    Right there with you Cap on the whole getting old thing.

    I recommend 3M tape for just about everything that needs nailing down. Next to duct tape and paracord it can be one of the most useful items to have in your "what if" arsenal.
    I've never used 3M for your particular application but I'm sure someone out there has. Just be sure to use EXTERIOR 3M if you go that route and make sure you clean both surfaces well. I like to follow any cleaning with denatured alcohol as the final step before applying. Hope this helps you out Cap.
    Oh and be careful and make sure it's 3M brand and not the cheap Chinese knock off. The Chinese stuff is junk and guaranteed to fail.
    3M tape is like hot sauce, "I put that shit on everything!" :D

    They are DD 3k leds.
    Pretty impressed with the bulbs themselves, real metal and heavy. I lit them up in the garage but still too bright out, I would totally recommend for just a bulb replacement

    I went to the local Lowe's looking for some tape to stick my old dashcam to the rear window. I wanted either Gorilla tape or the 3m stuff. They had neither. What they did have and what I settled for was Scotch Extremely Strong Mounting tape. It's for indoor and outdoor use. Haven't gotten around to trying it yet. Here's hoping it works.

    That's a horrible idea. What time?
    I went with matte black raised. I may get the TRD on the rear quarterpanel customized and put US Marines in there. Also thinking of a matte black stripe on the tailgate with MARINES cut out. But I like the idea. Looks good.

    I hope it works out for you. Tried the Chinese junk that came on some mirror visors that I bought and quickly replaced with 3M when they almost fell off. When I find something that works I tend to stay with it. I've settled for less than what I was looking for in the past and it almost never works out. I hope you do better.

    Copy that. I've got a few things in my cart on a few sites so I'll do some searching and get this added as well. I ordered a roof rack and will need to pull those roof pieces but want to add as much of it back after install so I may need some stickum to do so. Appreciate the info. :hattip: BTW how's the wife feeling? Hopefully much improved at this point.

    She's doing very well Bud thank you for asking and for your thoughts and prayers.
    Just waiting for the gas bubble that they placed over the hole to dissipate before we know the final result. She can see the bubble so that's encouraging. So far so good! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

    Looks good but educate me. With the truck being level, how does adding new tires and wheels make the rear sit an inch higher than the front? What am I missing?
