    Be careful when you use the power washer on your rims IF your valve caps are off. That's how I ruined my TPMS units on my Tacoma.

    stuff and things
    @Brian422 and @Danieldee. The rear window is the rago fabrication 3rd Gen tacoma panel and the shelf is for the 5th Gen 4 runner. Both required minor modifications to fit my 2nd Gen. The over head is mesocustoms original MOLLE roof panel

    Had my trac and ABS lights come on about a month ago, figured it was a stretched wire from my lift. Took it to the stealership to pull codes and they found 4 codes. Open or short in both front end wires, bad ABS sensor driver side, and a steering column sensor that they thought was weird. Charged me 85$ to hook it to the scanner and read out codes.

    Decided I should just invest in a better obd scanner that pulls ABS instead of giving it to a stealership again so I ordered a scanner that does ABS, a new ABS driver side sensor, and 2 new front ABS wires. Replaced the ABS wires, broke 2 bolts I need to remove now, and pulled codes myself. it was still reading all 4 codes. Didnt realize I could clear codes so after reading the manual I cleared the codes drove it for 2 days ABS and TRAC never went away. Pulled codes again and only ABS and Steering codes this time. Finally got around to pulling the ABS sensor and what do ya know o-ring is split open and its all gunky. I must have accidentally sprayed PB blaster near the sensor and it ate the o-ring letting junk and moisture inside. Popped the new sensor in and cleared codes and the lights went away this time and the codes didn't come back.
    Now I just need to fix the blower motor wiring and resistor and she's back to a good state

    Used the splash guard thread to make a new set:

    And wrapped the B pillars in satin black. Not bad for never having vinyl wrapped before.

    Had my hood and that small leading edge of the front fenders painted this week. Picked it up today. Had a bunch of rock chips from an incident with a UTV. My comp insurance covered the repair ($100 deductible). I bought and had them install some new OEM headlights as mine suffered from the DTRL cracking/melting issue. They did a great job.
