    Odd, the recovery hook will not fit with the air Dan. Are you sure is a hook and not a tie down ring, like blackrifle76 stated?

    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    I believe you may be talking about the loop. My sport has it and it looks a little beefy but it's really not. Can be used for towing on level ground or for a tow truck winch up the ramp but not strong enough for an actual recovery if your stuck. At least that's what I read somewhere.

    Never mind, adjusting the preload was fairly easy, driver side was cake, using 2 punch tools, passenger side resi got in the way, ended up using adjustable filter wrench to budge it just past the fitting enough to get the punch back in and kept going, cleared my 285/70/17s just fine now with 7 threads showing. Huge shoutout to JT@Bajakits for answering any and all my questions and providing excellent customer serviceIMG_1461.jpgIMG_1443.jpg IMG_1454.jpg

    Is that tire stickers? If so where did you get them?

    Ok, I hate sunroofs, they are just to bright for me.

    Decided to remove sunroof and used a 5% Window tint to tint. I can actually used the sun roof without all the glare from the sun.

    I know some off you will say just close the cover.

    So i will say ahead of time to try to save the comments.

    Captain obvisious says duuuuuhhhhh!

    I just close the inner headliner thing or drive away from the sun when it's excessively bright. Sunglasses help too.

    Sorry @gsesupport1 , sometimes I can't help myself :devil:

    Installed vinyl tailgate letter decals (hopefully I don't lose the HP gains I experienced after removing the B-pillar vinyl wrap)

    IMG_3852.jpg

    and I spray painted my TRD skidplate dark machinery grey (is darker and more bluish than it looks in this photo). Hoping it doesn't "bling" as much as it does in the stock Toyota light grey powdercoat:

    Not sure why you took the time to remove your seats from the truck. I put mine with without much trouble without taking them out.

    Drove over Beartooth pass today after coming out the top of Yellowstone. Ended up in Red Lodge Montana. Truck did 20170822_152812.jpg 20170822_165133.jpg well and got some unbelievable mileage going downhill the last 20 miles! Lol haven't seen anybody top this one yet. Actually the last 10 miles of going uphill I averaged 36 mpg somehow! I guess as long as you're going slow even uphill miles per gallon are very good.

    Did you have to cut the fenders, or just massage them into place?
