    Looks great! Been thinking about TRD Pro Wheels or spacers to make room for bigger tires. What lift do you have and width spacers?

    I was under the impression that Atkinson cycle engines performed better with lower octane (to a point of course) due to the delayed flash point. For a standard Otto cycle engines higher octane is beneficial but unless I misread the documentation, there is no effect (or actually detrimental effect) on the engine installed in our trucks.

    Check my info page I've updated it! I thought about wheels but the lift and everything was enough of an expense. Plus the spidertrax spacers work so well didn't need them.

    Took some better pictures today. I don't think the front wheel spacers make the wheels stick out badly at all. I was worried and thought I might need rear spacers too but no way. This thing looks fantastic! Thank you to everyone here for all the research on this build.

    So you only put spacers on the front wheels? Is that normal? Or do people usually put them on all four for continuity?

    Question on wheel spacers (this probably isn't the appropriate place for questions like this but maybe ya'll can cut the new guy some slack): I'm wanting to go to a 265/75r16 mud tire, probably either a cooper or bfg, but am worried about potentially rubbing. Should this not be a concern on my 2017 TRDOR or if it is, would wheel spacers on the front eliminate the likelihood of rubbing?

    Rear Diff2.jpg Rear Diff1.jpg I took mine in for the 15K service on Saturday. I recently installed the Tyger Sliders. While under the truck, I decided to check the rear differential for leaks. I had previously had the rear diff re-torqued under the recall. I noticed some seepage / leaking. I showed the pics to the service advisor. They replaced the gasket and resealed the differential. Took them all of one day. Great service at Lakeland Toyota. Point is, you might want to keep an eye on your rear differential, even if you have had the recall work done. The wet spots in the pics were on the top. I would not have been able to see them if I had not used my phone' s camera as a mirror.

    Where did you get the mounting brakets for the liight bar to hook up to the prinsu?

    and the retrofit sorce makes an awesome wiring harness that fits in the window seal perfectly, but i dont know what the compatibilty to your bar would be like.

    The brackets are from CBI. they are SS and fit perfect for almost all light bars. The only negative is that the shipping cost for them was almost as much as the brackets themselves. Serves me right for not purchasing them when I ordered the rack. I will have to check out the retrofit source wiring harness but more than likely I will just modify the one I have to work but thanks for the suggestion.
