    Mushy brakes

    Same mushy feeling here, both front calipers had frozen pistons. Changed pistons, bled the lines and all is good!

    can cv axle boot clamps be retightened?

    OEM's you would have a hard time tightening probably as theses are a single use crimp fitting and its unlikely the crimp has just stretched out over time. If i was you, i would go ahead and cut the old ones CAREFULLY (dont damage the boot) and stick on a few worm gear clamps in the interim (or...

    Radio Upgrades... Let see them.

    Yes i ran mine into the console. I'll warn you that you have to take the entire console out of the truck, disassemble it drill your hole, assemble the USB and reassemble and reinstall the console. None of its hard. The actual console assembly is held in with 4 hex heads (10 mm i think) and...

    RED Bushings

    Having just installed a lift the only bushing i changed (you can do a lift without changing any of them) was the strut tops. I went with toyota OEM's: If your talking about the bushings on the shock rod, most of them come with new shocks and usually are black rubber. Putting a poly bushing...

    RED Bushings

    Are you talking about sway bar bushings, or lower control arm bushings, or upper control arm bushings, or body bushings, or strut top mounts, or what? A lot of folks put in poly (red) sway bar bushings to stiffen things up.

    Double din non touchscreen or scion pioneer headunit

    Turns out I had it on a drive! A lot of options depending what you want to do. If you want hands free microphone, navigation, USB input/charging, backup camera. If you just want the double din to turn on and play AM/FM/CD's its really easy. Just need the radio, 28 to 20 pin, and antenna...

    Double din non touchscreen or scion pioneer headunit

    Yep, for my 2006 (non jbl) all my steering wheel controls work with no changes or other adapters needed. I'd have to add the right hand controls for the phone, but again its direct OEM plug and play and they would work (but its 100$ for that dang right side). Also the phone and all works fine...

    Double din non touchscreen or scion pioneer headunit

    Corolla I went with a 2012-2013 Corolla head unit because I thought it looked "modern enough" without being overbearing. Seemed to fit better with the period of the car but added things like HD radio, XM, Navigation, BT music streaming, AUX, BT calling, USB charger etc. My 2006 already had...

    Radio Upgrades... Let see them.

    It does not have maintenance reminders, but it DOES have navigation, USB, XM, Bluetooth calling / streaming, and AUX inputs. It has the ENTUNE system so you can access things like traffic, weather, etc but ENTUNE isn't that great (but its part of the nav box so you get it regardless if you use it).

    Ultimate Scion Headunit (stereo) thread
