    Yes, it’s the 1.25” base riser for the front seat rail mounting point.

    It's in the bed....so not any different than on the ground, back deck, or a porch. In fact it felt more stable than it did on the bumpy ground when I was painting lower ares.

    Tore down the dash in an attempt to cut my TPMS wire. I saw the red box and tried to unplug the fuses in it for about 30 minutes but no luck.

    But I did put on some new Bosch wipers.

    Also, i dont know if you already have this stuff on the truck or have this in mind, but with that set up you could hold a lot of weight. Sliders, skids, bumpers, winch, and all your gear. Save those leafs

    The bumper is done with "Color my Hippo" tintable bedliner. I had done the rear bumper and grill surround on the other Tacoma I had. The key I found is to spray the dip with the glossifier, several coats. The white dip would still get grungy looking so I would use Mother's cleaner wax and it clean and brighten it right back up. It is a pita cleaning all the wax out of the dip but if you spray it with a detail spray what is lef of the wax residue wipes right out. It leaves it nice and fresh looking and stays that way for quitee a while. A little elbow grease but not bad. The only thing I did not like the glossifier on was black. It gets water spots and you can not get those off.

    Unfortunately today i am about 5 hours away from my taco, lightweight goin through some separation anxiety...:annoyed:
    But a couple days ago i got an alignment from the new shop i started working at and let me tell y'all its finally done right. I will never go back to wheel works again. As long as these guys are at this shop, this is where im goin for the stuff i cant do in the driveway aside from welding. Im in san jose at this shop
    3002 Silver Creek Rd, San Jose, CA 95121
    If anyone lives in san jose and wants to come through my name is Sam just let us know you're a friend. Speak to John if you can.
