    Hi all, been reading your posts for a long time. Recently became a member. Time I introduce my truck. Years back, I traded my 2007 Prius for my 2003 Tundra TRD. Love my truck, spent a lot on it but mostly upkeep and maintenance. The only thing that actually went bad on me was the driveshaft center support bearing and that didn't even break. Got 184,000 miles and ready for the next 100K miles. Thanks to this forum and the wealth of information here, I went with Bilstein 5100s all around with the front on middle setting to level truck. Hellwig sway bars front and back and Spidertrax spacers. Spidertrax spacers were purely cosmetic but boy does the truck handle well with the Hellwig sway bars(on mid setting) and much softer ride now with the Bilstein 5100s.

    The best thing I've done for my truck cost me next to nothing and it's all thanks to this forum, greasing my driveshaft's 8 zerk points and using Ford's X6-8 grease on the slip yoke. Dealer, mechanic, nor a drive shaft specialty shop knew of the 8 zerks but you all did. Totally changed the drive and no more thump when I stop thanks to Ford's x6-8 grease. Smooooothhh.

    Just really grateful for all I've learned here, hopefully I can contribute back one day.
