    Man that sucks...
    Do you know if they just tried one wheel on one hub and it was too tight so they didn't proceed?
    Or did they try all 4 wheels on each individual hub to hopefully narrow down the issue?

    Tried 2 wheels on the driver side. Both were so tight they struggled to get them off. I just don’t understand the issue. Wouldn’t lugs pull them being a little to tight is bad? I’m gonna try another place before I give up and try to sell these wheels or trade them maybe. I’ve seen dozens and dozens of trucks with these wheels on here.

    Does that stick out less than the stock plastic? I have been toying with getting something similar.

    Check the drain hose. It can be pushed back into where the condensation collects causing the condensation level to build up until it reaches the top of the drain hose before it starts to drain out. Just give the drain hose a gentle tug to see if it slips out a little. I found this out when I did the A/C drain mod.

    This is the way my 2020 works as well. Very annoying as I prefer to run the AC without recirc on unless I need MAX cooling. I just got to figure out why it is leaking inside after running a while. I think the area that holds the condensate inside gets full and can't drain quick enough.

    I would have the new shop try mounting
    I would have the new shop try mounting them on all four corners. It could be possible the issue is just your drivers side hub.

    I wasn’t 100% sure, but yes it sticks out less, besides the shackle mounts, which are probably about as far out as the stock plastic lip.

    If someone’s buys it it’s worth something. Just list it on the bts forum ask for whatever you feel is good and be willing to flex.

    My want to confer with others about that switch. I don't know how much it has to do with the leak, but it seems to me it should function as I described, and that turning on your AC at any temp below the max setting should not trun on recirc.

    Same thing happened to a friend of mine. And her truck is outside the warranty period. eBAY for the win on the new part, because Toyota apparently wants some outrageous money to fix the problem. A few people have done some interesting shrinking by heating/cooling the pad.
    Either that, or I think I've read that some people are removing that charger and putting something more useful in the space.

    This is more like a 'What did you do to your Taco last Tues-Friday at 7PM after work & gym'
    Started putting these small parts on as they arrived in mail from July 4th orders :)

    I went over my budget with the new Taco, but i told my girl these mods were 'essential' and had to be done :)
    (TW is a bad influence :D )

    Organizer & Black emblems - Must stay clean!
    TRD Pro Grille - OEM looked like Diamond fence/Japanese BBQ Grill and i couldn't get the image out of my head!
    Dashcam Adapter - only $30 like come on it's tidy and clean (no issues so far with Viofo A119)
    Smoked Tail lights- OEM tail (chrome etc) were hurting my eyes !
    Tyger Tonneau Cover and Pop & Lock - essentials
    Diode Fogs - ok only this one was unnecessary
    Aftermarket Key - my friend asked if I got a Prius.. had to be switched!

    Still on the way- Cat Security and LED's (SL1 headlight, interior lights, reverse lights, license plate lights)

    2023 Black Friday (after recovering financially from this new Taco + small mods) wish list: overland build

    I have and others have posted theirs works as mine does. Maybe it is the difference between single and dual climate controls? Mine is single.

    But, either way, nothing I should do with the controls should make it leak like that.
