    Seat risers you say? Please give me all the deets (install instruction, how far does it raise the seat and how quickly can I get a set?)! I need those in my life!

    They look like Saddleman Seat covers. May be a different brand, but I have seat covers like those and that's what they are .They have different style of seat configurations depending on what year your truck is. But the best thing is once you order them theylthcallt you to make sure you ordered the right set up. I've had mine for 4months and I love them .

    He sells them in the classified section of TW. I installed them, made a nice improvement to my driving comfort IMHO. I was skeptical but went for it after reading all the praise on TW, glad I did!

    Bought @inesshell's old all-pro. Evacuated a few pounds of sand and gravel, cleaned everything up and bound some lingering surface rust. Mounting was simple with a couple floor jacks. Waiting on gathering suspension parts before adding the swing arm- it's a beast.

    I think I burned one of the reverse led boards in testing, so need to get a replacement and a couple stud LEDs to hit the plate.

    Also removed the TRD exhaust tip and dramatically increased power to weight ratio. :muscleflexing:

    Hydrodipped some interior pieces. Turned out great for my first time. Looks good with the tacomabeast skins.IMG_20181017_184809_626.jpg IMG_20181017_185734_962.jpg 20181017_134047.jpg

    I have no idea honestly. Just did it today. From what I read it depends on how many clear coats you use. I put 5 heavy coats on because I might do it different. But it seems to be withstanding it well. Online it said to use 7 coats of clear on high used areas. That was the minimum. Better to use more than 7 though. Looks better than it was looking. Was scratched bad and stuff.

    Replaced my bashed up OEM skids with RCI 1/4" Aluminum skids. Much heavier duty protection, better clearance with tighter fit to the chassis, cooling slots, and only 5.5lbs heavier than stock while offering a substantial increase in protection. Overall very happy with the product design and fitment.

    Congrats! If you come across any questions feel free to pm me, I just did my bumper a few weeks ago and it hasn’t fallen off yet.

    Little bit of stuff.
    Finally getting around to replacing my clutch. Master and slave cylinders, and having the 2nd 3rd and 4th gear synchro sets replaced. Prop shaft is being balanced. Tires are being balanced. Finally installed my extended front brake lines that I've put off for like a year and a half. Once all that is done I'm gonna order up some Bilstein 6112's and 5160's to replace the blown factory shocks and saggy springs. (Which I've also put off for a year and a half.)

    Technically yesterday, but it was raining too much to stand and take a picture. A nail in the sidewall accelerated the timeline for new tires.

    5 zerks like @Naumoff42 said. And i do not believe you can damage the MAF by just cleaning it. I mean unless you go crazy and clean it all the time. I just did mine at 51k along with my throttle body and plan to do both every 25k going forward. It took less than an hour with my 2.5 year old daughter helping. I could have knocked the whole project out in 10 min if it was my job. I haven't gotten gas yet, so i am interested to see if i gain some MPG's. I've told myself that i have noticed a little better throttle response, but who knows really. Good Luck!

    1 year oil change done today. About 7,500 miles on this interval. Sample heading out to blackstone. Amsoil SS 5w-30 with their 15,000 filter. Replaced with schaeffer supreme 9000 and a Toyota filter. Planning on running this one 6 months and see what the lab work says before stretching it any further than that.
