Also personally have experienced weird braking issues due to bad ball joints, as well as control arm bushings.
Don’t know of another member who has been on here since 2003.....

I used the black CRC Synth grease liberally or a lot! So we can probably exclude parts binding but I can check for that too.
As for torque-ing, I have two 1/2" torque wrenches (I used one to check the other, better than nothing ) so I think I got them right when I did the brakes and the Tundra Billy 5100 and 99 talls last Fall.
As for the rest of the suspension, had it aligned after the work so everything should be good. You know those lifetime alignment shops, they point out every issue because they think they can make money off replacing them.
Really? I had my 2k Sport since it was brand new. I probably went on here in 2003 because of my aftermarket wheel balancing issues that I've had ever since!
edit: It only has 130K miles, just did a tune up, rear axle seal and bearings, tranny 14 quart fluid exchange, and x-case and frt and rr diff d&f to synthetic. Plus the new brakes and suspension and some poly bushings, so it feels like driving a new rig except for this braking issue :-(
