Just gave her a bath I’ll be ceramic coating this bad bitch in the next week or two.

Truck bed mat came in too.

 

Do elaborate.

 

I had @kmorgan3 make me up a PnP T harness so that I could tap into the security circuit that flashes the LED in the dash(see pic)for my shift knob illumination project, the dash illumination circuit(for glove box LED) and the accessory circuit for add on switches(ABC switch) under the environment controls.

Did you want details on what LED and wire harness I used for the glove box illumination?

 

Order

Bilstein 5100 for all 4 corners

AVS window deflectors
Amazon special 1/4 spacer for the bills.
Prinsu Cab rack.

Now the waiting game until it all shows up.

 

Why are Rotopax mounts such - piece of crap?

the lock mounts are designed to fail. Mine is rusted through and seized. Now I can get it off. Anyone with a clue how to destroy this POS?

 

Hit a trash can on the freeway. Not even really close to any homes. That bastard must have blown a good ways.

Secure your cans people.

Many years ago I was driving home on the freeway in a 2002 Camaro SS lowered with hotchkis suspension. There was dead coyote in the road and I couldn't go around it due to traffic, so I slowed down as best as I could, tried to avoid it, but ran it over. Car was fine, but my dog went out in the garage later that night to sniff the car and pee'd on the tire.

Lately I've seen empty 5 gallon buckets on the freeways and roads. I don't drive as fast as I used to, but sometimes stuff's unavoidable.

 

No Chit. Damage?

 

None that I have seen so far. I thought I would have had a cracked plastic "bumper" area but no.

It was not the big ones with the hinged lid and wheels. Was a maybe 30-40gallon round one of brittle plastic. Mostly just shattered.

 

Worst is when some idiot loses a 5 gallon bucket of paint (always seems to be white paint) that splatters on the road. Then you run it over and the tire spray gets it on the body & frame.

 

Was finally able to swap my OEM TRD Off Road wheels for new 2020 Tacoma TRD Pro wheels today. Had to wait quite a while for the caps to arrive as they seem to be in short supply. Turned out great and I love how they look with cement.

 

Day two of my Tacoma, on the epic drive home, 952 miles, there was a yeti in the road True story. The truck that lost it was pulled over about a mile up the road

 

Good 2 hear no damage to taco.

 

These rip away bags are the best. It’s the only I could find that does that surprisingly. I have 2 in the bed (red for med black for randoms)

 

I’m still trying to catch up- but that was a productive time out you had… I’ll have mine up when I’m thread current but don’t think I did as much as you.

I was wondering how come some ppl were saying the opener only works with truck on but I know mine can anytime. Since I park outside this might be something I need- to look into

 

I’ll keep reading for the update video because I was thinking of getting that element for in can because of size

 

I know there was a question of whether or not the power wire actually had power in the later models. If the wire had power it would work whether on or off. I specifically used the harness that used the switched power so that mine was off when the vehicle was off. Didn't check to see if the the power wire actually had power or not.

 

Tested it on 25 May. Posted the results later that week. I was not impressed at how it performed. Will not buy another one.
