Suspension parts list - help me remember it!

[jham]

I've read so many build threads in the last month I can't remember where this was...

Someone had posted a detailed list of Toyota part numbers for a suspension overhaul. Tie rods, bushings, the works. Who was it?

A lot of people are using Energy Suspension bushings. Tie Rods and ball joints are easy to look up. There is really nothing else to replace besides shocks, and sway bar end links.

I've recently replaced all my suspension components, I used Energy Suspension bushings and OEM Toyota Ball Joints. I didn't replace the tie rod ends. I've only replaced one OTRE so far in 205K miles, because it failed. Some of the miles have not been easy.

Seriously consider upgrading to adjustable upper control arms. The UCA and LCA bushings are a real PITA. The dealer doesn't even replace them, they just replace the entire control arm.

I have full BOSS kit on it's way from ToyTec, including new UCAs. 85% of our driving is on very rough roads, so I plan on replacing as much of the suspension as I can while I have everything disassembled. Will probably rebuild the front and rear hubs while I'm installing all new brake parts.

There was a build thread where the guy did the same thing - had all the part numbers listed out where you could literally copy and paste into an email to a local toyota dealer.
