    So these just change the seat angle a bit which help alleviate back pain or makes it more comfortable etc?

    This and that
    Dessert does it was and must still be my favorite “mod”. My calfs and thighs would ache no matter which way I adjusted that seat. I drive over a 1k to get the truck home and put the dessert does it in right away.

    In theory, yes. While some people cannot believe they waited others take them off within 5 minutes because the new seat position is intolerable.

    Muscles worn out from years of use, beat-up sciatica nerves, fluctuating levels of body mass (not shaming ... just stating objectively) ... all these and more make them saviors or torture devices.

    Nothing quite like a couple pieces of cake or stack of ice cream sandwiches to prop up the seat. :rofl::rimshot:

    I installed a NOCO charging cable connector today. I didn't the cojones to cut a hole into the quarter panel, so I too the plastic panel next to the grille. Had to dremel one plastic stiffener away, the took the 50mm drill/saw thing and made a hole just fitting the NOCO connector part. Put some wire protector around the cable and ran it under the grille to next to the battery where I connected it to the NOCO trickle charger I had installed last year. Works fine and does not look too bad.

    Does anyone else constantly have to put input into their steering wheel, over shitty asphalt roads?

    Also does the wind blow you around?

    Just curious, it's got great alignment when the road is nice and flat but as soon as there are any messed up patches or rough spots / pot holes in the road its no longer a easy steering experience. I was told this is pretty normal for most tacos. They tend to wander slightly.

    Truck has brand new Bilstein 5100's, brand new inner and outer tie rods, and a brand new rack and pinion. New ish tires at 32 psi 265/70/16, and my alignment caster is about 2°


    Thanks.

    After 1 year of waiting it was finally there: the Hudway HUD. Had the OBD II splitter installed last year already, so it was easy to install the HUD now. Have not driven it yet. But am excited for the first drive with it. Big downside is the OBD II dongle that drains battery because it is constantly on. At home no problem, I have it hooked onto the trickle charger. But going somewhere else I need to remember to disconnect the dongle.

    Indeed. In my situation I needed the rear of the seat to be in a higher position. I disliked the original position of the seat immensely.. my body type, height, weight, etc. Led me to feel like I was sunk into the seat way too much coming from a first gen... Can't remember now but I believe I jacked the rear up an inch or 3/4"
