    Keep an eye on your core support. I have a creeping suspicion that proper wheeling or whoops or aggressive washboard, and/or a heavier battery, and a heavy aftermarket bumper combined with the stiffer poly bushings is the cause of the cracks in my core support


    This is quite a common issue with these trucks if you use it...

    Needed the larger one to the left of the steering column.
    I picked it up today. I'm moving/cleaning up my mess of switch placement and I'm also going to be making new wiring harnesses for the switches.
    It's amazing what ideas you come up with when you're in the shower.

    That top washer and the core support might create some squeaking because of metal on metal. Might want to remove the top washer in the future

    Begun the process of contemplating the Four Wheel Campers Project M or Super Pacific X1 campers. No need to order anytime soon... but starting to get the itch for one of these wedge/camper shell combos.

    Home-built roof rack for spotting platform and/or kayaks & bikes & stuff. Home built bed drawers Firestone Ride-Rite airbags on the rear for level camp trailer towing
    Nice work. MDF soaks up resin like a sponge - I've built a few things with it and brushed on epoxy resin and then, when it's cured, sand it down before painting. Makes a nice tough long lasting part.

    What resin do you use? I primered it fairly heavily with shellac primer before painting which I've done once or twice before. Unfortunately this time I'm not getting a very even finish.

    They gave me one. After two days of no communication on tracking or response to my emails, I opened a claim with PayPal. Possibly that got their attention. I was going out of town and had specifically ordered from them due to “ship same day or next”. I was not happy with radio silence until I put the claim in.

    Also the shipping box had a “Tuff Country” logo on it. The Tuff Country website does not appear to offer Bilsteins for the Tacoma however. Maybe same ownership as suspension Connection.

    Got the 35’s on this morning. These Patagonia’s are so much quieter than I thought they’d be.

    Oh yeah I’m sure they will get louder. It was actually between these and the geolanders for me. Those are awesome looking tires as well.
