    The same shit everyone else has.
    Nothing. I ditched the stock steel spare with the OEM tire for a matching TRD Sport wheel and 265 Duratrac. I mounted the tire myself at home with a set of spoons back in the spring and just installed it back on the truck with out having it balanced at time. I like the idea of having a matching spare

    They most certainly do. The little rubber bumpers on them will rub through the paint after a while.

    Installed my new Mad Max shift knob! Downloaded the file and had it locally 3D printed. Intend to paint it up at some point, worn chrome, or some metallic look.

    You could just have one 3D printed with metal. Idk if it's possible with this particular model because I know next to none about 3D printing, but it is quite a bit more expensive.

    I saw metal options on the commercial 3D printer sites, but I ended up using 3dhubs if I recall the name right, and everyone local was mostly ABS or other plastics.

    Tightened up the spring on the Ol armrest to support the extra weight.

    I just took the plastic covers off of the bracket, pulled the 4 screws, pulled the bracket out. Pry one side of the mount up (where the rod goes through) and using a screw driver I tapped it out. I then took a pair of needle nose pliers and twisted the spring once and fed the rod back threw to hold it in place. then I pinched the bracket back down using a vise and reinstalled. It was a P.I.T.A. but It's possible.
