With all of that, I need to see some pics of this beast!

I like the 6th gen as well, but will keep with the 4th gen. I blew through my retirement to build up my 4th gen. I gotta save for retirement now.

You can get body mount bushings from battle born offroad for $402 Energy Suspension 03-09 Toyota 4Runner/GX470 / 07-14 FJ Cruiser Black – Battle Born Offroad

So whats the deal with the Tacoma upper control arms? Are they better, or different?

Always appreciate your insight and info on this stuff lol, I have a decent general knowledge of suspension, but you definitely go into the more finer details!

What if you were to re-install the Dobinsons 749v rear coil springs, would that help with the squat under accleration?

That's what I was thinking, like how the heck can these bushings be so worn after around 7000 miles!? They are Total Chaos bushings that I replaced back in July 2021, grease them regularly, torqued, and now they are pratically blown! Btw, really nice work on the rear spare tire carrier!

I found out why my steering when accelerating was tracking weird, my total chaos upper control arm bushings have alot of play in them after about 7000 miles. Surprised how much play there was in the whole wheel with the upper control arms bushings being shot. Just replaced them two years ago!

I haven't measured the toe-in from the front tires. I probably should look into that. Thanks for all your input on your experience with your suspension drama lol.

So now I'm questioning my own suspension with the modified Tundra Rack. I've been getting some bump steer ever since I installed Dobinsons 749V rear springs. I have Kings 700lbs springs up front. Running a little stiff, but my rig is heavy. Looking at the Iron Man rear springs for a 3 inch lift...

Could you go back to the 749 dobinson rear springs like you had before?

Thanks for the info! I may look into the IPT transmission upgrade!

I figured you would have to do some surgery. Also have you looked into the Yotawerx tune?

Does that URD throttle body spacer actually do any difference performance wise? Also, afraid that if I was to install a spacer, my cold air intake tube from AFE will hit the radiator fan.

You still have the rear TK1 rear sway bar or have you removed it?
