    Joined in on the party and redipped + mounted the faux trd grille, love how it turned out and looks...tempted to dip the lower valence now. Also picked up these new, never mounted @Mobtown Offroad sliders from a local guy and had no idea how beefy these things were! Excited to prep, paint, and mount this wknd.

    Not today, but since I've owned it(July last year), removed chrome side steps and (no pics). Installed front struts and springs from a 2017 TRD OR from @Mtn_man_mike thanks again:hattip:(leveled it out perfectly). Hard to tell in my poor pics tho. Just this weekend installed a softtopper from @tmangini2, thank you to you as well:hattip:

    From the @CaliRaisedLed group buy that wrapped up not too long ago. They're still priced under OEM and quality is solid; just have to get 4 "better" screws for the letters since the supplied ones from the china manufacturer run a little short.

    image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg Got my trailer pin connector relocated with an @bullaculla relocater. Easy install in my driveway. 3* shims and extended brake lines installed at Smith Offroad in Addison, TX. Had a slight vibe at 40mph and again at around 65mph. I had shims on my old AAL setup, and when I went to my Allpro Expo pack I didn't reinstall the shims, I should have. After the shim install today, my truck is back to normal, drives as smooth as butter now....again. If anyone local to Dallas is looking for a good shop to do great work at great prices, hit them up. Good dudes, they have done a couple different installs of parts for me and they are always quick to get your rig in the shop and the prices are very reasonable, in my opinion. I know Tandem is awesome too, but they are just a little far for me, so I wanted to share my experience I had with Smith Offroad. Aaron and his guys are very knowledgeable and experienced with all sorts of applications. I'll continue to take my work there. Next job I will have them do is a regear. Now I'm all set for FJ Summitt XII in Ouray in July, can't wait!

    You should check out the elevated dog beds (aka cots) for dogs. We have one for ours that we bring camping, and it's great! Don't need to worry about it getting dirty or anything as it's meant for the outdoors. You can kinda see it in this pic.
