    Vehicle:
    2019 TRD 6spd; 1984 Hilux; 2002 Cummins
    Custom, only one ever designed and built interiors, heavily welded frame, all sharp metal turned bed rack and a roof top I made for $75. Power pedal, injen intake system, cat delete, summit racing brake proportioning valve controlled on the fly, slightly adjusted or perhaps unrecognizable ECM, built in under bed storage, high clearance rear built with 1/4" on a 6011 1/8" rod at 120 amps, 360 degrees of led light, a PA and CB, on board air, on board propane (to cook food), on board fridge made from an old red bull fridge found on some guys man cave built into the storage cubby under the back seat, imported tranny and clutch from a good friend over in Europe to replace this aisin junk we get, combined 32 gallons fuel capacity, 18 5 gallons of water storage, built in gun locker under RTT, and all it cost was to hear the wife ramble on about upset neighbors at 2 in the morning every night since I bought that damn truck..
    Been a while, waiting on parts and spending quality time with my cummins but I'm finally rebuilding the 2019. Bought a new ECM and a toughbook with TIS for re programing purposes. Built a slightly modified wiring harness for the modification and I'm hoping to have the beast going again by new year's. Codes and such shouldn't be any issue once I rewrite the factory programs out of the equation. Safety features, airbags and other nonessential features will no longer be in the vocabulary of the system and I'll be one step closer to the finished product.

    Installed the Tacoma Beast LED interior bulbs. Long overdue.

    Of course the Center Dome light was not the correct size. i feel like those always are an issue. I messaged them to see if they can send something else.

    When you're 70+ with arthritis and old sports injuries, the struts are welcomed. Walk a mile ....
    Your time will come.

    ok noted, but the problem that might happen if the shocks open but wont close or freeze up and bend some part of it, then you cant close your hood, and they are held on with one bolt and apiece of tape? c'mon......i remember all those gm cars of the 80's with them

    It’s nice to have these clips on hand just in case you lose one during the install: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CJLB1BP

    Will it? Arthritis can be managed with resistance training.

    Ask me how I know.

    I guess the update has a bad history with Canadian immigration and they won't let it come over the border.

    I read that too (even though I didn't install the MESO). It's a #3 Philips. Sure, a #2 will fit in the head but it is a #3 head (at least on my truck) and the wrong size screwdriver will just strip it.

    One other thing, I am more than able to lift the hood and use the prop rod. I empathize with your condition, but “Your time will come “ is purely evil and sadistic.

    So……:brianr: :crazy:
