    Little high up, IMO.
    Your pooch could end up on the dash, or worse, in an emergency stop.

    Front End Alignment done today. It helped, since I took the sway bar off.
    Next on the list, a pair of kick-out sliders.

    New lights came in, feels good to finally get rid of the awful tinted junk that the previous owner put on this truck.

    Putting in some work. More pictures to come. Also definitely recommend ordering replacement main eye bolts if you plan to take your leaf springs off. I had to cut mine

    Thanks for the suggestion. I did get new bolts to have on hand, but the main eye bolt popped right out with one light hammer blow. Gotta love anti-seize!

    If you do it right you can get a pretty cool shadow tailgate going on, tailgate got the decal removed and then buffed up, can see just how much the paint sunfaded around the decal for 21 years

    When it was on my first truck and had just been cleaned up it was stunning, had the whole truck buffed and it was like a mirror... which was something to beholod after being used for wheeling for 3 years

    Lazy question of the day, my semi-apologies. I just figure someone has this info more handy than I do.

    I am in need of some lights for the Tacoma. Specifically, I need the
    • driver front marker, and
    • the passenger rear blinker
    What am I looking for? 2000 model year. Obviously I'll replace both sides of each, just because.

    That's still one of my favorite trips. So many fun things we did in those few days.

    Bulbs only; housings are great - I just noticed they were dark on my last trip.

    I have Toyota part numbers for each bulb, but of course, that's useless if I just want a replacement bulb... I need the numbers.

    Edit: front marker might be 168?

    Front markers are 168 correct

    Rear turn signals are 1156

    I just get regular halogens/incandescent, but I'm sure someone will vouch for a pair of LEDs that will fail in 6mo or so
