    No, I hear ya. But there are even a couple guys having trouble getting their dealer to honor the TSB - saying it isn't related or something. Which is laughable. I go to Brookdale Toyota though, and so far they've been awesome for everything I've needed them to do, so I'd like to think they wouldn't give me any trouble.

    Stay away from Rochester Toyota; very expensive and not interested in customers IMO. Had a great time at Inver Grove Toyota and they did everything on my truck that I needed done less than half the price Rochester qouted. Also let me drive a 2016 Tacoma for the better part of a day.

    I've got a similar lift that needs to go in soon. Waiting on a few more parts but here is the rundown:
    Bilstein 6112 at #4 setting
    1/4" Drivers side spacer
    Camburg UCA
    Dakar leaf pack
    Bilstein 5160's (updated version with more travel)

    Question is...should I get axle shims and cb drop now...or wait and see what vibes show up? I hate the idea of adding shims after the fact but it is what it is. Anyone have experience with a similar 2.5 - 3" lift? I might just throw them on my wheelers order now....

    Also, what about UCA bolts? Cut them and put in new or finesse them out and reinstall backwards?

    We got them out with a little persuasion and bending of sheetmetal.

    It would get 4 15's or 18's on 10kw and a 4th order blow through the rear window that way I wouldn't be cutting up the body

    I'll vouch for Chris too. He helped with my lift and last night me and my brother returned the favor and helped with a cv replacement and a roof rack remount. Looks good Chris. The three of us are thinking about wheeling next Saturday in Nemadji state forest. We will plan to meet between 9&10 at Banning Junction cafe for breakfast at the intersection of I 35 and mn23 east. We can be in the forest from there in 15 minutes. After breakfast and gas. There is a motel across the road for guys who may need to stay overnight. This trip is very exploratory. At the least we will get together in the woods for lunch and bonfire. It takes about 21/2 to 3 hours from the cities I am not going to stay or camp overnight but you could do either.let us know if interested so we can look for you. I plan on leaving home at 5:45-6:00. If we can get Chris' ass out of bed. Could meet down here in the cities and caravan. This location is really close for St. Cloud or brainerd guys.

    You nailed it! They won't Look up parts, won't price match, make you bring vehicle in 3 times to replace a simple button, and certainly don't care about your business. I've bought 2 vehicles (a 08 Tundra and a 13 Tacoma) from them and when to inquire about a 16 they did nothing to earn my business. I drove to Nebraska instead, screw them they're worthless!

    Last time I contacted them about 60k service that I mentioned in an above post, I had to listen to a commercial about timeshares in Florida. Timeshares in Florida. I calling to give them money for a service rendered on my truck, and they want to soak me for a timeshare first? That's when I contacted Inver Grove and realized the major price difference on their 60 k service.
