    Idk, it's a pretty big spot. It'd be to much of a pain. I'll probably do it whenever somebody lets me borrow their garage. I just need some sandpaper, primer, and paint. All I have is 300 grit and clear coat... Haha

    While replacing the stock exhaust with a aftermarket cat-back it was a good opportunity to put in a new gasket and replace the rusted nuts and bolts. Part #'s are posted on my build HERE.

    Old worn out gasket:

    Yep that 10" rim makes the 12.5s practically 13.5s.

    Monte you have a Scangauge right? Did you set your fuel tank size to 18.5 gal or 15 gal? I just did my 2nd calibrating fillup this morning and idk if it'll be accurate because I'm not sure what to put the fuel tank size at.

    I have an ultra Guage in my double cab. It asks for you tank size after the reset and startup.

    Or I can go to the menu and change it.

    I put it at 18.5. 6 Lugers have 18.5s while the smaller 5 lug tacomas had 15

    Your a 6 lug. So 18.5 for you

    :thumbsup:

    Lol as I said about 5 Lugers have 15.

    We have 18.5.

    When you hit E you have a "reserve" 3 gal left. Why most the time people fill up it's 14-15.5 gal cause they don't let it dive below E.

    I've done 17.2 or so once.
