    Standard rear 85 pounds is what is listed. Ididnt have a factory receiver, and the truck always felt better with a little something in the bed. That's why I got it, and it looks good.

    Also does anyball run uniballs in this region?

    If so how do they perform?

    Okay, picked truck up from the dealer so far the things that weren't quite right are:

    • Power steering fluid resivior left open, puked most of the fluid out right when I started it.
    • Trailer wiring harness and tag lights left unplugged
    • Rear seats not locked (They were up, but they didn't get them locked so they flipped down when I stopped the first time)
    • Strange steering wheel vibration at speed, not sure if it's a road thing or mechanical yet, but it wasn't there before.

    I hate dealerships. When I bought my wife's 02 4runner the only thing that failed msi was a leaking r/r axle seal. I took it to Darcars Toyota to have the seals & bearing replaced. I was driving it back to my work and I noticed the brakes didn't feel right. I immediately put it up on the lift & found that their tech left a pair of pinch pliers on the rear brake hose. People forget, I can understand that, we're only human. I called & spoke to the service advisor & emailed him pics of the tool left on my brake hose. I requested a free replacement hose in case the hose was damaged internally from driving with it pinched. I told him send me the hose and I'll return the techs tool to their parts delivery guy. He agreed but after a couple days no hose. So I called him to find out where my part was he then called me a thief for not returning the tool. Pissed me off big time! I let my Irish temper get the best of me that day. I jumped in my truck drove up there, walked in their service department and threw the tool and hit the service advisor in the face while he was sitting at his counter with a customer then yelled at him because he called me a thief. I returned to work & was waiting for a cop to come but luckily they never did.

    Yeah, in a perfect world I would have rather gotten the frame kit from Toyota and brought it to one of you guys to do the swap, but oh well. I can live with minor fuckups, as long as there isn't a ton of them. Nobody is perfect. However, certain things, like the lower steering fluid, is basic stuff that leaves me wondering what else could be wrong. Since I had to go to work right after I couldn't do much more than a simple visual inspection. I'll be pulling out the tourqe wrench later and checking stuff as well as figuring outbwhy they didn't plug the trailer harness and tag lights back in. Also debating if I should check the trans fluid over the weekend, since the ultragauge makes getting the temp right easy

    I hate dealer ships because the kicked and stole my dog, spit in my face, shot me in the knee with an arrow, and charged me $100 to tighten down a bolt.

    hahah nope just spent way to much time at them. either farting around test driving cars, or waiting for them to do a service that I tell them what's wrong and they take 4 different times to fix and they never believe me.
