    Hey Dan,so glad it worked out for you and 4wparts stepped up and came though.They have been in business for many years.I took my old 93 LC FZJ80 there for a OME lift and an ARB front winch bumper,same store! W. San Carlos st. San Jose.I think they made it right and you will be back for more good stuff! Save that wheel for a full size spare w matching Km3! You got it man,now how are you gonna mount full size spare? Ideas? More reasearch here on TW! Take care man and post up some pics.

    Why the fucking fuck would any fuck head remove the fucking caliper to install the fucking lift?

    A customer came in to my work saying there was a crunching noise when he drives his lifted tundra and it ended up that the rear diff was the problem. So due to the size of the truck (double cab long bed), my boss sent him to 4w parts in Compton. The truck came back a week later saying there was noise in the back and it ended up that one of the driver rear caliper bolts was loose and the other one gone. So my boss made a phone call and the 4w parts people bought new caliper bolts and delivered it to my work. The new bolts were installed and the other bolts were checked and that was it as far as I know.

    Your problem is 4wheelparts, that place sucks and they REALLY don’t know what they are doing. They didn’t even know how to install the ECGS bushing in my truck. I had to go into their shop and show them. I’m pretty sure anyone on here who knows a thing or two would agree with me. Don’t go to those tards

    It took 30 miles at bumper to bumper traffic to get loose I watched them test drive and didn’t see or hear anything the last 5 or so miles on the way home was getting worse so I stopped called AAA and got towed home. The shop was closed by this time so I called them the next morning and they took care of it end of story.
