    Got a question tho they were out of the RCA line output converter couldn’t I just splice into the front door speakers?

    Thanks I already bought the whole assembly but maybe now I’ll return it and just change the bearing. I’m still getting a noise so I think I might be changing and alternator in the near future... pulling 14 volts across the terminals right now with the ac and headlights on but we will see

    Here's a video on how to check the gap in your spark plugs. As for coloring and mileage they look fine.

    A few mods here and there and counting....
    Started friday evening and finished today.
    Fox 2.5 DSC Ext Travel with Eibach 14in 650lb springs
    Fox 2.5 DSC Ext Travel (Made for Tundras and modifications are needed)
    JBA HC UCA
    Icon RXT leaf pack on option 2
    Wheelers front superbumps
    Timbren rear bump stops

    NOTES:
    Fox 2.5 rears ext travel are made for Tundras. The shock hose fitting needs to be rotated 180 degrees after loosening the lock nut to correct the orientation. Same for the reservoir. The hose fitting needs to be rotated about 15-20 degrees to mount flush against the frame. The bottom shock mount bearing/bushing needs to be grind down a few mm to fit the Tacoma shock mount. The Fox logo on the reservoir will be upside down...peel, removed and new Fox stickers are on the way.

    Fox 2.5 front ext travel reservoir hose fitting needed to rotate ever so slightly by loosening the lock nut and rotated about 25 degrees or so as the hose is way too stiff to mount as it out of the box. Fox supplied brackets interfered with SOS Concepts bumper bracket so a bit of trimming to the said bracket is needed. Still very solid and helps greatly with clearance. I will keep an eye on out it.

    It rides amazing and i haven't dial in the settings yet. Overall very happy with the upgrade and new wheels will be on soon. Came from 5100s/884 and 3 leaf AAL. Didn’t take pics of rears as i was focusing getting it done before sunset. Will take some pics tomorrow.

    That’s a good video. Just make sure you don’t use the same technique with iridium plugs.
