    I'm not sure how much junk is in the way on other vehicles and we tried bending the fender well with a set of channel locks but it wouldn't fully move out of the way enough (although I do have dainty wrists for a man haha) and the passenger side was even worse if I remember correct.

    My buddy did TC ucas on his 17 pro. He cut the factory bolts and replaced. He probably removed the battery too. I do recall him mentioning they where a pain, but he didn't have to destroy the fender well in the process.

    I've done both. 3rd is harder, but still doesn't require cutting. 45 minutes per side with the correct massaging tools and 2 sets of hands.

    It really depends on how your cab was aligned to the frame. When I did it on my 3rd gen, 1 side was a piece of cake. Barely had to bend the metal to get the bolt out. The other side we had to cut the fender and bend it to get that damn bolt out. If I could do it again, I would have bought 2 new bolts and just cut out off the old ones.

    Some people have no issues taking them out, some people like me, had a hell of a time on one side.

    Does It Get Any Better?


    Cognizant of our limited daylight, we pulled out of the mine

    Just what we wanted.

    One of my buddies works at Tesla in Seattle..I guess a guy just traded a 2018 SR5 V6 in with 56 miles on the odometer.

    Dude must have driven it from Toyota to his house and then to Tesla.

    Anyone happen to know of a good place to get steel braided brake lines on the eastside (Bothell or surrounding areas), or is my best bet to order them online?

    90% of the time it’s cheaper to order online... unless some places price match (?) then you can have the best of both worlds by having a good price AND not having to wait for it
