    I've got this same looseness in the same place. Was there anywhere specific that pulled everything tight, or just a matter or going through all the fasteners?

    Up early today. Who am I kidding, I'm up early everyday, have to be at work at 6AM during the week.

    I'm looking over wiring diagrams for my navigation install and figuring out the differences between a stock 2012 radio and a 2015 navigation unit (mostly for the "S8" spiral cable connector).

    Out of curiosity, how did you cut the vinyl to cover the holes? Did you fill them first them lay the vinyl over it?

    How are you getting 3.5 degrees? I took mine in with the specs from my lift company I have their UCAs too and the specs say 2.7-3.7. They got it up to 2.7 I believe but said it’s maxed out and couldn’t go any farther without aftermarket bolts, I feel like they meant LCAs but I’m not sure so asking. Thanks!

    Too many to list.
    It seems like it wasn't pushed all the way in. I also found that side of the bumper below two small metal pieces so I pulled up the bumper and it now sits on the metal pieces in addition to being fastened.

    Relocates the breather for the rear diff to a higher point than on the pumpkin. Most people put it up into the gas fill area, some do it up to their bed box on the driver's side, fewer still put it up into their rear tail light. The front breather hose is about where your front intake is (assuming you don't reroute the front in take), so it's already high enough, per se.

    I got one of those knock off ARB ones and relocated mine up to the engine by right above the ones for transfer case and trans (I think)might end up changing locations but probably not, I wanted to put the other two into the fake ARB one because they give you 4 spots but I didn't have time yesterday. I may just pop the one way breather off the top of them and run them the rest of the way.

    Figured out my nav wiring. The 20-pin Scion adapter I was using has different terminals than the 28 and 24 pin connectors I want to use. I have the correct part numbers now :D
    I have to see how many terminals I'm going to need. The 20-pin adapter was just too bulky and it made putting the radio in place difficult.

    I relocated my rear diff breather just a little higher. Took about a 2' section of hose and zip tied it to the ABS wires. It's higher but not as high as the tail light or fuel cap are.

    YEah, I'm going to test this location out I feel like it should be good, if the water gets this high above my wheels I will be in deeper trouble than worrying about my rear diff haha, I also relocated my intake into the cowl so if the water comes up to the breather then it will most likely be in my cowl and I will most likely be in a lake :rofl::rofl:

    I don't expect to be crossing water deep enough to warrant mounting the breather any higher than I have it right now. I do however have a snorkel on order.

    Your laptop/iPad mount looks cool but I got to tell you this one is the best I have ever used. Very easy install and completely playable. Arkon Car or Truck Seat Rail or... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F3F09NU?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
