The All Out Offroad in Pearland installed the lift on my Tundra. I think they have three or four locations, but they all do great work. I'm having a Ready Lift 3.5 installed by Texas Offroad and Performance on the 28th along with 285/55 22 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. What size tire are you installing?
Disclaimer: I'm completely cool with you having this opinion and am not trying to bash it ... I'm just curious why? I know a lot of people with the same line of thinking and I feel like I'm missing something. I had a 2012 Tundra and it was a great truck. Built right here in Texas, by Texans. The...
I asked for the collision repair company to take the truck to a muffler shop and see what they can do. Things start to get a little tricky with the insurance company requiring the repair facility to use brand new OEM parts. Hopefully things can get worked out soon. I'm in a 2018 Chevy Silverado...
The collision repair people got back with me this afternoon. Aside from the bumper, exhaust hanger, and exhaust pipe the y-pipe is bent as well. All of the parts have a one day availability with the exception of the y-pipe. I'm being told the y-pipe is back ordered nationally with an unknown...
I was just borrowing the money and the cop should've known I was going to stop at the stoplight.
I'm glad you didn't have any serious issues with your freak accident. It sucks to pull up to the collision repair company and look down to see 2500 miles on the odometer.
Good eye Mango. I climbed under the truck to get a better look this afternoon. The mandrel bend coming from the joint just past the y-pipe (X-pipe?) is deformed and will definitely need to be replaced. This section also includes the muffler assembly. I noticed that the muffler proudly displays...
I'm thankful the hit wasn't any harder. The exhaust pipe is rubbing on the sway bar end link and with any more force I would have bent suspension components. I was really surprised that it will only take a day to get the replacement parts.
Good point. Down here in south Texas we don't have any road salt and I hadn't thought of that as an issue. I need to look more closely at it to see if there are spacers between the frame and hanger bracket. Dissimilar metal corrosion is an issue I deal with often and I'm interested to see how...
I don't care if they use bailing wire, zip ties, and old bubble gum. I'm saying I'm surprised it's not a cheap piece of steel welded to the frame. I'm even more surprised it's a cast aluminum bracket held on with two bolts.
I don't make it a habit to tow things with my passenger side exhaust...
My apologies sir. My intent wasn't to confuse you ... Normally, exhaust hangers are just a simple piece of steel welded to the frame. That type of hanger can hold up to an impact from an activity like, let's say, "normal" off road usage. (I use this activity as a comparison to create an...
I considered that. I was hoping that was the intent but cast aluminium doesn't hold up on kids toys much less a truck. I'm lucky the impact wasn't any harder as the exhaust pipe would've bent the sway bar end link.
