    Have you taken a look at your transfer case actuator? That's what the issue with mine was.

    Chrome delete! Did a grille swap with a base model Tacoma and had it painted 1G3 to match since painting over plastic chrome never lasts.

    Nothing like cruising down the beach. Installing the trail toys edge trim today to get rid of my makeshift trim I got off Amazon that I ended up having to glue on.

    I got the vertical mount from UltraGauge. The length of cable is perfect, it reaches the OBD port without any excess cable.
    Don't try to slide the plastic piece all the way in, you will break it as their instructions say. Wish I heeded that warning.

    I'd post the link to the part but when I go to ultra-gauge.com I keep getting redirected.
