    Yeah, while it was a lot of work it's not really noticeable unless you are looking at two trucks next to each other. Just makes you brain think something is different without being able to figure it out.

    Removed the "Front Wheel Opening Extension Pad" on each side, whose only purpose appeared to be rubbing my K02s while turning in reverse.

    Minus 1HP per side, oh well.

    Sorted out my on board water setup.

    I got tired of the water hose constantly being in the way. Not being able to shut the tailgate and hatch at night without putting the hose on the bed was annoying.

    i need to do the same, i swear every morning there is a random spot where they decide to remind me they are on my tacoma. blink for like 4 miles and then stop. I'm probably due, wish I still had access to a tire machine and the programming tools, heck i think subaru might use the same... wonder if i can ninja into my old shop and pop my beads and get them swapped over

    I have been using ROADFAR sensors in my 2008 for 3 years with no problems. $50 for a set of 4 on Amazon. $20 for an extra single for my spare. Walmart tire centers will scan them in for free for walk-ins with no other service.

    is the propane tank part of the water set-up, for hot water or something like that? Or is the tank just next to the water for storage?

    I do have a tankless hot water heater though.

    Picked up a 70.00 eBay grill and surround but only used the mesh to work with the OEM chrome. Removed the Raptor lights. Don't want to mess with painting the chrome at this point. The eBay black surround made the front looked unfinished

    Welded up the slot in the tailgate hinge so now removing it takes five minutes and the proper tools instead of thirty seconds and a snort of crank.

    Deleted by rear console. I used a 1/8” sheet of abs plastic with Velcro strips to fill the void. It needed up being the perfect size. Black is what I had laying around but I’ll look into getting a color that matches better.

    New battery. O'Reilly 27R with 2 year warranty. I replace it every three years. This time was about 3.5 years.
