    I remember wondering about that when you told me a long time ago that Toyota was replacing your boots under warranty, I figured Bob Smith must be a really cool place to do that even when it's obvious the lift is what's causing their failure lol. That's cool you got a few out of them though before they caught on.

    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Pretty cool of them to do it even "this one last time" fuckin' A!

    Damn did you get extended lifetime warranty? 13 years later and it's still under warranty.

    Probably got them replaced at cost at one point, Toyota warranties most of their repair work for a year. I know the Pasadena one warrantied my clutch for a year

    I do have an extended powertrain warranty on my rig though and it's nearly paid for itself already, got my MAF, O2, air/fuel sensors and lower ball joints replaced with it.

    Ohhhhhh. I see. Every 11 months, "tear" the boot and get it replaced under their warranty.:anonymous:

    I'm sitting at 2" in the front on mine and the boots look great, no rubbing at all. I'm a little worried with the SAW's that I picked up though that that might change, they're set to 2.5" so we'll see.
