    Cut your own out off a set of RekGen, you’d probably end up with like a 100 set’s

    OOOOOOHHHHH!

    White Walls!!!!!!!!

    I remember a toothbrush and Ajax maintaining those on Mom's 1978 Black/with Red Pin-stripes Cutlass Supreme Brougham.

    Similar to this one with those style wheels and those pesky white walls.

    I like the white letters on your truck...but the thought of a toothbrush & Ajax is a sort of PTSD for me! lol

    Just did an alignment, best I could get it on my own with a 3" spacer lift is +2.5° caster and just under +1° of camber on each side. Just about 1/8" toe in. I think I forsee some ucas in my future because my OEM alignment adjustments are maxed.. lol much better than it was though!

    For $20 could have done these with the Plasticolor ones. That's what I wound up doing about 5 years ago.

    This has been discussed before, thought I had recorded it ...

    I am coming to the conclusion the first owner of my truck smoked like a chimney and it is in the air vents. What is a good product to flush the air vents of the crap?

    You need an ozone machine. They're cheap on Amazon. Follow that up with some ozium air spray.

    Yeah these were like $40 a set. Beefy as heck. Some structural questions were raised when I saw the rear holes for the set screws but, they are burly steel so I doubt they will go anywhere playing in the dirt or in an accident. I ordered all TI hardware to lighten the mess up a bit. Coming from Recaro buckets to Tacoma seats was off putting to say the least. Then my back started getting wonky on long trips. Raising the legs was EVERYTHING.

    Seawater. A steep boat ramp. Compliant witnesses.

    The smell doesn’t come just from the vents, it comes from -everything- plastic in the truck.

    Just let’r roll gently into the water. It’s really the only way. :rolleyes:
