Love you Z man!

 

150K on mine. only alignment i've had done was at 110k when they put on a new frame. it drive straight and no odd tire wear. i figure the rust locks everything in place

 

I wouldn't use them if they are tossed, only sober springs for me.

 

Put over 1000 miles on the new front shocks with the old springs/coil over hardware
Running great & the truck feels solid

Crossed 342k miles
350k on the horizon

Next services before winter
1. New tires
2. Rad fluid service/swap
3. Trany filter & fluid swap
4. Rear diff & transfer case fluid swap
5. Sparks swap
6. Engine & cabin air filter swap
7. Maybe the serp belt (or at 375k next summer)

 

You are incredible Z! Love you

 

& another update on the matter-
no alignment needed
at 20mph, 50mph, & 70mph, I am going straight down the road

so you can change front shocks without needing an alignment adjustment
& nothing was seized after 340k miles/7 years on the road

 

They got the million mile tundra on YouTube, need you to be the million mile taco

 

Camber is good too?

 

@Chiloquin_Car_Care what are your driving habits that got you to 340k so fast?

Long distance daily commuter? Mostly highway miles?

 

seems fine
if camber was off, would it affect straight driving? braking? cornering?
I am experiencing excellent braking, cornering, & straight line driving
it was all pretty good before the front shock swap, & now feels like new

 

mostly highway back & forth between oregon & cali

 

there is a guy with 1.3 million+ miles on his tacoma (2007 I think)
I will never catch him
& I am getting a new truck at 500k bud
10 years in one truck is enough for me

appreciate the comment though!

 

You can have either Positive or Negative Camber. You'll drive straight and all but you can have uneven tire wear. You won't notice the camber being off. Few degree's either way won't be as noticeable as the top right corner of the picture shows.

 

Oh man, guy must be in it all day

 

Keep driving the piss out of that thing, awesome!!! I’ve put 350-425k on 4 Toyota’s so far. Plan on doing it with my 2015.
