    I have 32 x 11.5 R15 Falken Wildpeak A/T tires... and I believe there around 35 PSI... I already replaced the tie rod ends, upper ball and lower ball joints, steering rack bushings, coils, and struts.... I checked my body mount bushings and they are toast! may need to get that done soon too.... I will end up leaving the sway bar on and getting extended end links this weekend. Also I will make sure all of the suspension components are tight. Will see what happens... OH and my truck is 2WD so it cant be the CV.

    oh by the way, when I started my truck this morning, I heard a loud rattling noise in the front passenger side... almost like my front fender is loose or something... GREAT... l:help:

    I've replaced an end link on my 1998 TRD (stock) three times in the last 10k miles - twice on the left, and once on the right. I was not able to find any end links of which the shaft diameter was larger than the stock links. Too bad nobody makes nice, strong, beefy ones.

    And I noticed that when I torque the top nut to the recommended spec, the rubber grommets are really crunched down tight. :notsure:
