    Hey guys,
    Just got back from the dealer where I got my new Cooper AT/3's installed :D.
    However, when the truck was on the lift we noticed that the main wire housing was interrupted before and after the frame right behind the front driverside wheel. We looked at 2 other trucks on the lot and found that they all had the same problem. The dealer made a ticket to Toyota to have the problem corrected. Do you guys south of the border have the same thing or is that just a Canadian thing? The best place to see it is just under the driver's door.

    I'm sure the harness manufacturer is the same for both. It should be fine, but if your anal about it just cover it with some electrical tape or a piece of loom.

    It's going to get sandblasted on the gravel road I run. I will at least put plastic over this for sure. It's exposed in the wheelwell also.

    I would buy a foot of loom material and a couple of zipties and be done with it, oh wait, I can just "borrow" that from my shop :)

    Thanks. It's an easy fix but I was wondering if it was a "standard issue".
