    I have 700's in my truck and it rides great with no added weight in the front.

    700s on my Icons as well. My truck kept sagging and sagging with the 650s and the hybrid bumper put it over the edge. I think Toytec did some testing when the 3rd gens first came out and determind the OEM rate was something like 712 inch lbs on 3rd gens. I don't know the testing methods but believe I read that somewhere:notsure:

    Also just found another build to follow:thumbsup:

    This is a big one folks... So as I'm waiting for parts and other things to arrive that I have on order, I installed my new "Supporting Public Safety" AZ plates.

    Yeah man, it's amazing how much brighter these things are! You could actually read a map if that were still a thing!

    Haha, that's funny. I actually didn't do the mirror lights in the visor for that very reason.

    Oh man! I was scheduled for gears today but then I got the dreaded message from @SDHQ OFFROAD around noon on Saturday... They had to push me out a few days to the middle of the week or so. So close!!

    In the meantime, I did some sticky foil (Dynamat Xtreme) on the back wall of the cab yesterday. Surprisingly, it does make the cab a little more quiet and the bass from the sub seems to hit a little harder. I'm actually kind of confused with the 3rd gen JBL system. My 2012 Tacoma with JBL sounded way better! Has anyone else experienced this or is there some kind of issue with mine? @JerryTaco's 2017 JBL sounds 10 times better than my 2018 at much lower volume levels.
