    Ok... So I finally got my ass to work.

    I've moved on from Coffee to Mt Dew.




    Timing is going to be crucial on this...

    I only have about 8 Dews on top of the cooler before I get to the 24 pack of Coors Light.

    It swings out to the right. The right side has bolts holding it in and then the left side i used trailer hitch pins for quick way of opening it.

    they look awesome. I just put a bronze set on my access cab. I’m loving the wheel but I’m still on the fence on my tire selection.

    Where did you source the "TACOMA" lettering on your tailgate? I assume that is nothing OEM.?

    Coupla quick and dirty hi lift mounts. Maybe 20mins invested, solves an issue.

    Got the new clutch in and the transmission back up. It got dark so tomorrow I'll finish the drive shafts and take her for a spin! I'm so tired of laying in the dirt wrenching, I need a driveway.
