    So I took my bedliner out and found the seal was ripped and so was rusting.

    I wire-wheeled the sh*t outta it, then calked the groove.

    Then took spray-in bedliner and sprayed over it. Then as you can see from the other pix, there were other wear spots so I sprayed over them as well.

    bunch of miles, scars and dirt..
    Yesterday I replaced the front rotors & pads. And the job was super easy!
    It really helped that I watched the youtube video for front brakes.

    The hardest part was to break free the lug nuts previously wrenched by a gorilla.. probably that contributed to the fact that rotors were warped...

    I think it took me like 2.5 hours.. (hey I'm not charging anyone)


    so far, very easy to work on the taco...
