Chris,
In my opinion you would be making a mistake to purchase a rig that has had
an axle recall unless you had imediate plans to replace the axle and the
price of the unit was reflective of the need for a $2000 repair and still a
good deal at that. It's not that it will ruin your day if your axle breaks
off it's that it can kill you or some other folks on the road. The National
Highway Transortation Safety Administration does not issue recalls litely,
nor does Toyota participate in such a recall without good reason. Remember
what can and does happen. The axle breaks and the wheels leave the vechile
taking rear brakeing with them.
If it isn't a good deal after adding the price of the axle fix it isn't a
good deal.

I really want a toyota rv, and I've read the messages for 3 months
now, but.. I get really excited when one comes up for sale in my city
and IF I buy one with the 1/2 ton axle, am I definitely asking for
disaster? can I change the bearings and take light weekend trips
(300mi. roundtrip) until I find a 1ton replacement?? I couldnt take a
long trip(days or weeks travel)anytime soon,so I wouldnt be putting
myself in a position of trouble for a while, so what do you folks
think? I will trust the experience and knowledge of the group, I just
get worried that I wont see another sunraider model as cheap as this
one. thanks chris
