    You're not wrong but I definitely hope to avoid that fate!

    I was wondering what the next mechanic to have it up on a rack is going to think :rofl:

    My initial set up and some mods I did last weekend. Lost the drawer, so storage totes will do for now. The new layout gives me flexibility on sleeping and travel storage space.

    This is more of a question then anything. I have a 3rd gen crew cab TRD off-road. I haven’t done many mods to it yet as I’ve only owned it for about 6 months, however I have started to mod it, ive put a mbrp exhaust on the truck and I love it. The next mod I was looking at was either a leveling kit or a set of rims. The rims I want just came back on sale for a reasonable price and I was wondering if y’all had any input on whether I should hold off on the rims and get a leveling kit first or get the rims first? Thanks for the help.

    Do you have plans to get bigger tires after you get the leveling kit?

    Right now I have K02's that are 32's and I plan on keeping them for their life span due to my location and the weather I get here, after they reach the end of their lifespan I will be getting larger tires around 33-35's

    The only problem that I see with this video is that you make it look so incredibly easy, that someone like myself, might make a really dumb assumption that they could install those themselves and end up with disastrous results, along with a dismantled truck in their driveway for months lol great video. I’ve probably watched it a dozen times!

And the OEM power tailgate lock kit was $141 total to my front door from BAM. 509F7E32-7C35-4722-AD7F-7C988FE0856A.jpg 2AAE92E4-52F4-4460-ADEA-701FB5C947D7.jpg 08CEBE3E-9BF9-4DF3-9074-61CB64F76AFF.jpg D496829C-16D7-44FB-9AC9-17A1C495507A.jpg Like some others that have posted about installing the tailgate lock kit, once I removed the single wire loom connectors and replaced them with the double loom clips, (a complete PITA), the rest of the install is easy. Just a lot of running the wire loom and a lot of zip ties! But I love being able to use the key FOB and knowing it’s locked and my gear is safe.

    Lol. It took a lot of other videos on YouTube to guide me through the process, combined with instructions included with the parts. I had multiple tabs on Youtube open to make sure I was on the right track. After doing it, I would say it's a lot of work but not necessarily difficult. Thanks for watching man!

    Nothing worth taking pictures of yet but I did install factory Limited fog lights into my 17 Tacoma SR which was a pain. Toyota does not have a harness for them in the SR models so I combined a aftermarket kit and part of a fog light harness out of a wreaked Camry to get things working. Also installed a tonneau cover made by Tonno that clears my bed rails which had been a long search for.
    Will post it soon but I am also making a lot of changes to my base SR interior this month when I put the truck in storage next week. Just installed a chrome tailgate handle and surround as well. The chrome was to much so I had it tinted with red clearcoat to match my truck and it looks great with the handle being the only chrome part showing.
