    Just wanted to post how my frame replacement went, the dealer gave me a new Tacoma to drive and it took 26 days, they did suggest I replace the rear shocks and wanted $100 for parts, I passed because I though they might replace them anyway cause they were really rotted they did not no big deal. So I got it back last night, I went out this morning and all I can say is when you get it back look at all the clips I have a wire harness under the hood that is not clipped to the firewall the clips are broke same is true for the rubber flaps in the wheel well, the power steering fluid was empty ( I started my truck and it started sqeeking like a horny pig) there was a rag in the engine bay and a line near the rear wheel is missing a bolt, I going to go under it later with a creeper and make a list, I do appreciate that the frame was replaced but I did not take care of this truck since 2002 to let all these things get sloppy. Over all I think it went well just need to button up the details.
