Damn, I just put new cheap strut and spring assemblies on the front of my 2006 tundra. and new sway bar links. just 2 days driving over some bumps into town and the left sway bar link loosened and the rt side strut bushing is already smashed. I wish I watched your video because I torqued the bottom bolt down before putting the tire back on and lowering and I didn’t know not to. It seams like thats prob what smashed the bushing so fast after watching this. I first thought it was just the cheap bushing. Perhaps both. Any feedback would be appreciated. 2006 tundra. I feel I have to save up quick for nicer struts now and not tighten them on till the truck is lowered. 🤦🏻♂️ Thanks for this video, very helpful. I bought cheap shocks for back and front control arms. I am weary of them now. Ill never buy the cheap stuff again. I wonder if its even worth putting them on the back at all. I thought it would be better than the worn out ones but not if I have to just replace rt away.
I didn't drive it but it's more than just about feel it's a safety issue when it comes to handling and braking. But he did tell me "it feels alot better"
What do you use for a camera? I really want to try and start making videos. I'm always doing something in my garage atleast a couple times a week on top of my full time job. I do alot of side work. Just looking for what would be the best camera for me. I've never done any filming, so it'll be a learning curve for me. Just trying to get the best advice I can before I go buy anything
@@GibsonGarage ok I was thinking a go pro would work good for me. I want to use a head mount and chest mount sometimes. I'm gonna order the stuff and give it a try. I was just worried cause I see alot of people say they lost the audio on go pros
@@frankhartford5194 I was having problems at First losing data but then I switch to a larger 250 something name brand SD card and there also was an update since I owned it recently but either way haven't had a problem since
@@GibsonGarage ok thanks for taking time to answer me. I need to get set up because I have a couple good ideas on videos I need to do on my 300c. Also have a variety of cars come in. Gonna invest in a low ceiling lift soon too.
Those old shock absorbers you put in are garbage. I put them in once and lasted about three months with them and decided to buy Blisten 4600 and I had the concern of taking apart the springs and checking if the shock absorbers were still good and to my surprise when I pressed them, it stayed down there and didn't come back.
Always return OEM shocks back into the car. After market shocks or suspension parts will destroy your driving performance. You want that cloud feel driving well put back OEM
need advise on if I can changeout my old struts on my 2013 4x4 crewmax tundra with the new struts from a 2024 4x4 crew max tundra. please tell me they will or will not work?
You're the only guy that explained the bushings and that's what I was looking for. Thanks!!!!
Not used to seeing the underside of a Tundra with NO rust! Nice job!

Very helpful video but here is the real question, does it ride significantly better now?

I have no idea but you should make that video
2024 and 2013 are different. You can use 2021 tundra shocks for your 2013
