A few days late on this but I debadged and put in a DeeZee bed mat then bolted it down.

I also learned the fun way that those screws they use to hold on the rear license plate are kinda weak. My license plate was stolen just before New Years. So I went over it all and bolted it down after I got my replacement plates.

Next up is replacement of the OEM mud flaps. I'm worried about them breaking off...

 

finally got my windows tinted with 20% and led tag lights

 

Yeah right.

 

DITTO.

 

run while you still can

 

This, and service done at a FORD garage. After two Toyota dealers screwing me on the last two "Toyota (doesn't) Care" services, I took it to where my buddy works and had EVERYTHING on the 15k list ACTUALLY done with Toyota fluids.

Btw, I tow a lot, and my buddy said he would skip the next diff fluid change until 45000miles. He said it came out looking the same as the new that went in, and for the price of the fluid.... Skip it.
My $.02

 

Kinda reminds me of my pickup

 

10,000 service done before I head out to the desert for a week run through Calico, Barstow, and Ocotillo Wells.

Dealership open til 9:00 pm so had it done after work.. Funny thing, asked both the service adviser and salesman (truck), about the week rear springs issue, they "Never heard of it" and said to call back in the morning, the parts guy may know something.

 

Twinsies

 

Light job over the weekend

 

Installed maxtrac spindles, new tie rod end and new factory brake lines because they all were seizd in the hoses, factory also cross threaded the crap out of my tie rod end, I highly suggest having these replacement parts lined up before install so your truck isn't on jack stands for 2 days. Spindles are amazing tho.

 

Envious! Great job

 

Started the bumper last night, finished up the grill this morning. Bumper still has a few things it needs done but close enough for now Too cold to paint it right so it is just primered to help protect it from the ice for the winter. Will be colormatched eventually.

 

nice man i likes ^

 

X2!! very nice.

 

Just the maxtracs up front and no lift in the rear?

 

Looks sweet Brady! Now just that rear bumper lol

 

I have 2" blocks in back leftover from my spacer lift ill be replacing with some leaf packs soon
