    Did the new springs get rid of the kazoo sound?

    Does any of your rational for modding the diff breather have any relation to the diff howl? Or are they two separate issues in your opinion?

    Did you have diff noise that was more than the average Tacoma? I can hear in all TRD's (that I've driven) that the diff sound is more than the average car/truck. That in itself is not a big deal-- it just sounds "tight" and is what I'd expect with our gearing and it isn't excessive.

    But I can actually make mine "chirp" at 28 and 58mph with throttle pressure, which makes me think it's more than the typical Tacoma. And I'd expect to see more complaints if it were common. Is that how yours is?

    I might have to try your Amsoil solution.

    Holy crap. Your #5. My truck did that last week backing down a steep driveway and then putting it in D. I immediately thought "that's not what my last 5 Tacoma's did!" I figured it was just a quirk of the new truck. Is this something that needs to be addressed?

    Usually a couple days to play around with. It typically doesn't stay on the ground long.

    Every 3-4 years we will get a late winter ice storm that shuts everything down locally. As a rule, we don't know how to drive in it and folks tend to freak out. I for one, suck at walking on frozen ground....slip hazard and such.

    Reminds me that I need to invest in a generator.

    Prepping for 315s. Still more welding and grinding to make it look like it wasn't even done. But not to bad so far.

    Found a Craigslist sale for these brand new meso turn signals. 75 cash. What a difference these make in the looks of the truck 3647D263-5FE5-4600-B551-002C1179EE40.jpg

    I would say I had the typical rear diff howl at 50-60mph. I did not observe any "chirp".

    Dealer installed TRD intake and exhaust, window tint and Predator tubes.
    It was the IGN#2 - 7.5amp fuse.

    Sucks, I was able to find it the second time it blew at least. It's weird because the system with all the cameras works fine when I run 12v from an external source. If I plug in power from ANYWHERE in the truck, it blows the fuse. Going to reach out to the pigtail supplier and see if there are any suggestions.

    Over the weekend I finished my door speaker upgrades (Kickers, also used the sound deadener in the inside of doors). I cant believe how tiny these stock speakers are! Overall love the new speakers, brings the stereo to a new level.
