What did I do with my Sequoia, traded my Tacoma for it and brought it home. Definitely works better than the Tacoma for a family of four and two dogs.

Replaced +1" Amazon noname shackles ("Protunes Suspension") with +2" Pro Form Fabrication. Here the new shackles are compared to the stock ones.

Lower bolts were both seized badly, even though I greased them with Lukas marine grease 3 or 4 years ago. Had to take leafs out, heat the bolt remnants with inductive heater, cool with PB Blaster, repeat N times, and finally press them out. Next time I'll just use greasable bolts.

The new shackles needed a stretching surgery for top bolts and some paint removal from the insides of the holes. Pretty sure I've heard a weld cracking while doing the other one.

One bolt wasn't cooperating, I was tired and just smacked it in with a sledge. Of course it damaged the threads, I'm waiting on a M14 die&tap to finish the work.
