    Call Toyota of Morristown in NJ and ask for Rich.

    (I think I've typed this 100 times, maybe I should put it in my sig)

    I hear what your saying. I am just saying not to bother with Holman Toyota in Cherry Hill NJ in case some one else was thinking of going there. They wouldn't even attempt to order wheels for me either.

    gotcha.

    Rich can get you Baja wheels, badges, suspension, etc.... will never ask you for a vin or give you any other dumb excuse for not being able to get a part.

    Sorry if it is posted somewhere in the 17 pages, but is there a part number for the brake line extension? Or if anyone not using the one that came with your kit, I'd be interested in tinkering with it. PM me.

    Cool looks like I will be hitting him up. That setup looks real nice by the way. Funny thing is the dealer had a 2013 black Baja sitting on the lot. Truck looked great I just wanted the full bed or I would have bought that truck.

    My local dealership said they couldn't get the kit. Which is why I went to Rich. However, I'm wondering if is only a matter of time, or number of kits Rich orders before Toyota starts asking for the VIN #'s???

    Only saying because other parts website are being denied... I know a dealer is/should be different, but ya never know!

    That is exactly what I was figuring. Now the parts guy in Cherry Hill, Holman, was telling me that corporate is asking for the vin. So I really not sure how long this is gonna last. He also mentioned that their parts distribuitor is in New York so I am assuming its in the same supply chain. I guess only time will tell.

    The kits are actually coming straight from TRD in CA. Rich took the time to call TRD and talk to someone to find out the details on selling Baja parts.

    Most dealers aren't doing that, and just repeat the same rhetoric they're being told from someone who doesn't know.

    That's exactly what my truck does. Slight steering wheel shake between 45-60. Slightly worse uphill. Glad to know its somewhat normal

    Hope this hookup still works in a few months when I finally get my own truck, seeing as how they've discontinued the Baja for 2014.

    Selling the truck. I can get more out of everything by returning it to stock.

    Just a side note....this Baja suspension rides better than the Icons on my 4runner. I will be sad to see it go.:(

    if true the resale value on a 2013 Baja should be even higher.
