    I guest I got lucky ... I've woke up one morning and decided to get a 4runner instead of a chevy avalanche, looked them up and found my truck, called the guy, we agreed on the time to meet, called him back before leaving he answered: there is a guy offering me 500$ more just for bumping me ...

    How do I lubricate the rear chassis?

    If you go up and down with the air suspension do you ear it ? I've had the famous driveshaft issue with my '03 and found the probleme by cycling the air suspension ! Anyhow are you shure that it's not the front balljoint squeeking ? How many miles on you're truck ?

    Conical Lug Nuts vs Extended (ET) Conical Lug Nuts

    How thick is your wheel where nut sit? is the hole long enough to receive the ET ? If a standard buldge nut ( like the center one) fits I wouldn't bother with the ET !

    Help: Post alignment numbers w/ stock UCA's??

    what you have to look at is the difference between left and right, you have the same measurement so no pulling on one side. Your only small disavantage is your camber wich is slightly positive, but then again this ain't a race car so closer to zero is best for your tires !
