    I did for my 2001 tundra. It cured the squeaking and clunking once and for all.

    We had snowmobile dealers here that wouldn't touch a sled in warranty even if they found the wrong color 2 stroke engine oil in the reservoir.

    It’s almost Friday. Trade in for a 2022. Probably get your money back for the ‘21

    So why not go back to the suspension installer with your noise complaint on the part they installed?

    I do hope you verified that you purchased a Toyota backed extended warranty and not a more profitable for the dealership third party warranty that most likely will be out of business when you try to use it.

    I was denied the TSB leaf springs on my 2013 for having an ARB on stock suspension as they claimed it dropped my front end down 1". I was lucky enough to have a regional rep there when I was asking about getting a loaner car and that set off all the alarm bells and I got booted out of the dealer. I said eff it and put a lift on the truck and 95% of my vibes went away.

    My lifted 2013 had a transmission replaced under warranty. My 2016 has had some minor items repaired under warranty. Some dealers are bigger sticklers than others about modifications. Saying your warranty is void if you lift it as a blanket statement is false.

    @tacoman00 have you recently dropped the spare tire? I only ask because I was convinced on my 2013 that I had squeaky leafs and went to have the dealer look (admittedly this was pre-lift) and they came back and were like "spare's loose" and they tightned it up and everything went away. You likely have a legit squeaky leaf, but this is my anecdotal evidence.

    Well 2% because the only two here that I have heard about is you and macfly who are lucky enough to have good dealers others not so. I will be checking with my dealer of which I have been dealing for 27 years and trust them and see what they say about this.

    If you are surprised or upset that a car salesman lied to you...that is on you. They say WHATEVER they need to say to make you buy a car...truth or not is irrelevant.

    If a salesman misleads or lies to you then report him to the sales manager and he will make him disappear or give him a good talking. I have dealt with a few Toyota dealers here in Canada and they are very strict on salesmen as they are ruining the Companie's reputation and most are fired on the spot if caught or reported by customers. There is no reason for a salesperson to lie or mislead to get the sale as they are given a monthly pay to keep them happy till they make sales then it comes off of that. So report it.

    Did it squeak before the block and install? If not, you caused it by putting the rear block on it.....
    And you think Toyota is going to cover an installation of an aftermarket part effecting a stock part? Good luck sir, in this adventure.
