    Finally got my TRD supercharger installed, also picked up some Goodyear Wrangler silent armor tires with a revtec spacer lift, may not be the best lift but it looks good so suck it. P.S. Supercharger best addition ever, just have to paint intercooler and rims black now, might as well get the headlights while i'm at it. :bananadance:

    I decided to do some of the cheap free mods today.

    The first one was the anytime locker mod. I tested it out about fifteen times and it worked great with no issues. Here is the link to the one I used.[​IMG]

    The second one was the constant on power mod. It was pretty simple to do and is working great [​IMG]

    yesterday i took my tacoma into the dealership for the 5k maintenance...also had them check out the rear suspension for "harsh" ride.... few hours later, they called me back and said if i want to get the TSB done, they'll order the parts... they also mentioned that if i do this TSB, the ride is not going to be as smooth as it is right now... it will be a bit stiffer and bumpier.... i figured, that's fine because im trading smoothness for stiffness while under load. needless to say, my appointment is in 2weekends from now and they'll program my key and remote for free!

    I tested the tailgate last night and it held up pretty good. Taped off the floor of the bed today and sprayed the shit out of it.

    No pics yet but it looks pretty good to me so far. If it starts to chip then i will just get a bed mat. It wasn't to bad of a job, got plenty of sun and had several beers!!!!!!


    Next, painting the fog lights yellow with Krylon Stained Glass "orange" paint. Anybody have new pics of this??? (yes, i already searched")
