    Had my truck done past weekend.
    We were driving past the local KFC and wife says "that smells horrible"
    "That's my truck, Hon"

    Where at? :anonymous:

    As far as those numbers, I went a couple weeks ago for an alignment (wouldn't do it bc of the tierod sleeves, been meaning to pop those off....) and my numbers were pretty similar, camber was good but my caster is like 1.1° on both sides. No rub so I'm not terribly concerned but im also running the oem upper so I feel like you should have considerably more lol

    Hey, it got cold up in Maine. Gotta stay warm somehow.

    Fair enough. I'm in semi sprint mode to get all my under-side related work done in the next few weeks. Oil change, diff fluids, ATF, etc.

    Sleeping in the bed...? Had an argument at home and need alternative accommodations? :rofl:

    Roof it for now. Even if it's just a short term thing, at least it gets it out of the way. I have to drop mine and clean it, I'm sure it's rough.

    Fortunately I'm not at any level of needing removal/repainting. I'm sure in the next couple years it may get there.

    PS @jpereira2 I got a new toy so I can actually clean my gooch :D

    How much of a slow down is this under coating going to do and will it void the frames warranty?

    The seam welds are crusty so I'll remove and repaint on those but the rest of the frame is new. However all the clips and random support Hardware the Toyota did not replace with the frame are showing their age. So I'll clean those the best I can and repaint or fluid film

    I have a love hate with the on the roof idea. I think it looks kind of cool and that's about it. I would hate to have to lift my tire over my head.. ever

    No - but Toyota will absolutely try, should they need to. If you fight it though they won't win.

    Not permanent but it at least gets it out of the way while you figure out something else.
