08 FJR,

After about 500 miles the steering bearings loosened up. OBTW this is considered an adjustment and not warrenteed!!! So i was

told at the local dealer. Now i have a clunk in the front end. They checked the torque on the steering nut it was fine. They estimate 75 to 130 smackers to adjust.

The front end clunk is often the brake rotors "floating" on the carriers, not the steering bearings. Make sure you know what the problem is before you try, or pay, to fix it.
