    @EatSleepTacos ... It's been almost a week and the derped tip has seen rain, mud, rock and heat and is still holding up strong. So far, so good.

    Installed my AAL in my saggy ass recall leaf springs. I had serious bro lean going on...they settled to more than an inch lower than my TSB packs with 85k miles on them.... Toyota is pathetic when it comes to leaf packs and our trucks.

    This is a band aid until I can come up with the cash for a set of Dakar's.

    Here she sits, dragging ass before the AAL install.

    IMG_20160603_171110689.jpg

    Later today or in the next week I will bump my 5100's up to 2.5" in the front to clear the way for new 285's that will be coming soon.

    Installed new front brakes and rotors.

    In theory it was easier to do than my BMW motorcycle.

    However Both bottom pins were rusted solid in the calipers. Had to use a punch and a two pound hammer plus some choice cuss words to get them free. I had bought replacement pins. Those were installed with high temp brake silicone grease.

    Still 50% cheaper the what the dealer quoted me. And I bought new rotors where the dealer was going to machine the existing ones.

    Good day!

    Got it out of the garage! My wife and I had a baby about a month ago so we've been using the family vehicle lately... I've missed it for sure.

    congrats on the baby! Did you bring her out into nature? We just had a baby too. My truck hasn't had any trips yet. What wheels are those? Looking to get off my stock
