    Oh gotcha, haha. I got excited because I thought it was going to be held at a different date this year and I'd be able to make it. Damn..

    I installed my air intake tube. Only engine mod and no noticeable increase of intake noise. I like the fact it is all smooth airflow from the filter to the throttle body.

    I added the TRD air intake snorkel which improves air flow just a bit more.

    Blew out a stock shock last time 4 wheeling. Decided to go the 5160/6112 route. Also swapped the flat runner/ nerf for something a little beefier. But, mostly needed something with a bit of a drop down so my wife could climb in easier lol

    Did I? I thought I "liked" the comment. I always use oem parts and have for 85k miles over the last 9 years. I'm aware several have run that power stop kit and the oem pads could use additional bite at times. You can use whatever parts you want.:hattip:

    Just curious if you had opinions on the advantages of OEM over PowerStop, the same way people bite the bullet for OEM transfer case oil. Your response helped ... both will serve well. :cheers::drunk:

    I do owe you lunch for all of your assistance ... or at least a hot dog up at Scottsdale during a car show.

    Not mine, borrowed the idea from reddit. Plug is utilizing a bottle opener and an existing bolt to mount it. In the works though.

    Isn’t that technically the piece that you use to trace your hole?

    Reddit post said it was a bottle opener. I don't recall what kind of template they're including with the kit these days. I thought it was paper.

    VIOFO A119 v3

    I used the Viofo harness that plugs in at your fuse panel under the dash, and ran the wires up tucked behind the weather strip and then along the windshield partially under the headliner.

    https://www.viofo.com/products/a119-v3-with-gps-2k-25601600p-30fps-quad-hd-car-dash-cam

    The fuse panel harness allows parking mode. The rear view mirror did not in my truck because I do not have the home link wires(?) I did not have power after tuned off anyways.
