Welcome to Tacoma3G.com, a free resource for 2016-2023 Toyota Tacoma owners!
Tacoma3G is a beginner-friendly 3rd Generation Toyota Tacoma Forum (2016-2023 model-years). We are a community of people who are focused on good information and good vibes.
Update on my end. I was tired of trying to get the tacoma to drive really nice (rack bushings definitely helped), but in the end it was going to be a never ending chase so i traded it in. 2017 Silverado 3500hd with the L5P. 910lbft is so refreshing. Its no offroad machine I know. Taco...
I was thinking about that afterwards. Top bushings for sure. Lower bushings maybe. There’s another guy I work with who I’m sure will order them up now and install. We will give it a shot on his.
To get the movement you would need out of the rack, you will at a minimum need to get the steering...
So after the 40mile drive home, I can say it is definitely worth it. Improvement is about 85%. Delrin would be better IMO but it’s a very noticeable improvement as is with the poly bushings.
Air hammer for removing the old bushings. It really wasn’t bad at all. I could probably do the whole thing in 2 hours next time minus alignment. Don’t be a hack and use worm clamps or zip ties on the inner boot clamps. Plenty of room to use oetiker clamp pliers in there. The driver side clamp...
2 hours and it’s going back in. Worst part so far was cutting the bolts Carbide bits worked better then my hackzall. Probably wasted 30 mins in that alone.
I held off for so long because I was going to get rid of the taco after getting a travel trailer. With the semiconductor shortage I’m not getting the Sierra I want for probably another year now so I figured I’ll throw them in and find out if that is the actual cause of the 3rd gen wander. I...
Ever get this done? I’m finally going to tackle this on Saturday. I had the front diff out twice when going 5.29 then back to Stock gears. Would have been a better time having that out of the way.
Just a heads up to anyone who may be looking for these guys in the future. The name was changed to Outlaw Offroad. Apparently people were assuming they only did bumpers.
I looked around at different sliders for my truck and I didn't want to deal with shipping, and am a total instant gratification addict. I finally came across Badland Bumpers in Kent, WA and reached out on their IG page for a slider quote. It was $650 installed (weld on), same day turn around...
My two work boxes, apparently my only photo of my main box has my gravel cruiser infront of it.
Home garage I've managed to stuff a crapload of tools into that China Freight cart (which needs replacing at this point). I use quickjacks as well for home duty.
How did the rest of this job go for you? I've had the bushings for over a year just waiting to be installed when I have a weekend I have nothing else going on.
This is bad info and I see posted all the time, which is probably why you thought it was worth repeating. (Im not trying to be an ass, just pointing out how this happens)
TSB = Techical Service Bulletin. It is only free while under warranty. You pay for it after the warranty expires. It...
