    I want to do the BHLM but... it's so scary! Did you have an extra set of lights as back ups or just go for it hoping for the best?

    Your welcome! Looks like you can have a new spring cut to size at ACE Hardware. Take a snapshot of the post that's on the last page, and that should get you a new spring.

    Subtle difference in a lift, but it's only a 1.5 inch. Ride is much firmer and controlled. Next: Off to the alignment shop!

    Did the overhead console fix today and soldered the resistors back on the board. My overhead console works again! This is what makes this site great, it helps us all stay away from the blood sucking dealership! I love it! Thank you Tacomaworld!! :goingcrazy: :oldglory:

    Have y'all used or had problems with the Bluetooth? I just used it for the first time for a phone call and tried out my gps on my phone and both were so low volume I could barely hear it over the road noise. I can't find any way to turn it up besides turning the volume all the way up and that only gets me to a normal volume level for voice.

    I called Crutchfield and they couldn't help me. :annoyed:
    Told me to pair another phone to see if it does the same which I haven't had a chance to try yet.

    Have you tried making sure the volume on your phone is turned all the way up? You can control the volume from you're phones volume rocker too

    I found where it has a control for each function. All were set at 0 and tried tuning the Bluetooth up to max at 6 but when I hit initialize it jumps back to 0.

    I did set all the sources to the same so I wouldn't have to adjust the sound settings for each source. May have to undo that and go from there. I've been so busy tonight haven't had time to fool with it aside from calling Crutchfield. But I'll play with it tomorrow. Just wanted to post on here to see if anyone else had the same issue.

    That just turned the music louder. I was streaming while the call came in and while using the gps.
