How can i find your location, to inspect my vehicle. I like the way u working.
WOW great info. AAAAAAAAAAA++++++++++++ again great video I liked it a lot keep up the great work
For over a thousand bucks a piece, I would probably only replace only one leaf too.
Well Tundra has the weakest frame, so maybe that's why the weak spring broke, watch Ford F150 vs Chevy Silverado vs Dodge Ram vs Toyota Tundra and see the tundra try and throw the bed clear off the frame, don't buy this junk
You can replace just one suspension spring. It may not be ideal but it'll work fine. Some people online act like cars are like a surgical precision machine or something.
Battery, fuel tank, driver's weight all on the driver side, I would be tempted to just change the one spring and try it out. You probably remedied any "Toyota lean" issue. I am sure it will be fine. I love your channel/created content so please keep creating. My wife and I only drive drive Toyotas after being let down by Mazda, GM and Ford. The only other shop channel that I watch is South Main Auto. He also is "real world" when it comes to cheap customers needs. It is nice that you give customers the option when it comes to the cost versus value. Mr. O from South Main will get junkyard replacement parts when it makes repairs economically feasible. Have you ever thought of doing a "collaberation video" with another Toyota/shop channel?
scotty kilmer is here to take notes and learn something
Great job Peter!
Comment for YT BS
Don’t they sell a aftermarket leaf spring set for a lot cheaper ? Or do they ihave to be OEM ? Thanks friend.
Peter job well done! Thanks for the entertainment and expertise.
Love your channel! Keep up the great work.
Petah! Do you remember at the stealership when you were working there was a Toyota penetrating catalyst? It was a silver can with red label. I forgot the name. But it was Toyota brand. It kind of pees out of the can in a very weak stream and it's very rusty colored. I notice you use PB brand. And most techs I noticed, never use it. They like you, use the PB or the other one called Liquid Wrench, but rarely. Any opinion on the Toyota brand if it works faster? Or better like Toyota FIPG over any other gasket maker? Yes two different things penetrant vs gasket, but wondering if the Toyota brand is not as good and three times as expensive as usual for dealer things.. personally I think used brake fluid or ATF+acetone. Or Kroil.
Peter, Here is a NEWSFLASH for you, the next Tundra will use rear COIL springs!
Could have just used Superglue and saved yourself all that trouble.
Why does the new part have greater camber on the bottom leaf.

This is a good man, doing his best. I absolutely love his accent, and he is purposely thorough.
No complaints from me, my 06Tundra is thoroughly used, daily.
Who owned that vehicle? Drug runners? Coyotes? How do you explain that?
Nice repair Peter. And of course you offered different options to people who obviously aren't swimming in money. I would even put a used leaf in there, no problem.
You can make knives from that extra steel too!
Your sense of humor is so funny. Thanks for the instruction and for the laughs.
Have a great day Peter.
When i was younger I use to abuse my back like that and now I am paying for it. Be careful
This Beater Deserves a playlist 🙂 I would like to see videos of the owner Putting This Truck to the Test. LoL Love your Channel.
Toyota "Off-Road" Maintenance YouTube Channel, Love it.
Did you consider getting a used replacement leaf spring at pick n pull? so the two side would be kinda worn similar…
