    I got the rear awning first and I got the deal of a lifetime on my 2 6' awning. When I mount them I want them all to be at the same height.
    I won't get into the mileage battle, everyone would laugh at me.

    Last night I posted the first vid in a new playlist I'm trying out called "Tools You Need," focusing on tools that come in handy when working on your truck. Check it out and let me know what you think.

    Ahhh the breaker bar, you know you're in it deep when you have to slide a metal shovel handle over that to get a full 5ft of leverage...

    First time changing the rear diff oil, previous owner had obviously gone far past the tourqe specs on the fill port. Covered it in PB Blaster everyday for a week, heated it up, banged on it... still nothing. So i leveraged into the breaker bar head (towards the bolt head) with a 2x4 to keep the socket firmly on the bolt head, while my buddy used the shovel extension to slowly turn it. Worked like a charm.

    Very cool! Ya, if the screens aren't cracked there are just a few parts usually related to video or audio. Nice job.

    I can't live without my rusty old breaker bar. I have to admit I've done some horrible things to it

    Just some constructive feedback for you, so take it with a grain of salt. First off, I do enjoy your videos especially being Tacoma specific. But you can be extremely repetitive in some of them. You tend to say "Like I said" quite often. Don't worry about repeating, it's a video and we can use the rewind button :thumbsup:. Get to the point man!!

    With that said, I will now be going on Amazon to by that breaker bar. I need one to check all my bolts and nuts after doing my lift at a buddies house.

    Keep up the good work!

    Thanks for the feedback and for watching. Always appreciated. I do realize that I repeat that phrase wayyyy to often. In the description for one of my earlier vids I even posted something to the effect of "take a sip of your alcoholic beverage every time I say "like I said" or "ok guys." :D
