    You are in south oc correct? By the gusset online and hit up @Speed Freek he is just in Vista. Better drive than going to riverside.

    Yes I am, thanks! I definitely don't plan on spening 500 bucks to get 50 dollar gussets welded on.

    Thanks bud!

    $500 is crazy...I do them all the time for a fraction of that. I have done quite possibly a million of them, or at least a couple hundred thousand, lol.
    But joking aside I can save you a lot of money and it will be done right, and you will have a metric ton of cash left over for gas and beer!
    PM me if I can help, Im in Vista 92083, I can assure you its worth the drive. I've had people come from Arizona for work to be done. although it was a bit more involved than a simple spindle gusset job, lol.
    Powder coating adding strength, Oh boy.....Ive got some seafront property in Nevada for sale too, wow...its simply a tough coating, nothing more. And it will still chip, I would just paint it with some bedliner and then you can touch it up when necessary.

    So my truck is making a squeaking noise whenever I turn my wheels almost all the way to the right.... :ballchain::goingcrazy: Wonder what I hit or wore out at Cleghorn hahaha
    Lift it or sell it :cookiemonster:
    Absolutely true. I use to wheel on my own when I first started but damn all I have to do is post here or on SCOR a day or so in advance and there's at least a few
    Speaking of flaky I may be too busy next week for big bear o_O
    Every sticker is an extra 5 HP.... The TacomaWorld sticker is 30 HP alone :rofl:

    Hopefully a bearing doesn't blow or something that causes the wheel to drop. Pretty sure my frame would bust if it fell :mad:
    Fix the 4runner :p. Isn't there a trail that starts around the bottom of the mountain and takes you to big bear? Maybe we can do that... would save me a few hours

    Is it a high pitched squeaking? Also is it only when you're moving or is it when also when you have the wheel all the way to the side but not moving.

    If you're ditching no point in fixing it yet :wink:

    There are but I haven't been on them in years and odds are they'll take you longer to make it up here using those. Also since I don't know the shape of that road, you could get stuck being a 2wd. If you're rolling alone you'll be screwed with no cell reception. You're better off meeting me in Big Bear

    Uhhh I don't remember exactly off hand but basically it happened when I had to pull really tight out of a parking spot at school moving slow. We'll see if Big Bear happens, I have loads of catchup to improve grades

    Can almost guarantee it's a belt. Next time you get a chance, get in with the engine running and crank the steering wheel all the way to both sides and hold it. If its a high pitched squeaking its your power steering belt

    Have Devon drive and do homework on the way up :thumbsup:

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Torque powers and horse curves, motor injections and stuff. Yknow?

    Wait what? Lol.
    Don't want to be dense, but I was referring to my spindle snapping and wheel coming off. Not anyone's balls.
