Help... rubbing tires.

Ok, so I go in this morning... I’m told the factory put the stickers on wrong, and the alomites should be on the top so you can get to them Ummm negative... then they say that the brake line mount has to be on the back side... I explain that flipping the UCAs over in switching sides will result in the mounts still being in the aft position, and the picture I’ve seen of the same setup has the alomites on the bottom. I questioned the thought that they would sticker them incorrectly. He said he would call icon to confirm proper orientation.
The knocking in the rear........... bolts holding the bed down..... not there.... forgot about them after spraying the bed. I’m telling you, only on my shit can so much go wrong....
just so that I can have some actual experts put eyes on the rest of the setup... I’ll continue with the pics.. have at em boys:
Front passenger side


Rear driver

 

Either this shop is clueless or they had a new guy working on your baby because these mistakes should have never happened. Very unprofessional

 

agreed

 

I'm curious to see what your alignment numbers are.

 

Bummer all this happened to you, but at least you're on the right track getting it all fixed. Good luck!

 

odd Icon got the stickers on the wrong side on both UCAs....

 

Might be worth it to send the pic to Icon for comment.

 

did you get the Icon leaf pack as well ?

 

Thanks for all the input... great support system working like a well oiled machine right here!! I'm about to head back over there to see what has been done and pick her up. Please let the BS be behind me now...

 

Good luck bud. Make sure they didn't just peel off the stickers and swap them.

 

Add a Leaf.

I'd also like to personally thank you for the good eye spotting the problem with the UCA @TheBeast

 

They'll be sticker less now probably LoL... Later guys, update will be forthcoming.

 

wouldn't the zirk fittings be upside down if they switched them? Looking at @blue16 maybe the zirks should be on the bottom. I know on my TC UCA's they were on the top.

 

Well, they got it right. And, after a four hour ride I can testify that the ride is pretty dang nice. No rubbing, the UCAs are on the correct sides, and the knocks are gone. Can I get an Amen?!!

 

Ahhhh...wrong...they fixed this car.................

 

It's nice how things work when dunrite........

 

Amen!! that is a nice setup and should ride and drive really nice. Glad they corrected everything for you

 

I had an extremely reputable off road shop in the area do the same with my tc uca’s a few weeks ago. Had a new tech in working thay completely fucked a few things up. Luckily I noticed most of it immediately. Made it 3 miles before noticing the uca’s. But took 1,000 mikes and a post here for someone to tell me my drivers side was on backwards...doh

 

I know. Crazy..Another point................What gets me is how did "they" get a decent alignment??????

 

Doing all your own mods and maintenance looks better and better.

These shops are A-OK sending you and your loved ones off to high speeds with missing nuts, backwards UCAs, and eyeball alignments.

I wouldn't trust them to pick up after my dog.

Unless there is a referral from this site, specific to work on Tundras, I trust no one. I've learnt my lesson 'supporting local businesses".

 

I didn’t get the printout but said the guy said it was tough. For my case the tc uca’s are ambidextrous so they put them on “correctly” but upside down making the locking collar on the top and at risk of popping out. So the left side was upside down on right side, etc.

In terms of the coil over being on backwards. No clue how that affects alignment. But I take it back tomorrow to flip.

 

I guess the alignment wouldn't be affected too much. Like you said they were accidentally put on upside down.

 

Good eye!

 

In my defense, I’ve done plenty of work on my own cars and have fucked up plenty. Like trying to put the 100 pieces of of metal for the roof back together on my ‘55

 

AAR: All is well after 600 miles... and she got to play in the Mississippi mud...
