I couldn't get them to sit straight due to the taper of the flange. I wound up stripping on of the nuts on the u-bolt. Now I gotta rig something else up. If the dang brackets were about 3/4" taller it would clear. I finally took them off. If they don't sit flush with the underside of the leaf...
Well, I got my traction bars in today and they don't fit. Dang it! From looking at the images posted it looks as if the lower shock perch on my truck is different. Mine has the same outboard shock mount but the mounting plate the bolts to the underside of the leaf springs has a downward curved...
Correct me i'm wrong. It looks like if there is any type of spacer block to lower the rear the traction bars won't fit. If you look at the u-bolts that secure the bar to the leaf spring it looks long enough. But if there is a 1" or 2" block the bar barckets that contacts the leafs underside may...
What the he!$!!! Thats no way to treat an X-Runner. She should be shot, strung, quartered and slapped for doing that. Man, you wanna sling mud go buy a 4X4. What a waste. On the other hand it ain't my truck so....:thumpdown:
I've been running the C2C kit for about 8 months now. I hated that knockkneed look of neg. camber. I cut the spacers to give a 1" front drop. Since the spacer sleeves are hardened I had a machine shop cut one section to a 1" length and the other to a hair less that 3/4". You lose alittle...
DANG!!! Absolutely beautiful X man! Thats a cherry choice of colors. Man, I wish Toyota would step it up an offer the XR in more colors like Flint Mica or Indigo Ink. The X-Runners a great looking truck. You just raised the bar. Good work.:top:

The TRD S/C will be released in 2 to 3 weeks. My parts dept. will be getting the part numbers soon from the distributor. Yeah,yeah. I know all you nay sayers say it's too late or it'll never happen. It will be out. The S/C for the Tundra 5.7 will also be relesed shortly. It was being developed...
Yeah, thats "if" they can take you in immediately a s a walk-in customer. On some trucks you don't even need any tools. Just reach under the dash, turn the shaft and your done.

I agree. But if theres a remedy that you can do that takes all of 1 minute to do without letting someone you may not trust work on your ride than I would try the "tacoturbo" fix. Just kidding about the "tacoturbo" part. See asiantaco's thread on this. Worked for alot of fellow XR owners...
Sticky?? Rotate shaft?? Uh, what are you talking about? Ah just toyin' witgh you Asiantaco. Rotating a sticky shaft at 1:40am could mean a whole lotta other things hahaha.:laugh:
Cool! It feels good to help out fellow Taco owners. Kinda makes you wonder why nobody at the factory level didn't figure this one out. Was so dang simple.:stupid: Costed zero money and 20 seconds of your time. Hmmmm.
