    That looks great! For my taste a flat black would be where it’s at…but I think it looks great! My Tacoma decal is a flat black so I think it would blend in well…now I have something else to do! Do you have a link?

    I originally intended to purchase in flat black so it would match the flares, however, I decided to go with gloss as I thought it looked more premium. The mirror caps were directly from my local Toyota dealership and the handles are from TrimIllusion, they snap on and have adhesive.

    Cleaned up the wiring to the fuse block, added under the hood lighting (I’ll get a pic at night), and ran the wiring for the flush mount bumper leds.

    If you're planning on adding accessories just do it. It'll keep things much tidier and it's not hard at all. I sourced all the parts for it on Amazon. I should have done this on my 2nd Gen Taco and my 5th Gen 4R.

    minor, TRD skid plate, front recovery points, Regken mud flaps, rear diff breather, AC drain pipe extended. Upgraded sound with active sub woofer, tonneau cover, CB radio.
    Have a door striker on drivers side of my access cab replaced, old one was so rusty.
    Interesting, one on passenger side has no rust at all.IMG_2085.jpg IMG_2087.jpg

    I changed the plugs at 180k (ish). I changed these last time… and I don’t remember running into this, but the passenger side nearest the firewall didn’t want to come out. All others super easy.

    I got a light and could see a washer/something around the plug, so I used a rubber mallet to hammer the spark plug socket onto the spark plug (otherwise it wouldn’t grab, just spin not go deep enough… so to speak).

    i didn’t add this shrink wrap/tape…. Any idea why it’s there? Maybe I skipped this one last time since it was so difficult, not sure and too many Busch lights to recall. Regardless, has a new plug in it now. Pic is weird one with tape/heat shrink on left, other old plug middle, new plug right.

    Thanks!
    Matt

    Installed an “always on” ECT wiring harness. Simple 2 minute job and no splicing into any wires.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Looks like a coil seal to me. Look at your coil.

    @scouterjan can confirm, but I think those are 265/75R16. The size you mentioned (255/75/16) would be very unusual.

    Love the Lone Peak! Installed 3 of them last month. Amazing campers! Awesome to see one out wheeling. The mounting brackets are a work of art.
