    Opened the fill plug of my rear axle housing and using a flashlight watched the nice teeth rotate on my ring gear until I saw 3 teeth missing. Smiled like a Brit (messed up teeth)!!! At least I didn't waste anymore time trying to figure out the noise!!!

    Finished replacing all truck bulbs with LEDs (except backups)...looks terrific. All LED bulbs bought from E-Bay...CHEAP! Now with my HIDs, LEDs, and all white (clear) front lenses my Taco is SWEET! Also put in 2002 chrome sideview mirrors...looks cool (also from E-Bay). Next: new set of Yokohama Geolanders 275/60/17s...

    Got gas at shell... then about 2 min. later the CEL comes on. Didnt check the code, I just figured it was the gas cap. bc I tightened quite a bit, and it felt funny. So I got home lossened and then re-tightened the cap, only about 3-4 clicks. And cleared the CEL. (disconecting - battery cable)

    Drove it around and it didnt come on. hope it stays off!!

    Took her in to the Stealership for Recall. They shaved down my gas pedal. Then I bought New Sparkplugs, Oil plug Gasket, New Oil Filter, 5w-30 Truck&SUV Synthetic, and a new Cabin Filter.

    65ish dollars as opposed to $270 for my 60k service. Not a bad trade off.

    Pulled my HID lights out and went back to my stock bulbs for now. I have tried to get it where cars are happy with my lights then it seems with the way the scattered beams are on these lights I end up pissing of truck drivers. So back to stock for now.
    Will be selling these HID's for a good price. They are the 4200k Bixenon from slimcubby.

    Also just painted the few rust spots on the frame with Rustoleum textured black paint where I rubbed on some offroad trails.
    Then cleaned the interior with Armor All cleaning wipes.
