Yeah because he can afford to pay a mechanic to do so. They’re probably charging the customer $4,000 for all this. When the parts cost probably $900 combined. Mechanics are a rip off. Do the work yourself. Also that moog pitman arm has a ton of bad reviews online. Another issue paying a mechanic to do the work for you, they use the cheapest parts without checking to see if they’re good quality just to maximize their profit and a lot of times the parts go bad just days outside the warranty period. Mechanics are for lazy people afraid of a few grease stains on their cloths.

I replaced the Bilsteins shocks at 92,500 miles only because they began to leak. I used KYB Monomax struts and shocks as replacements. Runner seals will dry amd overall certain fluids needs to be flushed due to the breakdown (age, heat, etc) brake fluid and power steering should be flushed very 30-35,000 miles. Drive your Tundra on the highway as well, it serves to heat the engine for about a 30-40 miles stretch a few times a year. It helps heat up the engine and get rid of the carbon build up in the valve areas.

What does cause the rust in the NE? Is it salt on the roads? I remember from when I lived in Detroit in the early 1970s that Detroit cars (salt sprayed roads) suffered from rust a lot more than Windsor cars (no salt spraying). I live on the east coast of Australia, about 100 miles north of Sydney. It's a five to ten minute walk to the nearest beach. It can get uncomfortably humid at times, but we have an almost perfect climate most of the time. We don't seem to have a vehicle rust problem except for people like commercial off-the-beach fishermen.
