This is What a 2000-03 Toyota Tundra Replacement Frame Looks Like - PickupTrucks.com
actually, this probably wasn't the smartest thing for toyota to do. best case scenario, they fix all the problems and everyone waks away happy. worst case scenario, every single frame that was replaced contributes to new problems or doesnt work. i for one would not let toyota take off the frame and stick all the old stuff back on a new frame. if it were me, id make them replace every single thing before it gets put on a new frame. i would rather get between $5-10,000 for my next truck then to have toyota replace the frame. Officials were also investigating whether Toyota waited nearly a year in 2005 to recall trucks and SUVs in the U. S. with defective steering rods, a case that could lead to additional fines. There must be a better solution than having to replace the frame. I will admit, they're stuck between a rock and a hard place: Replacing a first gen tundra with the current tundra is like replacing a Colorado with a Silverado. Guys, Toyota has been replacing the 2001-2004 Tacoma frames for a while now. Some dealers have done a number of Tacomas, so the Tundra frame replacement will be old hat for them. The frame replacement includes a number of suspension components and lines. Source: news.pickuptrucks.com
