    I was being sarcastic ( and a little jealous ) , mine was seized after one year up here , with big globs of rust mud coming out when I tried to free up the bolts

    :sorry: That is very unfortunate. :( I feel really bad for my Tacoma Brothers up North--I really do. Toyota should lube these things up from the factory and make them serviceable like the moog bolts that are now for sale...

    When they aligned my truck after my lift mine were seized after 20k with one winter. I think I'll have one more alignment done in a week after everything settles and I take my rear blocks out and I'll ask to have this done.

    2 of mine are still seized , we were only able to get the alignment right because of the adjustment in the LR UCA's

    This is the reason I got mine, plus the OME lift. I'll be replacing with moog bolts and I'll try the white line bushings.

    Finished up my console vault today. I'm not the best welder and don't have the best equipment but I was able to make do and crank this out. Fits like a glove and serves its intended purpose!

    Not as cool as ^, but I have done alot today to my new truck. Got the toolbox installed, put in my weathertechs, took out my charcoal filter and OEM Air Filter and installed K&N Filter. I got about 1mph out of the Magnaflow exhaust, hoping for more with the charcoal gone + K&N....time will tell

    Yeah, I meant I had one alignment already almost two weeks ago. I'm taking my block out on Thursday and I'll probably get my alignment done sometime early the following week. Should be ok by then you think?

    New Mods in the works.
    Riding on 3 new U-joints. Stealer said two were shot and one was close. Turned out only one was shot and one getting close. Changed all three myself since the Toyota wanted $400 to do it. Now I can grease them and keep them in good shape.
