I have one that you can have.  Pm me your address.


That's cheating. If he wants one that way then I've got one he can have without the trouble of the post.

Is that per tie rod? Even if it is that's a darn good deal for never having to buy new ones again.

I like the fact that they are rebuildable, serviceable, greasable. if you ever feel slop, just tighten the back cap. also, I like the black liquid nitride coating

The question to me is how much is it to rebuild them? The $45 each from the parts house with lifetime warranty work well as long as they stay well greased. Those do look slick though

We are talking about solid axle trucks that get the crap beat out of them. My taco with 335k still has stock rod ends but I lives an easy life.

So a couple days ago I received a PM from cbeers. Offered to give me a 4runner tailgate. This morning I drove out to Napa to pick up. Thank you so much cbeers. By the time I got out to his place. There was no service on my phone. I tried texting, and calling with no luck. Anyhow, I didn't get to shake his hand and says "thanks". Just wanted to publicly says thank you sir. Here's what I got plans are to have a gutted summer tailgate. Planning on a rear tire carrier coming out of sheetmetal

I like the idea on the naked/empty tail gate for summer time soft top use.
Looking forward to the tire carrier.
 :think: I am wondering if anyone has ever made a tube tailgate/ tire carrier for summer time soft top use?

I started playing with my tube bender, decided I'm going to add a hoop and support bars to stock roll bar. Will fit under the hardtop. And free up some space in the back.
