    Rain Visors,
    Hey guys, love my truck but have a few issues.

    1. The rear springs are awful, i loaded about 600lbs in the bed yesterday, not only was it on the floor, but now it seems to be sitting tail down like i wore them out. I have 42K on it, but have the 72K warrenty. I know I am out of range for the TSB but I have to try.

    2. At Idle i get a rough idle. To the point my visor will shake, not that it's severe but it's vibrating the chasis too much for a 42K motor. Did this motor have a balence issue, rotating assembly issue, or motor mount issue. It's an '06 4.0L

    3. Rims, I have the OR rims, but on 3/4 of them there are paint bubbles beneath the paint. Like it's rusting below the paint, and it will just chip off it i played with it. Is this a warrenty issue? or just SOL.


    The truck isn't what i am used to ( 3/4 or 1 ton Diesel ) but I love it, great ride to work every day, and kind of hauls what I want it to.

    I am going to call toyota corporate tomorrow and see if they will help me out with any of this, or any at all. But If I knew there was existing issues prior it would help me out.


    And Sorry I didn't do a search, its midnight, and just worked a 20 hour day, I bet this info is out there, but will admit I took the lazy route today.
    thanks again guys

    Seeing the third gen section forced me to get a Ford...
    #1) obvious rear leaf tsb if u can get the dealer to go for it...
    #2) there were motor mount issues w/ the 05's, not sue if any of those carried to the 06's
    #3) people hve had the dealers refinish their rims under warranty due to salt, etc. dealer wouldnt replace, just refinish
