    Id like to see this test done with the tacoma though. I've never had to make moves like that while driving. Howerver; I do know that it's only gonna take one time...
    To each his own. I'm not a very aggressive driver and I'm pretty alert to the vehicles around me. I feel confident that I can avoid a reckless driver before they get close enough to put me in danger. I'd like to think that way anyway lol

    I feel the same way man. I just err on the side of safety is all. As someone else on here once said, removing my sway bar takes my truck from a DD that I trail ride, to a trail rig that I DD. Anywho, I would also like to see the test done with a Tacoma!

    Thanks! Just snugged the strap up good and tight. Probably pulled it in close to a 1/4". The passenger side was out of plumb. The tailgate latches smoother, and my cover rear latches are snug now. Here's the link.

    I think the new ones are a little smaller. But I'm not sure what aspect we are talkin.
    That is a great question. I did not replace any bulbs on the inside of my truck yet.

    I think it was discussed a page or two back.

    Dang it man. I would probably get on the list for the next batch and get the ones you want.

    The quality of his work is 2nd to none. I'm thinking about getting a third one to put on a necklace lmao

    Seems to me they're pricey enough to justify the necklace.
