    Everything but the driveshaft. B03A - 410
    They weigh 46.39 lbs which is less than the Cooper Evo MTs that I run on the LC that weigh 54lbs. If I move to SCS F5s at 18.6 lbs it will come in at 64.99 =46.39+18.6. It has bronze TRD wheels that weigh almost 30 lbs each. So total wheel weight is 76.38. So I could drop ~10 lbs per wheel by going with SCS. I'm not in love with these wheels, but they are ok for now.

    Question, wat do if you accidentally get your generator wet and they start multiplying at an alarming rate? Is it chill as long as you don’t feed them after midnight?

    Yeah we get quite a bit of rain but not much snow, though I like driving to areas in winter up north that do so it doesn't hurt to have something rated, I just don't need heavy ATs right now. I also saw some good reviews of the BFG Trail Terrain lighter duty tires comparable to something like Wilpeak AT Trail. It's nice that there are more options now. (My old Coopers on the Tacoma are getting super loud so they'll need to be swapped at some point too)
    I only got the GX a week or so ago. Not planning on doing anything big to it, just needs some small stuff for convenience and a good fluid-filming. I may build a cargo deck with some tire-down track laid in it for the back, but not even in a rush on that.
    I need a sun visor and dash mat more than anything, I got black interior and it's toasty haha.

    to not have to do all the engineer drawings myself lol.

    or my favorite from the last big job i had was the structural pipe support drawings that said “max 10lb per liner foot” i was like cool, my pipe weights 20lb a foot and the valves i gotta put in out like 200lb and a foot long. So you want me to put pipe supports every 6”?
    When industry standards for that pipe size is 10’CL for pipe supports

    Some are more unsettling than others but you should be good.

    The solution i offered them was to use the welded hss outdoor pipe support indoors because its the same pipe. They go nah thats over kill. Just do double strut with 2 clamps instead of the single strut with 1 clamp like on the detail.

    Unrelated to that, but what have you stockpiled for your truck and what do you have left to find?

    Still missing Driveshaft and gas tank?
