There are kits for both GM and Tundras where the shackle is flipped. The reports are that the trucks ride better than before. I think you could flip the shackle and be fine. Archive Garage has the shackle flip for the tundra.

That doesn't look like rust, it looks like red dirt. One bolt is clean, and the rubber stops half way up are red as well. It is even on the bottom of the lift gate arms where they get oily.

The original bed on your truck has to be the ugliest bed ever to leave the factory. This tray is awesome and much better than the original.

I'm running 886's and love them. I installed them on Bilstein 5100's. So far they've great.

What sway bar extensions did you find?

Take a look at this YouTube channel. It's all about the first gen Sequoia. He has done an amazing job with his rig.

My Tundra may not be a GX, but it has been great. It hasn't let me down off-road. Here we are on the Doll House Rd. Maze district of Canyonlands.

I have a good relationship with the Big O here in town. I worked with the mechanic to get the alignment set correctly.

Love it with the Brute Force Fab bumper!

I thought it looked like a dirt track sprint car.

I know that others have used SPC uppers and listed their alignment numbers. I am getting my truck aligned and would like to know where to set my ball joint and what numbers to expect on my 2005 Tundra.

I wonder if Ford has ever had a frame recall.

I don't know. It is a 2005 DC. I assume it has the larger brakes. I bought it used at 42K from the original owner and it was in great shape.
