Gave her a bath

 

you can probably buy new foam if you want to and haven’t already. Hopefully it comes in the cube pattern like what’s in the pelican knockoffs (Apache) at harbor freight where you pick it apart by hand to the hole pattern you want

wow that looks great. I hope it’s compatible with installing a backup camera

edit: nvm box claims it is

 

What jack stand is that? Looks like a lot of clearance. Link if you have one.

 

Esco. Yeah I’ve had some higher lift jackstand before I even had a set from Harbor freight but they got recalled and I would never buy them again my buddy turned me on to these when he had BMWs the really good quality.

We have a set of these too, they're really nice and worth the money. And with that Rubber puck you can put it right under the frame just like you would on a real 2 post lift.

 

Sweet Kennedy boxes

 

I had a Gibson on my 3rd gen. Loved that tone. The next time I need exhaust I will buy Gibson again.

 

Let's talk about your TRD Pro-esq grille, it looks amazing! Custom build or is that a @HomerTaco creation?

 

Installed HP Tune using Overland Tailor Tuning with custom supercharged calibration. Took it for a quick drive around town and on the freeway and it is significantly better. No more searching for gears or shifting into overdrive way too early.

 

Well it’s been a little bit since I posted in here but… this week I

had a shop fix another shops mistakes..
Had my winch installed
Changed my oil…

 

How's the 040 Super White Paint holding up so far on your truck? My 2020 been flawless. As we all know, some folk are having issues on the 2nd & 3rd gens.

 

I’ve had a low range diff skid that I test fitted a while ago and it fit horribly. I don’t believe that it was for my rear end. Today I decided to get the grinder out and do some cutting to make it work.





I also stole @EatSleepTacos idea of tacking a small drain plug skid on. I grinded the edges down as much as I felt comfortable doing in hopes for it to be a smooth transition over rocks. I’ve had too many close calls and now I am much more comfortable with what I have going on back there.




I have had the hammer hangers for a while now and have been very pleased with them. It was until today that they unleashed their true potential. I ended up purchasing the cross bar from @ARCHIVE instead of messing around and making my own. I didn’t think the ride could get any better after feeling it with the new leafs and the hangers but with the addition to the crossbar it’s night and day. Very pleased with the product overall.

 

How often do you need a gun while driving?

 

7 years old, nearly 100k miles and she still looks new. I wash it every couple of weeks or so. I commute 50 miles a day....so she can get pretty dirty. Once a year in the fall I wax her. Sits out in the sun 10-12 hours a day at work.

Built in Mexico in '15

 

My motto is it’s better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.
I carry all the time.
