Howdy From Tucson

Hello All. My name is Eric and I live here in Sunny Tucson AZ. I just bought my first Toyota Truck and am fixing the little things that I am finding wrong with it. I am sure I will have 100 questions over the next few months and years and look forward to working with all of you. = )

Welcome

What are some of the "little things" you find wrong with your Tacoma?

 

I just bought a 2002 Toyota Tacoma 2 wheel drive regular cab 2.7 truck with only 70K miles. I bought it from the original owner who never did anything to it but change the oil. I believe him as it took me 2 days to clean the insides... Anyway, It needed new tires so I bought new tires and went to get an alignment but found out that it was way out. After a few days of trying to understand the problem I bought new used lower control arm, knuckle and upright spindle. I think I got them all changed okay (I could have used this site a few days ago, thats for sure) but ran across another issue.

The two upper control arms are at different heights. Is this a problem? Can they be adjusted?

Thanks gang for any insight into the issue.

Here are the pictures.
