    Anyone by chance have a pair of these stainless brackets. For squadrons? I bought a set of them but were on c5 brackets.

    Bill,

    You'll be good so long as you plan your route through the mods and don't do it twice. I always planned on staying mid-travel, but with the new JD fab kits, I'm looking at LT. Other than that, Ive been very happy to do suspension, wheels and tires, then bumper. Lots have been mixed in at various starges along the journey. The bumper was down after a milf frontend disagreements the freeway. The one real piece of advice I'll give is to get clickers the suspension if you don't plan to take the time to valve the truck. The cost of convenience is worth it. Also, don't worry about others, not that you do. It took my months to decide on my front bumper. Looking back, I wouldn't change anything. Well except maybe to LT. But the JD kit wasn't available when I started. Have fun and enjoy it. Best enjoyed with friends and food.

    My neighbors tundra got clipped today because the old person driving couldn’t be bothered to wipe the condensation off of their windshield and they couldn’t see where they were going. Can’t even make this shit up.

    Yall are carrying spare axles and brake lines and junk but has anyone considered carrying a spare 4.0?

    Not sure what to do with this thing. Rebuild with some good LCE stuff and slap some boost on it?

    I'm struggling right now to get my elderly parents to give up the keys (that isn't them in the pic). They really need to be in an assisted living home but mom is stubborn and dad is two steps ahead of Biden with dementia so he doesn't have a say in the matter. I realize others may be in a similar situation, so when I see elderly people in traffic that are struggling to drive safely (like a drunk driver but at 9:15 AM, failure to maintain lane, failure to control speed, erratic driving, late braking, stopping into the intersection), I usually call it in to 911 as a welfare check under the community service and outreach aspect of policing. I figure it may be the wake up call they need (that my mom needs) and might make life better for the family because now they have an incident to talk to their parents about.

    My neighbor is in the same boat, his wife is still very capable but he knows hes a hazard.. Bonus he gave me his 97' F250 for Christmas!! They also have a 2009 Taco i keep maintained just to keep them "safe". Sad to see the dealership take advantage of them in there old state. They claim they looked everything over but when i took the air filter out they had two mice nests in the elbow, cabin filter was even worst...:facepalm:So when I do my oil changes and small maintenance items I get to do it twice.
    Time to pick up another fumoto valve!

    Stuff that costs more than my wife thinks.
    I also call in when I see things like this - whether it's an elderly person that needs to put the keys down, or someone that needs to learn to put the bottle down if they're going to hang on to the keys rather than call an uber. Sometimes that wake up call is the kind of kick to the ass that is appropriate when other people's lives are at risk.

    We're running into this with the in-laws, unfortunately, who we have to assist with walking around the house as they don't have the best feeling in their legs, but they proceed to drive to and from the Valley from Prescott. :facepalm: I let my wife know that it's time someone works to get the keys away from them, or we're going to be having a very, very sad holiday in the coming years.

    Three groups I call in when I see them driving in an unsafe manner:
    1. DUI
    2. Elderly
    3. Out of state plates that are talking on their phone like it is a slice of pizza and committing two or more traffic violations. Welcome to Arizona Muther Kufer!
