2 questions: 1) Will you be stocking the TD shocks for the 100 again? 2) I see your location is in Redding. If it came up for other items like sliders etc, do you offer pickup in Redding to save on shipping (I live in Ashland, OR but pass through Redding at least once a month).

Plan to always try and have the shocks in stock. Like the suspension kits I like to discuss these prior to selling. So they are not available on the website. Yes, always open for pickup Mon-Fri and misc Sat mornings if I'm there. Saves on shipping but 7.25% tax applies for picking up in Redding.

Hey Jason, are sales over? I was eyeing your diff drop last night and see the price is back to normal today.

Please don’t tell me I missed the sale... Want to snag some sliders for my LX470...
 
Ya. Me too. Hope I didn't wait too long.
 
@TRAIL TAILOR afternon Jason, I am having trouble accessing your site right now. Anyone else having an issue?
 
F5 didn’t work but I figured out the issue, needed to clear my cache on both my chrome and firefox browsers. Thanks @TRAIL TAILOR !
 
Jason, can you make me a set of step sliders that are flat rather then being angled up?
 
@TRAIL TAILOR Jason, what is the likelihood that the ball joint on my UCAs I installed this summer would already have gone bad. I brought my truck to get serviced and asked them to look at the alignment because it's been wearing quickly on the outside edge of the tires. Their claiming the ball joints are bad?

Perhaps best sorted out via PM or direct email. Just post your findings here after the fact. Best of luck!

I doubt it's the UCA ball joint. Could be... I see the lowers fail if not replaced at the same time and cause problems with alignment. Also it depends on how well the alignment was done during the install. For all I know the alignment was wrong to begin with.

Not placing blame on him at all, just asking his opinion I was trying to find out if the mechanic was blowing smoke. Like Jason answered if it was not aligned correctly from the beginning which was what i suspected from when i had them installed.
Thanks Jason for the info, now I have something to go back to the mechanic with!

No worries, if it is the joints fault I'll be the first to raise my hand, replace the joints free of charge and go to my supplier with a remedy. Email me the original alignment sheet, curious where he has toe in at..

I had a guy buy a set of my arms and he said the shop couldn't get them into alignment. Sent them back, double checked them, no issues... Installed on another rig here local and the shop dialed in a 22.5" front with 2.8 degrees.. So, anything is possible and I take a "general" mechanics word very LIGHTLY these days..

A few of the shops here put a ridiculous amount of toe in into the alignment to the point they are showing signs of wear within 30 miles of leaving the shops. There is only one local shop here I send my alignments to now and I watch them like a hawk... IH8ALIGNMENT SHOPS... If we get the 3000 sq ft unit next to us next I will buy my own alignment rack.

What type of numbers do you look for on a 100? I've always suspected one of my vehicles is wrong (My tundra wears tire outsides), but I figure if the print out is in the green, how bad could it be?
