Did the u-joints really lack factory lube? Probably never.

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    It was on the main screen and I wanted to see the BS that was going on in here. I made a wrong turn at Albuquerque

    Uggh.

    No Tacomas are leaving the factory with grease right to the U-joint seals. No one sees the grease purge at 1st pump.

    we are either all fucked, or all fine.

    That is my point.

    There’s only one stance someone should have when reading this thread.

    @jberry813 , @NunyaBizness I imagine it's like when your dog eats your wife's wedding ring. You have to pay attention only to have to deal with shit later. Props.

    The BST stuff probably looks like turds with glitter in it. Easy to spot from a mile away. No need to pick it apart

    Thanks for being so much more efficient in explaining things than I was. This is what I was trying to say.

    That's some circular reasoning trap...
    I don't know; shit happens.
    I go by what I can substantiate through personal/common experience and testimony from the manufacturer.
    Explain 'underfilled' transmissions and differentials...
    I think it's enough we agree they do not come filled/purged.

    Let’s make it really interesting and talk about types/brands of grease! Crisco for me. Fortified with moly and lithium of course.

    I like to boil down 3-in-1 oil, add a little red food coloring, a little bit of fresh squeezed baby oil, and a dash of cumin.

    I think you may be confusing cumin with coriander. Coriander has better anti-corrosion inhibitors. The rest of the recipe seems perfect though.

    Actually the cumin is for flavor.

    But I'll definitely add some coriander to the mix, rust is a monster.
