    They W but support the weight without RTT on there. Youve never seen the super bumps? They are really common. [​IMG]

    I mean I'm well aware of them just never looked into them much or really took notice and as much as I want to crawl under and poke and prod at other people's rigs at meets to gain insight and understanding on stuff like the super bumps first hand I also want to respect people's personal space and property. :anonymous:

    Good deal. I'm looking to replace the OEM system instead of chasing the ghost that keeps it from working.

    Since I'm here, here's the deal: wrecked my '11 Pre-Runner (Crew cab, 4 cyl, 2WD) and found the 6 cyl, 4WD Access Cab with about the same number of miles at a very reasonable price.

    Without taking into account the alignment scheduled for tomorrow, here's what I've done so far. Nothing major....


    Changed cabin filter. I know, it didn't really need it. [​IMG]

    Covered the rather nasty, torn steering wheel.IMG_0352.jpg

    Installed a bug shield and front plate. [​IMG]

    And vent visors [​IMG]
    And currently trying to fab locking covers for the bed storage boxes. [​IMG]

    Lots of plans for the little things that came from the Cheap Mods threads (you might want to invest in LED light manufacturers & Plasti-Dip now before I get started!).

    I don't intend to go rock crawling with it but it will not be a Pavement Princess either.... we'll see how this thing turns out.

    Got caught in an unexpected shower and admired the beading from my recent waxing.

    PXL_20210512_203607785.jpg PXL_20210512_203634484.jpg

    Cleaned up and maintained my uniballs and heims.





    PXL_20210512_233209219.jpg PXL_20210512_233223047.jpg

    Did a quick and dirty mini detail, why is the cup holder area always so filthy!?


    Not really to be seen but cleaned up my rear cam cables a bit, still need to pull the dash and hard wire it.
