    Where can I get these? Mainly for my power steering reservoir... I try and keep under the hood looking good and clean up under there every oil change, but the silver P/S reservoir on the 4cyl gets stained and tarnished.. I would like to grab one of these HKS socks to hide it just as long as there are no determental effects.

    Thanks for clearing that up.. I guess it serves a purpose, but in this case it's just mainly for looks. I had to know what it was and what purpose it served. Thanks again.

    Mounted ARB 2m awning using their universal brackets w/ gusset and the UpTop tracnuts.

    by the way.. anyone know torque specs for both the tracnuts to roof rack & for the awning to bracket? I went 20 in-lbs for tracnuts and 50 in-lbs for awning to brackets. Can’t seem to find any torque recs online but this feels plenty solid without over torquing

    No, I think if I removed the fender box it might get a bit louder, maybe. I’m running just a dry afe drop in. Nothing is open. You CAN hear the air moving through the head to the lce header, but it’s not open filter throaty. Watch it rix.

    Google reservoir socks, there are tons to choose from. You can probably order Toyota wrist bands if you want to keep it brand loyal. They list the HKS ones as socks.. they don’t fit perfect. I don’t want my power steering canister getting pitted from salt so at least half of it is covered..

    Just posting what I've read homie. That one never made much sense to me either, but seems to be reasoning for lots of these riders you talk to.

    Either way, they still look kinda cool.

    Yeah I cut the bolts down after the picture. And already retorqued after a day of driving since everything got settled in. I’ll check them again in 500 miles.

    So far I’m impressed with them. But I was coming from Fox 2.0s that weren’t tuned and didn’t like the weight I have.

    Yeah.
    I figured you cut them down. You'd probably know pretty quickly if you didn't, lol.

    I have Deaver Stage 2 springs and ended up having to add a 3 degree shim to eliminate vibes. Pretty sure I got them from Headstrong. Easy to slide in without completely disassembling things. Depending on your lift height, you may benefit from something similar if you get vibes. Mine were mostly noticeable when slowing to a stop.

    Search up Yanky McStrappy. Tom makes them to be used as interior door handles in Subaru (and any other) race cars with stripped interiors. He is rad. Buy his stuff. :thumbsup:
