    you should try pulling the spacers and moving up a few notches on your 6112s. i think you would like it better.

    Man ya gotta jump fast on the MESO stuff, lol months ago signed up for the email notification for a Stealth Pro shift knob, (even though he does not have a M/t version) got an email notification at about 21:30 yesterday, figured I'd better order one as they may go quick... when I got the shipping notification just now I looked at the website and they were already sold out.

    This was a part I was hoping to get to use as part of the camera controls.... Instead of the ECT button it will turn on the camera on the Radio screen and the second button will switch between views....
    $190 USF though... But at least with MESO stuff you can't tell the difference between his stuff and OEM.

    @vonclicas I have had great luck with Canadian Tire batteries..... Just my two cents here! I think you need to bring your old one in to get the core charge back?

    This battery is still super strong and I installed it in January 2013. I purchased one with more cold cranking amp‘s than was required for my truck just to have a stronger battery.

    The pro-rated warranty is good in case you get a lemon.

    I have thought about, might do it.
    I installed a set of SPCs this week and finally corrected my camber where it now sits at 0. The Total Chaos UCAs were too short and I was going through tires every 5 months. Also gained more caster where I might be in a good position for 35s on my next set of tires.

    So, I end up searching on Google maps for a battery store close to me.
    Found a blue and a yellow optima on sale, so I canceled the Canadian tire order. We will see wich one fits.

    As long as it’s a agm (glass mat or gell battery) you are laughing. The lead acid ones can be a bit of a pain and aren’t as good. Regardless getting it from Canadien tire is the way to go. Their warranty is epic.

    Optima isn’t good as it used to be, beware. Costs more than alternatives too.

    ummm .....ya.
    I had a 05 Silverado stolen...my baby... got an 07 as a replacement and pulled the fuel relay whenever the time was right. Thats an easy one but so much easier with a hidden kill switch.
    Anyone suggest an easy switch for the Tacomas? Ignition/Fuel pump or is there an easy one I am missing?

    ummm .....ya.
    The best theft deterrent for sure!!
    I was home alone that night when she went missing...usually there are two cars parked in front of it. I think I was followed...she stood out in a crowd for sure. Cammed, headers, tuned, lifted she was a monster performance wise. The pricks that stole it used it for week around town to do other smash and grabs and B&E's. The cops chased it on occasion and couldn't catch it. Sister in law was one of the cops involved...and I quote.."man that thing moves" Found it on the rez...go figure20150502_132317.jpg

    That's a group 27 battery, not 27F. Group 27 and 27F have opposite polarities... Careful you don't blow the ECM.

    This should fit: https://agmautobattery.com/shop/8037-127-d27f/

    Or non-AGM from CT at half the cost: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/motomaster-group-size-27f-battery-710-cca-0102700p.html

    Normally I recommend Everstart Gold from Walmart, but they don't offer a 27F.

    Believe there is a fuse for the ignition under the lock panel.
