Calling all Toyota owners in the Lynchburg and Charlottesville and surrounding areas!

Yep, that's my recommendation. Even if it appears tight, tighten them down anyway. Also recheck the LCA bushings, and top plate bolts to see if that helps, is it just driver side or both up front? Sway bar could be hitting skid plate from loose linkages too.

 

Thanks fellas I'll check this out once I decide to stop being lazy and get up.

 

Frank did you use my stock coils on those shocks you put on?

 

Ew

 

thats what 11 years of wear and tear looks like

 

Would anyone know the valve stem size on the TRD Sport wheels? I wanna take the tpms off them and put regular valve stems in that set. Then the tpms set on my f-5s. I went to the auto shop on post and asked for valve stems (I thought valve stems were universal size) the guy laughed and said "what size?" I've googled it, but no luck with a definite answer.

 

Good idea

 

They have lengths that range from 3/4" to 2 1/2", probably an 1 1-2" is what's on ours, never measured it though, just tell them to put some rubber ones on and switch your tpms to the other wheels.

 

Luke needs some plasti-dip in his life.

 

Well it's weird as hell but this is how my truck looks like till tomorrow afternoon when I'm throwing the rear ones on and maybe a few extra things not sure yet. And here's a pic of the old ones I had on they were rough and really soft.


Not sure if you can tell the difference but it's there

 

Bro'd out Frank lol, green machine will look good once the rears go on!

 

Yea man it actually raised it up quite abit and now I don't rub at all at full lock. It's great but at the same time not because the of that sound I'm still hearing it and checked it all out earlier so idk. I'm baffled or maybe I'm jut an idiot and over looking something.

 

Gonna look good, Frank!

 

Frank you never said what side the clunk is from, front? And is it driver side only or both?

 

It's the front and I'm pretty sure it's just passenger side and only when I hit a good size bump or hit some washboards at stop lights.

 

You are making me believe your noise issue is coming from the strut itself. Please go make sure you installed the washer on the shock piston body before putting the upper cap on. It's a common mistake and can cause shock damage immediately.

 

I don't think that's it but I guess I'll throw it back up on the jacks tomorrow when I put my rears on just to make sure it on right.

 

did you use my coils on those sturts? or did you use yours and get a spring compressor

 

Used mine and used spring compressors. Brandon now that I'm looking at it I think I may have. Son of a bleep bleep bleep. Dammit this blows guess I'll have more to fix tomorrow than I though imma throw the rear on first and then fix the front.

 

That's what it sounded like to me, seen it before and it reminded me when we were getting Taylor's springs switched.
