    Help! Cruise Control Sensor

    So I drive a 2022 TSS Tacoma and it has that sensor BS where if you’re in cruise control at say 80mph and a car gets in front of you or you come up behind them and they’re going slower then you it will slow you down and keep you at approximately 3 car lengths from them to keep you from wrecking...

    4th Gen Tacoma Which Trim to buy

    So I recently sold my 3rd gen (2017) back in late April of 22. Traded it on a Chevy. Since then I’ve started a new job where they gave me a 2022 TSS Tacoma as a work truck, and it’s pretty much stock with a leveling kit up front and ATs. So my Chevy has literally been sitting in my yard for...

    Upper and Lower Control Arms

    So I’ve been told that UCA’s and LCA’s help with alignment and I’m interested in getting SPC uppers and either Dirt King or Total Chaos lowers. My first question is: is alignment the only reason for getting upper and/or lowers. Second: Which one is more important to get first? Third: What is...

    OVTune KD Max tune first or 5.29 Regear first?

    So I want to do both, and the reason I’m asking is like do you need a tune immediately after a regear? Or do you drive it for a week or two then tune it? Just wondering cause the tuner is 2 hours away and I’d rather not have to tune it then regear then have to drive back down there to update...

    Sirius XM

    So I recently got a free 6 month subscription to Sirius XM from buying concert tickets. My truck is a 2017 and is compatible with Sirius XM. Once they activated it the other day they sent a signal to my trucks radio but it never would pop up. I asked my local Toyota dealer about it and...

    Truck pulling to the right real bad

    So I’ve done a post about this previous but I thought I’d go back into it now that I have an alignment sheet. I finally went to an alignment shop the other day that actually gives out alignment sheets and the guy tells me that the truck is perfectly in line. He checks the frame and all the...

    Clutch slipping / Regear needed?

    So it seems for a while my truck has had trouble shifting gears at random times where it’ll basically studder for like 5 seconds and keep re-accelerating until it finally goes into gear. Today it did it pretty bad, worse than ever before, for like 10 seconds. To the point where I was worried...

    Steering Stabilizers

    So my truck is constantly pulling to the right and nothing I’ve done will help. I’ve paid for alignments and it literally does nothing. I’ve gotten the tires rotated because sometimes if one tire is more worn down than the others it can pull that way, and it still doesn’t help. My buddy has a...

    Power Steering Rack

    So I had to replace my power steering rack last summer and actually ended up getting one from a salvage yard off a totaled 4Runner. My guess is that the big tires and lift put so much strain on the rack that it made it go out. — So my question is, has anyone bought an aftermarket rack to help...

    Maintenance ECT Power Button

    So I usually will run the ECT power button while driving highways so that my truck is not as sluggish. It gives it a better throttle response but slightly less mpg. Keep in mind that I have a 6” with 35s. Now I have a maintenance light on and I had it read and it says that it is something...

    Bed Rattling

    Why would my bed be rattling as I’m hitting bumps/light humps? I looked into getting bed stabilizers but apparently those are made for when the bed is shifting from left to right due to off-roading with or without there being weight in the bed, not from bouncing up and down. It seems to only...

    Shocks

    So I am currently debating getting either King or Fox shocks for my 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport 4x4. It has a 6” lift with 35x18s. So far the truck has rode like absolute crap. The other options I have considered is to either convert to a 3” lift and or just convert back to a leveling kit. I have also...

    Shocks or Regear?

    Hello everyone, I am new to the forum life so I hope I’m doing this right. So I have a 2017 Tacoma TRD Sport 4x4 with 35x18x12.5 Atturos with a 6” Pro Comp Lift. So I got the truck in 2018 and have been driving it every since mainly on highways about a 3 hour trip to and from my hometown and my...
