    That's an 08 Sport Trac ADRENALIN edition. About as rare as they are ugly. Not that it matters, they're still ugly as sin.

    Are floor mats a mod?
    I wondered, cuz it said expedition on it, and the front kinda looks like one. I thought it looked like the '17 spy photos, but now that I look at them again, the new one is a lot more rounded in front.
    My bad.
    Still ugly tho....
    For some reason looking at it made me angry... Perhaps I need therapy.......

    I have a weldpak 100 that I purchased to learn on (I still don't have the slightest idea what I'm doing) but I'll bring it along if you're coming up tomorrow. Fair warning it's gasless and I can't recall what wire I've got in it.

    Last piece of the puzzle arrives tomorrow! The IFS skid (backordered). Hoping to get the exhaust reroute Tuesday or Wednesday but I got hit with jury duty so who knows. Bare aluminum. Thinking about slapping some adhesion promoter and black paint just to keep the darkened look. Am I correct on using denatured alcohol to clean or is there a better choice?
    Still trying to work out the CKMTA12 install and decided to install the ARB Differential Breather after all.
    Any input is always welcome.

    Holy shit. Just realized my shackle flip is supposed to arrive tomorrow. 2 day shipping from NY. Departed on the 24th. I went with the archive garage kit. A little worried about an extra inch of projected lift combined with the dakars ~2.75" of lift. We'll see what happens.

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/2005-2016-archive-garage-premium-shackle-flip-lift-kit.403630/

    I may be a bit late as I'll be waiting at the mail box tomorrow for it to show. :D @Greddy

    That and still trying to track down a coil compressor. Would like to swap coils also. Either way I'll be down there.

    You'll get my results in the next week or so. I'll be gone at fishing camp next weekend, the 1st to the 3rd, so I'm trying to get shit done before then. Need to order new rear shocks and brake line extensions. Shocks will have to wait until I can cycle the suspension and find suitable shocks. My current ones are blown. I've been also thinking about triangulating the rear shocks by welding in a cross bar between the frame above the rear axle.

    I'm in fall city, but was going to goto cams tomorrow and BS, and most likely finish up my heated mirror install. If the postal service doesn't take all day to deliver the shackle kit those too. Should be jist grinding off old stock parts and bolting up the shackle kit. The shock triangulating will most likely happen some time in April. I've got some fab work set aside from a buddy that did my sliders and owes me so he'll be the one to weld the cross bar in and mounts/bolts for the rear shocks.

    Pic for example

    I'm in the same place with the OBA, same compressor, have a stack of parts to go in, just have to decide where! Current thought is drivers taillight bulkhead with at small Firestone tank mounted up inside by the wheel well, going to eventual locker, and to an air chuck on each side under the front of the bed. Only because I don't want it buzzing under the back seat.

    You?

    Still planning to locate behind the back seat for a clean environment to maintain the life of the unit. Ultimate plan is to add tank at rear under the bed.

    Yeah, I'm vacillating between the two. Gonna mock it all up 1st. Concerned about the long wire run to the back reducing the unit performance ie the voltage drop even with bigger wire. We'll see...
