I put some Bosch Platinums +4 in my Taco 2 months ago and I am replacing them tomorrow with NGK's. Lots of pinging. My 3.4 runs like crap. Gas mileage seems worse. Stick with OEM.

Question 3.4L Head gasket replacement (Pics)

I have 265/75/R16Toyo MT's on my 00 taco and they rubbed a bit. It was more annoying than anything and happened more often when turning right. A 3in lift took care of it.
