    My Shop's Verdict on Steering issues

    UPDATE: Cranked by torsion bars a little bit today since I was sagging in the front since I got the car last year and it reduced my sketchy handling on uneven, rough roads by about 40-50%.. I am happy just for that for now but probably will crank a just a little bit more. Definitely got...

    My Shop's Verdict on Steering issues

    I've done the bushings .. Helped with wandering a lot. I am at 32psi now and the tram lining isn't horrible but still gotta be aware Front end is a little low and I do need to level with the torsion bars yet. Shop said its just the very stiff big, wide tires will tend to tram line more and...

    My Shop's Verdict on Steering issues

    Apparently after 2 mechanics and the owner driving my 100 and reinspecting all the suspension parts they found nothing wrong and also really liked the truck personally. Go figure. They did mention the tires being pretty different then say a stock P rated tire will behave differently. They are...

    frogers Build - 2006 LX470

    I have used a few starter POR 15 kits with the glossy black on my 100 and 4runner and the gloss doesn't stay glossy for too long and fades to a nice satin black from what I have seen :)

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    Like most things with Corporations and Governments something bad has to happen in order for anything to get done (somebody dies and makes national news, etc) Seems like a good PM would be a new pump/accumulator ($1200 parts) at 150k+ from what was mentioned. I remember reading in the 100 FAQ...

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    From what you described sounds like a line somewhere and not the pump failing

    Lower Control Arm Bushing ?'s with Pictures

    I have the alignment sheet, they told me tie rods were fine which I double checked afterwards anyways. Said ball joints were ok and assuming control arms were fine since they could align and didn't mention anything being out of spec which just leads me more towards the rack itself. I am...

    Poll on total brake failure in 100 series

    Thats what I would do... maybe look for any kind of uphill grade that is not "on road" that is "safe" enough to stop forward progress.. mind you thats if that is possible at all and would be if imminent impact of another vehicle was going to happen.

    Lower Control Arm Bushing ?'s with Pictures

    Yea the bushings looked ok to me for the most part.. Ball joints not sure... My PS side had a glob of grease come out somehow the other week after doing new brake pads. I lift up the rubber and can see grease and all. DS not as bad. 2nd Owner from 24k miles replaced the DS with ball joint at...
