    Finished it today. Sounds great but still waiting on the taco-tunes sub. Went for a drive on the Natchez Trace Parkway.

    I think my next "mod" is to upgrade the brakes. Seems like I have to shove my foot through the floorboard to stop. *off to search for brake upgrades*

    Done anything with the rear brakes lately? When I swapped my stock axle over to a TRD e-locker axle, I moved the auto adjusters all the way in and forgot to adjust them back out after everything, and I had a similar experience. Acted like there was air in the lines, despite the fact that I bled them about 8 times... Once I realized what I forgot and adjusted them back out, the brakes felt GREAT again.

    Mounted my AUX fuse panel, HAM radio & USB power port behind the rear seat. Getting ready to install the dual battery and will run 12v power back to the panel to power everything that's added in the cab.

    Top view behind the seat, plenty of room for more electrical gadgets.

    Installed my newest skid, raised the front suspension a little to match the new leaf springs, and added in my new bumpstops to match their rear counter parts!

    ... all in the damn rain...
