    I don't think it'd be worth it ... now that I've done the removal/reinstall once, next time won't be so difficult. I prefer maintaining the integrity of the plate.

    And then it drips off center and the skid plate gets a nice oil bath.. never goes well.
    So you have to take it off anyway

    IMG_7548[1].jpg From a pilot in the Denver area, so I'll pass on these greetings to all. I replied that I've some Deschutes Brewing products in the fridge. (My SIL there said that's the bigger brewing company, so they export a lot (at least to Idaho, and probably Washington, the state of. ) I don't want to think that I spent eight hours cleaning the school building Friday night into Saturday morning, but I did sleep well before working the 5 and 7 p.m. Christmas Eve services and the 9 a.m. Christmas service, which was streamed to the 'Tube, fortunately just over a half-hour long. followed by socializing over coffee and edibles brought in by some of the few participants and attenders, since there would be no doughnuts that Sunday. Very slick roads, so we're glad that people can watch the services via YouTube from home. It's a New Year's communion Sunday, since it's the first Sunday of the month and that won't happen for another 11 years!

    @MQQSE - I understand your pain, after looking at the right side of the truck yesterday to determine that I'll need to drop the front IFS skid plate (fortunately it's not steel but the 22lb. aluminum powder coated version) to replace the exhaust header, and clean and polish the air injection system before reinstalling it on the new header. (L.C. Engineering Street Exhaust Header kit with their replacement mounting studs). 10% more horses in the 2TR engine sounds like help over the Cascades and other mountain ranges for next year's travels.
    Tacoma Mike's correct. Cleaning public restrooms proves that you can't make a target, hatch, or toilet big enough to prevent missing.

    I use to pack the access with shop towels and then loosen the housing on the tundra until a thin little stream.
    Then I would rotate the tires. By the time I was done, I had a less volatile situation.
    We all “smart people” have our tricks.

    Morning land of the stock.
    44° right now. Wild ass weather. Going to rain and some wind this weekend.
    Then we dump again.
    Are we having fun yet?
    Coffee is done. I raise a cup to everyone here.
    Have a good day. If not, try again tomorrow..
