That sounds pretty good. Might give the guy a call.

 

If you guys looking for a good detailer check out MatCo motoring in pearlcity/aiea. They do an awesome job and are decently priced. If anyone is interested lmk shoot me a pic of your truck and I can get a price from them.

Just to get a feel for it they did my sister armada- shampoo/detail interior, hand wash/wax,engine bay cleaning, fender well clean for $220

 

I go to modern detail by ward when I'm to lazy to do it myself mike is good and he does awesome work I used to go to Shea's before

 

Can anyone tell me if the Otrattw Contura V switches would fit in the lower console area in the blank area near the USB plug? I'm referring about these:

I have them in mine. They will fit but you have to dremel out the opening.

 

Nice!!! Thanks, Dana. I'm on the site now…so bad, spending $$$. LOL

 

Air on board.... they have the 2 different sized switches for the truck.. push button.

 

Just remember, if you dremel out the openings to fit these OTRATTW switches, your stock size blanks and switches will not be able to be secured in there after that.

 

Right here, I use the AOB for the left dash and center console with no complaints except for the for illumination distribution.

 

Got an order in yesterday from Boss4x4, thanks Sarah. UCA'S form All pro, OME886'S, Dakar rear leaf packs with the AAL and bushings, U-boat flip kit with tibrems, extended brake lines, superbump bump stops. all gotta do is get the new UCA bolts from Toyota and make an appointment to get it installed.

 

I just thought of this, do I need new center pins for the leaf pack since I'm adding the AAL? And, if anybody has the Dakars with the AAL, which position does the AAL go on the leaf pack? That thing is almost as long as the 2nd or 3rd leaf from the top.

 

What's wrong with yours?

If you have some threads(1/2" or so) showing on the new pack, you should be good.. if they cut it down to to less than 1/4" above the nut, then may need a new one.

I'll look later about the AAL placement. I forget... maybe @luka remembers. Also, I used a shim on the bottom of the pack. I believe Mike has one as well.... may or may not "need" the shim, but doesn't hurt to put it in the first time.

 

Hmmm, Maybe I should get the shim too. Just checked out Wheeler's off road, and the shims come with new center pins. Maybe the carrier bearing drop too?
BTW, when doing the CMC, where does one get the bracket/plate? I've seen it on the BAMF site, anyplace else have um?

 

Pretty sure you need a new center pin...home depot, the round allen key type fits perfect. I forget what measurements... The AAL is the same size as the second leaf from the top. It can either go under or over it, so 2nd or 3rd leaf from the top one.

 

Thanks kumz.

 

shit, with the HC rear bumper, I gotta throw in my AAL for the Dakars too haha. Sucker is heavy

 

Did you already cut your fenders?

 

no, gonna start in a little bit

 

Good luck bro. Straight lines... always remember, measure twice, maybe three or four times,,, cause you can only cut once.

 

I think I have the carrier bearing spacers but don't think I have shims under the leaf pack, as my drive angle when I measured it was ok.

however my rear drive shaft is shorter than stock so you may still need it.
