    Installed my cup holder (last piece for the center console), third brake lamp assy with new screw grommets (the old ones were a bitch to remove).
    Ordered a couple small parts for the interior and that panel, still on backorder, they said it's at the depot so maybe Friday or Saturday.

    Just ordered this. The Rhino Rack on my roof (very rugged) only has a 32" spread and my canoe was shifting & bouncing too much while driving off-road with straps on each bar as well as on bow & stern. Need something just as rugged with larger spread to keep things more stable. Hoping I can adjust this rack to be able to use the front bar on roof for a 3 point attachment. Downside is I'll have to remove my tonneau cover. Figure I'll put that back on during the winter months and use the rack during spring, summer & fall.

    Thanks man! It took forever to find a good one that was affordable, but I snuck this one off the market.

    Not a fancy mod but looks good. No I didn’t put the new shift knob in cause they are still $95 on eBay. If I could find cheaper I’ll do but this looks good for now.

    Not much today to damn hot. Got out early and gave the Taco a good bath. Because of the weather and all the rain been ducking into drive through car wash. Today did it the right way, found I need to clean the underside and pull the wheels and get the rest of the plastic dip and residue off them. They were black Plasticdip when I got the truck a year ago. One started the peal so used WD40 but didn’t do a good job. Bead lock were chrome but did them in Matte Black with a little metallizer, discovered one was pealing so will redo it when I clean the wheels andon underside. Hopefully it will cool off a little next week. Granddaughter has Softball Tournament this weekend so it will be next week 100+ out side. now Reading instruction on installing Matt Gecko under hood and Bed LED’s

    This should help with wheeling 35’s hard and keeping a decent alignment.

    Matt or flat will be hard to keep clean, but its your choice. I went with what I liked.

    Took my bedside TRD sport stickers off and plasti dipped my emblems. Used the graphite metalizer to give it different look, it almost matches my MGM paint.
