dealer. Diagnosing 4 leaky shocks and a leaking PS pump isn't rocket science. It seems to be a difficult thing for OP to do for some reason...

 

He used to play for the green bay packers!
