    Got a few things done today. I had a led strip for my shifter lights and 3 of the 6 LEDs blew out so I found a led replacement bulb. Matches really good with the dash & radio lights. Then took my Uniball caps off after 2 years to inspect. They look pretty good. A little bit of grime & shavings but the caps definitely do there job. Got em cleaned up & put back on.


    This was before clean up right after I took cap off

    After driving, this is a huge difference in visibility. Even notice better rear visibility. The shell limits this but immryo mount helps tremendously.

    Good times. We need to get something else going. Need to test out the new suspension.

    So as I kinda figured those awesome billet clamps weren't going to work out on the rear resi's. They were super tight on pass side do to u bolt flip kit top plate & the e brake line and started rubbing the e brake line and the clamp. So I had to mount the normal way. Glad I caught it before it got real bad. Clamps for sale.


    If anyone wants the clamps let me know.

    That is the cleanest underside of a Tacoma I've ever seen new or used. Where did you get that done?

    As my title states, I get a little OCD when I clean my truck. I rattle canned a lot of the undercarriage so I can do undercarriage wipe downs every oil change. I clean fender wells every wash. I only have 57k on the truck & when it goes in the dirt it gets pressure washed within 24 hrs of return to reality. I'm a little over the top I know.

    Thanks man. My 1st set went 40k and still had 35-40% left but we're soooo cracked in between the treads. I get them through a buddy's shop and after nagging toyo for 6 months they warranted the tires. :thumbsup: These were new in February.

    It's all good. I'm shopping for for tires and I'm running factory BFG's. That Falken Wild Peak AT3W is looking good also. Lol!
