    Haven't posted in a while and just caught up on 50 pages in this thread.. hahaha

    -Did the reverse level mod with the boat, actually didn't squat as much as i thought it would. got 16.5 mpg's while pulling it too.

    Also put 1500 miles on the Taco over the last week. Started in Indy and went to the UP and back. The avoid highway switch on google maps is a great thing. Yes the wife's driving, using the A piller Ram mount for her phone and all... Really need to get my lift going so i can dump these stock Dulers, just rolled over 47k miles.

    yup, 55k miles... :( .... pretty disappointed, my previous '05 trd OR AC went 89k miles on original set of brake pads and were just shy of the wear indicator when I replaced them.... never had to replace rear shoes and I got rid of it @ 160k miles.... was blown away when I started hearing the wear indicator rubbing on the rotors at 55k on my current '15 TRD Sport DCLB....

    He doesn't have it preloaded at all, maybe no lift?

    BP fab cooling panel. Like the little magnetic tray, very handy spot to put your nuts, bolts, sockets, bits., etc. I don’t know about you guys, but my damn engine loves a snack every now and then. Luckily they fall down into my skid plate.0A8AEB8A-C7DC-415C-B805-CB64B2B75171.jpg

    Unless the product has been redesigned make sure you check to see if there are any rubbing issues with the panel. I had some chaffing marks where the panel scratched through to bare metal over time. I ended up trimming the panel in a few key places and touching it up with black paint. I love the look of the panel and still happy I purchased it.

    Great job and I love the color. Make sure you check to see if any of the lights are getting too hot. I have similar sets and one burned out quickly from heat. I think mine were made for small 12 volt, low amp systems, and my truck puts out too many amps. The lights work great, but without a heaksink they burn up. The ones with metal bezels get the hottest.

    Very rare that they get hot, they only come on and off when the doors open. The ones in the footwell are about if not more than a year old and so far no issues. I’ll keep an eye out though, thanks man!
