    I'm pretty those are "valves" in a really loose sense. They are really just a piece of plastic, a spring, and a thin metal cap--but there isn't really any real valving or sealing or anything of the sort. Just FYI. TBH I replaced mine too tho. :thumbsup:

    More out of the ordinary work for the Tacoma yesterday. I'm done moving busted and rotten wood and just have 3 or 4 more loads of weeds to haul out and 1 more load of rock to move. I'm cleaning up my little lot of land in prep for a new house.

    [​IMG] Got the new Diode Dynamics Ssc2 installed and I need to run the wires still.

    super low profile as ditch lights.
    These are the @CaliRaisedLed ditch brackets which have been outdoors for two Northeast winters and still have zero corrosion.

    looking to get some night pics later on.

    Installed the ford ranger center bearing (carrier) replacement. This is as straight as I could get the two piece driveline without drilling out the bracket hole. Its dropped quite a bit from stock. I may play around with different heights. Does it matter how close to level the front section is? I have no idea how long the rear section should be at rest. This truck hasn’t seen stock height in years.

    That is exactly what I want for my 2012 Pyrite Mica. Looks very similar to what I had in my 2016 Sport. The mesh looks better than the oem to me.

    Nice work as usual, that's why I'm on the list.

    I love my black truck, but sometimes in the summer I see another color while there's sweat in my eyes and I think maybe I should do a color change lol
