    It’s different. I think I need to bring it back. It makes noise over bumps. And the floor board kinda vibrates more than I remember

    Edit: maybe I’m just used to a new Tundra at this point. Floorboard vibs seem as it was before I think. However, I noticed it’s not s noise over bumps, it’s a noise in the steering. I called lia and they’re going to correct it on Monday.

    To many, but never done
    Yeah I've heard a few people that needed to go back to get a little tweak done here and there.

    Yep.
    No.

    Per the warranty enhanced sticker: "The coverage offers the latter of 12 years from the Date of First Use (DOFU) or January 31st, 2019.

    For example, my 09 DOFU is August 25, 2008. So I have till August 25, 2020 to get it inspected.

    The 2019 date is just grandfathering/extending the earlier (05, 06, 07, 08) years.

    I'm guessing your 2010 has till 2021 something.

    Yep.
    Curious what they say or find.

    :popcorn:

    No problemo. Purchased date will almost always be later than the actual DOFU. If you haven't, go to Toyota Owners, create an account and enter your VIN. It's a great tool for all toyota vehicles. You will find your DOFU in there, under vehicle specs :thumbsup:.

    Spent most of today putting my bumpers, winch, rock lights, bed speakers, reverse lights, license plate lights, sub, amp, and a few other things back on. Still have to wire up the fog lights and lift bar again. Lots of work done, lots of work left to do. I think I’ll finish it tomorrow.

    Just got my truck back again. All fixed. I guess a bushing was out of place.

    Yep.
    No one and not enough :laugh:

    Judging by the piles of frames every time I drive by, my local dealership has performed their fair share of swaps. They should have it nailed down by now.

    :evil:

    Are you hinting the fact that you work at Del Toyota? Cause if you did, that would be fucking outstanding lol

    I would then in fact know someone, and whoa... look at this money I just found :cookiemonster:
