    Magnuson designed and built the TRD charger and when TRD dropped the chargers from their sales Magnuson decided to sell it under their own name. Same thing just doesn't have the little TRD badges.

    The same goes for the 4cyl superchargers, except those were produced by Alpine Performance and LCE bought the rights after both TRD and Alpine gave up on it.

    What does the 14mm fit? The biggest one I can think of is the mounting bolt on the back of the front diff is a 12mm allen.

    Ah yeah, the plug for the rack guide is a big one isn't it. Luckily I've never had to mess with my steering rack, original everything with 150k on it.

    I just went through my tools I keep in the truck, got rid of most of the duplicate stuff and the sizes I know I won't ever need. I figure anything I can do to lighten this pig up is a bonus.

    Are you going to do the roof in one full piece and cut around the windshield or do you cut out two long strips for each side of the windshield?

    The A-pillars get laid in 2 thin strips and the roof will get laid on last, like a cap. Lines are cut with knifeless tape.
