Random question but for anyone that has a stock trail bumper, what's are its measurements? Trying to see if the C4 fab hybrid bumper will fit on my 2012 SR5. What's the depth from the stock tow hooks on the front to the bump outs that are only on the trail? And the width between those bump outs...

Yeah spare tire is good. I did figure it out. It was my rear driver side bottom shock mount that was a tiny bit loose. Easy fix I guess.

What should I suspect a bad shock mount looks like? The bushing itself?

Oh and does it in turns and going straight. Doesn't really have a consistant spot where it happens like turning right or left.

At high speeds I can't really hear the knock/clunk. It's very prominent when pulling into my driveway (doesn't make the sound when front end first goes up the curb but does when the rear hits the curb) and make sounds when hitting mostly small bumps at slow speeds, mainly 10-25 mph. I'm thinking...

So it's a 2012 SR5 4x4, 41000 miles, toytec 3 inch lift with Camburg UCA's, spidertrax wheel spacers. Already checked spacers to make sure they're still torqued right, wheels solid, and UCAs were just installed last week. Getting new rear sway bar links tomorrow to see if that's it. Doesn't seem...

Oh and already took it to my local Toyota dealer (Butler in Carmel, In) and of course the master tech "didn't hear anything". Not sure they even drove it because when I first took it in they seemed scared to touch it since it has a lift.

Pretty sure this has been covered a few times before but I've got a seriously annoying knock going on. Did a look thru under the truck and with the exception of an unseated rear spring (fixed) everything looks in order. One question is should the front driveshaft spin freely? Also any ideas of...

Since I'm new to Indiana, I don't know if there are local places to offroad. Is it just offroad parks or are there trails kind of scattered? I'm just looking to get out somewhere

So looks like another thread revival but I'll be moving soon to the Indianapolis area from Phoenix probably in January. Anyone meeting up in Indiana? Only place I know to wheel is the badlands but I've never lived in Indiana. I'm up for any meet ups to wheels if anyone is still getting together...

I'm sure like a lot of other threads here, this has been talked about a lot but I had a knock and looseness to the steering when I was up on a pretty rocky trail yesterday. I was aired down to 20 psi on the trail. When I aired up, the steering tightened and had no further problems on the...

Yeah, no play in the tire when off the ground. Bushings look ok actually. Everything looks pretty solid, but I do think new UCA are in order. The stock UCA sits awful close to my bilstein coils. No sign of them get hit. Maybe the sound is just from the suspension abruptly going to full droop?

If the ball joints truly are bad, what could happen? Would it make a noise? I was on the trail a couple weeks back and I would go over a rough obstacle kind of fast I would hear a pretty good knock that seemed like the suspension. Could be the front end coming to full travel but not sure

Ok so some leakage is normal and the ball joint itself isn't serviceable. I would have to replace the whole UCA?

As the title says, I'm not really sure and have looked around to find answers but haven't found anything. The ball joints are leaking grease and need replaced. Any help appreciated
