I had brake dust shield noise twice on the Tundra.

 

I watched it twice and my simple Tennessee brain couldn't comprehend. All I got was that sway bar=mostly good.

 

Because the sway bar is connected to both wheels, when one wheel is up, like on a rock, there is more downward force added by the bar to that wheel with the other wheel down (trying to force the bar down). That adds combined spring rate with your COs to the up wheel. That's good because the wheel trying to go over the rock is the one you want to have more traction.

In whoops, a bar adds more side to side roll, than no bar with the wheels acting independently.

 

I have a 2" front lift and did not need to extend the sway bar links. 2" is pretty much the perfect lift in terms of low negative impact and not needing to modify things, except of course for the lift itself.

Derp! didnt realize this is for 1st gen lol

 

I think it applies.

 

I bought the links just because I wanted links. This Tundra I should name "extra parts"

 

@Vallejo206 - your truck is beautiful

 

Well, they are useful if you are high-ish up front. I had a bent stock one when I changed to the Maxx ones

 

I'm so low in front I may as well give it a second name of anteater.

 

Shoot, I’ll check. That would be a simple fix. It just started about a week ago though.

 

Jack that side up and spin the wheel by hand, if you haven't. That may tell a lot.

 

Im curious if this is it, I have a similar noise as well which started after replacing the suspension. I probably bent it accidentatlly but my noise seems to subside when applying the brakes... @CodyP let me know what you discover.

 

thanks man.
Just trying to keep up with the joneses.

 

Built a temp platform for doggo, my LC buddy made a good suggestion for a permanent structure; build a frame/base that will use current mounting holes, and put my platform on top of that with a hinge for some extra storage!
New grass at work, I got #2 and #4, not quite tall/wide enough to cover my tailgate like I had hoped. Tomorrow im diving deep!

don’t worry @AZBoatHauler your not the only LC friend I have

 

Made some magic happen!

 

ohh, Kicker

 

Hahaha my buddy at work said the same thing, I was like don’t get to excited

 

Too late

 

The PO was kinda audio head so he upgraded a few things, but definitely not on the level of other members

 

Well, I just have that old JBL powered plug and play from back in the day. Grass looks fun, btw.

I'll 1-up that Peter with some Pato.

Is he mentioning/baggin on tosh in the beginning that he does coke

 

Not that I'm aware of. If it's the verse I'm thinking of, he's just mentioning he did a song, called Allo Tosh, with the lyric 'allo tosh gotta Toshiba'.

They're both talking about flower. Pato can be tough to understand for some, thick Brit accent.

 

I’m usually bad about deciphering lyrics anyways, but thanks for the new artist to check out, last week was Alan Jackson, now I’ll try some Pato!

 

Just now checking out Alan Jackson?

Too pop-country for me. I swear Livin' on Love comes on the radio damn near non-stop. Western swing, honky-tonk, rockabilly, outlaw, bluegrass and whatever the hell a lot of people call neotraditional country" are more up my alley.

It's probably pretty cliche to be, like, "Ugh, I hate anything on the radio!" but there's so much better stuff out there.

 

I’m definitely sheltered musical wise…….

 

I love music. There's very little I don't listen to, I've always hung out with a pretty wild variety of people in my lifetime.

I've seen some of the awesome stuff other guys around here have tossed out, like @5N0W808, @alb1k, @chrisb and others. You've got a wealth of resources here if you ever want to go exploring...

 

People across the street have a live band playing. Kinda like a soft rock/country mix. Not too bad.
