    New to the area and looking for a Taco-friendly service/repair shop in Sarasota or Bradenton. Local dealer has actually been great to work with, but I'm out of warranty now so...

    Thank you for any suggestions!

    I have the ECGS bushing removal tool (modified), and the bushing install tool, with the oil seal install adapter. If you are up for doing this maintenance yourself, you could borrow these tools. DM me if you want to discuss.

    @thomasburk Thank you for the offer, but I'm not set up to do such work on my own.

    I live in Sarasota but am brand new to the Tacoma. There is a new 4wheelparts store in Bradenton near the old Desoto Mall./

    Thanks for the link, @floridalawdog

    It's helpful to know that we can buy toys for our Toys, but I'm looking for a Toyota-friendly repair shop.

    I found Toy House online, but it's 52 miles north of my house: https://toyotalexusrepair.com

    Are there no such Toyota friendly shops (other than dealers) in the Bradenton/Sarasota area?

    None that I know of. Tampa is probably the best bet.

    Hey Timbo, I am looking for a place that sells and installs front and rear bumpers, sliders, winch, tire carrier, etc. Shipping is crazy on that stuff and I would like to stay local. Is this something that you do?

    Can definitely help on sliders. Send me a DM and we can figure out what type of bumpers you’re wanting.
