    BFG AT or KM2's

    I've owned both and I would recommend the KM2's The AT are good but they have limitations offroad. The KM2's are good on and offroad, sand, mud, rocks, wet pavement, low road noise, and a smooth ride. The AT's are about the same But the don't do MUD very well. IMHO the KM2's fall between the MT...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    I would have to agree with "Redline" LPC's customer service is second to none! They are committed to making a better product. They will stand behind their product 100%. Hey "Redline" what you can do is once you have the alignment set perfectly . Just weld the top washer into place. I haven't...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    Yeah they just sent me the new ball joint. My UCA's are brand new so they just replaced the joint. Sorry for the late response. The only way to actually tell if your joints are bad would be to remove them. Or take out the strut and coil assembly and cycle the suspension to see if your UCA's...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    UPDATE: Well it's been a while but I finally got the good set of Ball Joints from SPC. Both of these are at their maximum articulation: The one on the bottom can clearly move a lot more. It appears that they needed to remanufacture the ball joints that's why it took so long. There's a BIG...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    I was able to find the information that you posted on the FJ forum. I think I might have a bad set of ball joints. The engineer that I spoke to said they should move a lot more than mine do. They should do 45*. Thanks!

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    Hey "Redline" can you tell me the name of the engineer that gave you this information? They claim 45* off centerline range of travel? I just got the set of Light Racing UCA;s and by my calculations it's between 15*-20* off centerline. That is terrible! The stock UCA's have better angle off...

    CV Boot replacement Tip!

    LOL! Well here's a picture of the puller I used. I think it weighs about 4 oz's less then the hammer. So I can see why you think it's more work, than using the drift and hammer. But like you said "Different strokes" Like I stated earlier, I'm lazy. I prefer to ease things out. I...

    CV Boot replacement Tip!

    Yeah 4e is the step I'm referring to. As a rule I hate using a hammer as a tool unless I'm building a house. I was referring to the 05+ Tacoma's. If you guys feel comfortable with "DRIFTING"? That's cool! I guess I'm just lazy. I like doing things the easy way. Just wanted to share a tip...

    CV Boot replacement Tip!

    I finally got around to doing it. So here's a tip! Don't pound the tripod bearing off like the manufacture recommends. Get a 3 jaw 4" gear puller! Makes reomving the tri-pod bearing really easy! I still don't understand why anyone would pound the crap out of the axle just to get that bearing...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    Actually with the stock UCA's and the 6" lift the alignment # are low by about 1* of CASTER. I plan on cranking up my CO's so I would probably need 2* of caster. Which these just might be the ticket for. The Rep said it would take about 5 days to get here. So we'll see? If it doesn't work...

    Upper A-Arm Problems (Taco/4Run/FJC)

    Sure no problem! I ended up ordering mine locally, for $388.50+tax. from a distributor here in Hawaii. I'm hoping it will correct my alignment issue with the Fabtech 6" lift I have. Good Luck guys!
