    rock chip

    You'll need to brush some rust converter in the chip first. Otherwise it will continue to rust under the touch up. You should be able to get some at autozone or auto paint supply. Just clean the area good to remove any dirt, use a touch up brush and touch up the rust. When the rust turns from...

    I could be wrong, but that looks like a current bodystyle Tacoma center console in the icon pic!

    Peeling paint-what are my options?

    If you want to get off cheap get yourself some 800 grit wetsanding paper and wetsand the area smooth, mask off the area and use a spray paint thats made to stick to raw plastic! 3 coats with 5-10 mins between coats should do it! The hardware or auto parts store will probly have it. I think...

    the FINGERPRINTS are back!?!?!?

    Well, I can tell you the panel(s) with the fingerprints have been painted before! When the panel was being preped the tech had sweaty hands, and the fingerprints are the salt from the skin. I've seen it many times, I've even seen entire hand prints come back through! The only way to get rid of...

    WeatherTech visors

    Once you install them you need to leave your windows up for a few days so the visors can seat in the channel! Otherwise the window senses tension and thinks there is something blocking the window and goes back down!

    New Australian yota lifts!

    First off I have No Affiliation with this place and have never dealt with them! I jus saw their ad in the new 4wd Toyota owner mag. I figured I`d just throw it out for people to check out! It looks like they are selling kits similar to the OME kits except the front strut are adjustable like the...

    Wheels / Tires ...Ucas??

    I`d definatly recommend the LR UCA`s, more tire clearance and the ability to dial in a perfect alignment!! I really like my Nitto TG`s although mine are 265/70 17`s!

    Pro Comp 7005 wheels

    No I didn't need move the fender liner, jus trim the inside of the mud flap! The wheels rubbed on flat street driving when turning at full lock, other than that the wheels fit great no issues. The pro comps do stick out probly 3/4-1". As for hub centric vs non hub centric, the pro comp hub...

    Need some quick input-Left vs. Right Springs?

    No I'm not kidding! The Toyota springs have different parts numbers and for some reason a left fj spring I $8 more than the right retail! Even OME springs are different, one is slightly longer than the other!

    Pro Comp 7005 wheels

    I have the 17x8 with 265/70's, they fit! Slight rubbing on the mud flaps, but not a big deal! The 4.5" backspace brings the wheel just outside of the flares! I'm not running wheels spacers either! You want NON HUBCENTRIC wheels! Extra thread lugs are a good idea, check out the e.t. Ultra...
