    Didn't wanna post a new thread for this.. Looking for validation on some of these numbers I'm getting with my fuel trims, O2 sensors, and air/fuel ratios. Just a couple snapshots at idle and 2k rpm. Real-time graphs would be better I know, but figured this would be enough to get an idea she's running well enough or if anything looks out of range to you guys..

    Made great progress on my rear dual swing out bumper; hopefully finish tomorrow! The welds are nothing short of terrible, but it's strong and I have a grinder.

    It's less Tacoma and more mod
    If your using those bolts as swingout spindles then I'm sorry to say I very highly doubt they'll be strong enough. There is a reason why the spindles they sell for swingout arms are so freaking beefy. Good luck, I like the shape of the bumper.

    Thanks, yeah I have a plan that will probably support the load without failing. The ¾ hex bolt has more than enough shear and moment strength for the max applied load. If not, I'll weld a channel segment from the bumper to the top of the bolt.

    Had the pair of General grabber HTS 60 mounted (stock size). While there I had the guy weigh the stock 16 wheel. 24 lbs. I won't upgrade until I have money to burn (countersteers) for only 6lbs per corner. And I was smelling coolant yesterday and the temp was high on the way home.

    The green LEDs arrived. Just the tranny light for now, others later.

    image.jpg Camper topper tent worked great, gives me a little more leg room with the short box. Had the tarp on top just in case.

    For the life of me I can't get my transmission temp to work properly. What app are you using? With what phone?

    If you have a 3/8" ratchet and metric socket set I bet you can do it yourself.
    I did and it wasn't too bad of a job.
    Good luck - you'll like them!

    Hey all,
    Looking at going OME dakar on the rear of my prerunner and will be doing the same in front to level out for eventually a bumper
    Since this isn't a 4WD/heavy wheeling, Will i get a lot of gain from replacing the UCA's?
