UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

How many go-ponies do they claim?

And when is yours going to be ready for pick up?

 

I don’t recall what the hp claim is. I believe the torque is around 460 ft-lb at 2700?

I’m waiting for the feedback on the hybrid version. I’m in no hurry. I’m happy with my 3rd Gen.

 

I think it's time for an updated tune for me. It's been 2 years or so from the last tune I had gotten from you. Hahaha!

 

Happy to arrange a test session so you can try before you buy if you’d like.

 

yeah, it's laughably small. i'm more interested in driving dynamics and potentially more comfortable driving position. but i can live with my 3rd gen for now. I'm at the point where I'm maybe considering my next truck have more space so a tundra is interesting for that but....we'll see. still gonna get several years out of my current vehicle. no payments is great. lol.

 

Selling this! first gen dbl cab gimp cage!
Listed in Utah Tacoma classifieds and Gen1 parts summer is coming get your rigs ready.

 

Sounds good, working with the claims department this week. The passenger side frame rail is sheared off on the medial aspect and is severely kinked. Drivers side is severely kinked but not sheared off. Runs and drives great, ABS light is on after the crash.

Was coming back from Logan on 15 and was passed by a brand new 4th gen around Fillmore during a blizzard. This was probably around February 8th.

Looked like it was purchased from Clearfield Toyota.

Just wondering if that was anyone here….

 

Negative. But I’ve watched several videos of people starting to mod them.

 

This one looked to be that bronze color. Looked pretty nice….

 

Should have sold the truck when i was wanting to... lol now I need to replace the lower control arms on both sides, tie rods and both front struts were leaking totaling $3500 to get it all replaced. Guess I am keeping this truck forever now lol

 

I've never owned any kind of vehicle that needed control arms replaced. Do they wear?

 

Toyota doesn't sell the ball joints separately, you have to buy the whole lower control arm assembly. Sucks but they come with a warranty while the aftermarket ball joints don't. I figured they lasted almost 200k miles why not put toyota oem back on there.

 

Your choice... How long do ball joints last? Of course there are better aftermarket parts and there are some I wouldn't buy. What's the price difference?

 

These were the original ball joints from my understanding but i'm sure they're way overdue for being changed anyways. The price difference was about $500 all together. Labor is the same for both, actually it's more for just the ball joints since they have to press them in and out which can take some work.

 

$500 more for only the ball joints? Or less? What was the price of the arms? Ball joints only?

 

$500 more for the lca assembly including ball joints. just aftermarket ball joints were about $300, toyota lca assemblies are $400 each so $800 total.

 

I had to replace both of the lower arms on my 03 and i had to do one of them on my 09. The bolts for the alignment cams can seize inside and cause problems

 

I have also replaced the LCA's on my 08 for this reason...kinda annoying, but oh well!

 

I had to cut the bolts on my 17 when I put in new bushings. They were seized
