    Here you go. Took a picture of the gap as well. Im going to work on this today to eliminate it. Also going to fix my headlights fogging up which started earlier this week before my grille install. So embarrassing to look at. I can’t stand it!! I even sealed them really well before install last year.

    Just finished the ECGS bushing install. Pretty straight forward except for the fact that there is no room to swing a hammer.
    I tried to remove the bump stop to gain access and the stud broke as soon as I started to turn it. I'll leave it alone until I install my lift and just put aftermarket bump stops in it.

    I also checked the voltage at the blower motor at different fan speeds. I could never hear the blower on low and wanted to see if it was in fact getting power, which it is.

    I finally removed and cleaned it / I pulled out more than 170 gr. ( about 6 oz.) of dust.
    Got rid of gas fill-up problems !
    proudly home solved issue without any help of internet or youtube (found nothing about the problem)
    Hope it'll be helpful for another 2014 Taco owner.

    Just installed diff drop. 20181208_111933.jpg
    Wasnt really impressed with the difference that it made on the CV axles and didn't feel like it made that much of a change in angle.

    Before20181208_105632.jpg
    After20181208_111526.jpg
    Decided to remove and go without rather than cutting into the skid plate with the angle grinder for barely any change.
