steering

I have a 2003 Limited Tundra with 255,000 miles, which I bought new off the lot with only 4 miles on it. It is the most reliable car I've ever owned. I've never had a problem with it. All I've ever done is just standard maintenance and after 16 years, it still runs and looks like it's brand new...

Hi, I have a 2004 LC. Does anyone know of a good resource online where I can lookup list prices for parts and required labor? Specifically I need to replace the steering gear (44200-60100) with bushings and tie rod ends (45047-69115 and 45046-69205). I got a whole range of quotes from workshops...

Hey! I just picked up about a week ago an 84 FJ60 from Los Angeles and drove it across country to Wilmington, North Carolina. It’s a beast. But has caused some problems as I’ve been repairing issues from the PO. I realized late that my whole front end really got worked by the PO on a trail...

My LX470 has the VGRS, VSC OFF, and VSC TRAC lights on. They are steady and remain on all the time while driving. Took it to Toyota to get diagnosed and the codes pulled were ABS: C1289, C1291, C1340 VGRS: C1554, C1568 AHC: 1777. I was told these are all related to the VGRS going bad except for...

I am selling leather steering wheel kits to recover your old, discolored, and worn out leather. These kits ARE NOT simply wraps that cover up the old leather; they completely replace the old. They are made here in Mississippi, from Italian leather. The leather is smooth, and supple. The kits...

I have a complete steering assembly from a DEC. 1977 FJ40. This was found in a shed out of the elements, so I know it’s been well preserved and appears to be in excellent condition. Includes what is shown, even has the key in the ignition! Steering wheel is in great shape, has some minor...

Around The Corner (1937) How Differential Steering Works

Whenever I try to parallel park, I turn my steering wheel to one extreme lock or the other, and then travel forward or backward. Right after I spin the steering wheel and move an inch, I hear this loud noise that sounds like metal buckling... After 1-2 quick buckles, the noise goes away. Any...

Hey guys. I have to remove my steering box because I got a refurbished one and my old one was leaking. Struggling a lot to remove the pitman arm. I've tried heating it up and lubricating it. Won't budge. Any tips or advice? I would appreciate it. Thank you!!

My front suspension and steering have started getting really squeaky. Took it to Toyota dealership and their diagnosis was that upper and lower control arms and ball joints all need replacing. They quoted me $4k for the work. Local shop will do the lot for $1.2k but with ISG (international...

Hi to all, I have noticed that sometimes it is hard to turn the steering wheel when idiling or low rpms. I have changed power steering fluid as it was gray, but this did not help. Has anyone experienced this kind of issue ? It is that the power steering does not genereate enough pressure by...
