Kansas,
Thank you for the Information about the Collision Repair Manual. The Collision Repair Manual does not seem to be something you can get along with the 3 Volumes of the Repair Manual when you call the 800 Number. I have them. Do you know if the Collision Repair Manual is available online only for us, or on paper? Where can I obtain it? I very much appreciate your help. I have had no luck with the 800 Number in our Manual or Online.
Thank you,
Walt

Thank you, I have read the repair manual links before. I don't mean to drag this out but....the File Sharing links are no longer valid and the Resource Site only has a pirated copy of the 3 Volume Repair Manual that I have the 3 Volumes of on Paper. Is the Collision Repair Manual something I can pay for at the Toyota Website?

I suggest you contact Matt at TRDsource.com (at vendor member of this forum). He is associated with TRD and Toyota, located in northern California and has always been helpful. He can get any Toyota or TRD part number, including manuals and ship them to you. They are not show on the product list of his website, but I know he can get what you want and maybe even has in stock.

Re: Engine Bay Body Rips

The engineers looked at my rig today. I was told that they could not find any reason for my body rips. All my mods and the way that I wheel did not cause the problem. They did say that they were going to replace the inner fenders with the new style fenders. These are not a redesigned fender.They are produced by a different supplier. They also told me if it were to happen again in my 3year/ 36,000 miles that they would replace it again. They have no answers for what has caused these rips. Hopefully this will solve the problem, but I'm not going to hold my breath. After the repair I will be checking for bulges on a regular basis. I'm glad and thankful that Toyota is stepping up and fixing the problem. I would also suggest that anyone showing any signs of this take it in before your warranty is up. It apears its going to be a case by case issue. Hopefully if enough vehicles come forward Toyota will figure out a permanent solution. I would also like to thank everyone that was active in this thread.
Thanks
Bernd

Re: Engine Bay Body Rips

Very glad to hear you will be TCOD!! A friend had a Nissan Maxima (04) I think and it had a rear subframe issue...he lost a lot on it beyond the expected depreciation.

I am at 20K and no issues but I might trade down to a 4-door Taco. I dont want to deal with this and an even steeper depreciation and then be out of warranty and have this not covered. Not cool.

But I really enjoy the FJ. Crap just got it all cleaned up, washed, waxed and ready for date night...

Great news Bear! As you may have noticed I was tied up all day and didn't get to call. I'll try tomorrow.

Did they give you any idea of what the "new inner fenders" were? I think we're all interested in what they are and if they are similar to the 07 builds.

cheers,

dale
