    No issues with any of the above that I am aware of. Just bought new filters for the lift pump. Thanks for the heads up on those things though. Will keep an eye on them. It’s got a few electrical quirks I need to sort of. Sometimes the lights come on with the key regardless of the switch position. Sometimes they abide by the switch. Gauge cluster lights like to flicker while the engine is running. AC works but the fan is intermittent.

    Thank brother. I love those 4th gen trucks. Sucks to have to spend that much on the transmission but once you do it’ll hold the power for sure.

    That's a sexy suspension setup right there.

    For real. Personally would love to see that chrome toned down a tiny bit with a light shade of smoke. I dunno

    It's a sweet ride ​

    I’m not wild on the way the torsion bar drop brackets look but I can appreciate the engineering of the kit as a whole. I want to pretty much go through the whole suspension and refresh everything.

    Yea I’m not a fan of chrome. Both my Tacoma had all the chrome removed or painted over. I just have not had time to touch anything on this truck being a full time student. It’s still 100% the way I received it but I am anxious to have the time, and money, to make the changes I want to on it.
