im going to go in on weds to get an apt set up for mine. makes me wonder what they're gonna say about the BJ spacers :p

 

Just got mine back and it's good to go. No gouging

seems to drive a little firmer. Nothing said about any problems or needing replacement parts.

Thanks for the heads up guys. I would have never known about this w/o this forum!

 

Same thing here.

 

anyopne with a superlift 4 inch suspension lift go in yet ? it goingot be real funny if they try and hit me for new parts since i just repalced all of the parts except for the relay rod LOL
new idler arm and all, stupid me though i went and had an alignment done , of course i didnt want to wait for toyota to tel lme the part is 6 months out or anything. im calling tomorrow to get the scoop

 

Last month, I had the T100 in for service at my local toy shop (not a dealer).
They said my left and right ball joints were "bad", and that the idler arm had play. So I had them lift the truck and the tech showed me the play by simply moving one of the tires back and forth.

So I need some recommendations on how to proceed.
I'll need both ball joints replaced, the idler arm, and the relay rod as part of the recall.

Should I take it in to the shop and get the ball joints/idler arm replaced, and then go into the dealer for the relay rod?
I can't imagine I'll get ahead by letting the dealer do it all!

 

Does your Superlift kit use the stock relay rod? Mine replaced it with a Superlift part.

 

Mine didn't come with one for some reason. Here's the kit I ordered, it lists all of the parts. I am going to call my dealer tomorrow.

Somebody could call for me? I've never heard of recalls in Spain (Yeah, here Toyota sales trucks and cars, later of paying you don't exist for them...)

My 4Runner is diesel but except for cosmetics and the engine is almost the same.

My VIN # is JT111GND0008004200.

If someone can make me this favour I'll be very please

So has anyone actually gotten one of the Service Campaign letters yet?
I see that several of you have gotten the service done, but did you just ask the dealer to do it or did Toyota contact you first?

 

I am still waiting from Toyota to contact me so they can do the service on my 4Runner. It has been a month. I am starting to loose faith....

 

You don't need the letter in hand. Just take it in. They will run the VIN and tell you if your's is in the program.

 

i just made an appointment with the dealer for monday at 7!

I am sure they will say i need a new inner tie rod and idler arm. I think I will just pay for that stuff. But anyways I don't have to wait since the dealer finally has the vin#

 

I called the 800 number above as I'm not the original owner and woulndt have gotten a letter.

Toyota Corporate verified by VIN # that I qualified for the recall over the phone, and directed me to the nearest dealer and said I didnt need anything to get it done. In the shop the next day and out the day after that. Easy Cheesy.

hey blair!

just catching up on some of the posts, i checked the list that 4hummer hosted, my vin isnt on the list. i had the same troubles with tc and the stealer as others have mentioned. i did call tc and gave them my information so i should be getting something soon.

Is this something that's important to get done?

 

considering it is steering related, yes.

canada residents, are we included?

 

Just called, my appt. is on Monday at 7:30am...

 

I'm Canadian. Just had mine done this past Wednesday. Yes we are included.

 

Was your VIN on the published list?
Or did you call the dealer or Toyota?
Or maybey the Canadian stock is just more sturdy???
