I haven't been following it myself, I had a change in priorities, even though I was the one passing along the information... My frame is still rusty though!

Thanks! ...and thanks for the heads up on the Krown franchise, that will 100% be the next step. He can always take a look at it and see if he's comfortable with doing it or not, definitely a no pressure situation with me - I'm doing it this fall sometime, but I am not in a rush...

Hey Francis, can you PM me a name and number or email for the guy? I want to see if he will do some welding for me...

Hey, I'm in Redford, same situation with my GX, looking to undercoat and get welding done. If you hit on a place to get the welding work (and undercoat in same location is even better) please update the thread or send me a direct message...thanks!

It is near the body mount under the front passenger door, but tucked further towards the center of the vehicle.

Reading about peoples Woolwax experiences with Toyotas online, I think you are right. And it doesn't reek, like Fluid Film does. I may have been past the point of no return when I tried Fluid film. I want to get another Lexus or Toyota SUV without feeling like an idiot when it rusts out. If I...

This piece came from an area right by the passenger front cab mount. You nailed it without even seeing my vehicle.

I think the big difference in progress for them to move forward was the discovery documentation they received from Toyota (but may be blowing smoke). The lawsuit is specific to 2003-2009 4runners right now. I agree that it is possible they lazily tied it to the Tacoma class action years when...

I get the boxed frame issue - but here is what is so strange about my frame - the outside of the frame wasn't looking so bad, surface rust in some areas only. The inside of the boxed frame is still smooth, like new, except where the rust has worked its way through into the inside. So I don't...

Being in Michigan too, I had been looking to replace mine (or add another GX) since March. Still pysched from my own thread to see VSPro9 has a 470K mile GX in Michigan, gives me hope. I have yet to find one here that is clean enough to my satisfaction. A lot of frames reaching their end of...

I like private party better, myself...corner lots are okay depending on area. With what was mentioned above to check history, take the VIN and go on Lexus Owners site, create an account and put the VIN in as if you are the owner - it shows dealer service, some (but not necessarily all) may be...

Totally feasible. Despite my rust thread I just posted, I put 1500 a month on mine, I have 265/70's and Bilstein 5160 bypass shocks in the back - so that is not quite a lift and 33s, but it is an excellent daily driver. I have driven mine 70k+ miles in the last 5 years, lots of 500 mile round...

Yeah, you are one of the people I posted it for, but I realize you may just want to treat it yourself. No, to be quite honest I didn't want to use my normal handle, I could sense there may be some tension over the suggestion of class action on the vehicles at this point. If you look at the GX...
