To add a bit of color here, anyone offered a new frame.........do it. My 2001 Tundra frame was replaced in 2011 with 155K on it.......I used it as an opportunity to upgrade and fix some things that would normally come with huge labor bills.....I added headers for only ~$50 in additional labor as the engine was coming out.....I replaced the steering rack, shocks, etc. Any bolt on parts can be swapped usually for little to no additional labor as they were performing the work anyways. The job the dealer did was fantastic, all new bolts and lines and no rattles whatsoever 6 years later and at 229K miles almost 75K miles later.

I just figured I would throw that out there as some people think a replacement frame job results in an inferior rig.......if you are planning on keeping it.......embrace the frame job and expect to pay something for parts that need to be replaced when they do it.
