    In pool plumbing for every elbow in 1 1/2" pipe is equal to 10" of pipe due to cavitation, so less elbows makes the water flow well.....

    How can you make the truck sound louder without changing the whole exhaust out ? like giving it a little growl ?

    That would be great for deer. Do you have a lot of glare off your hood?

    I always wondered that about those overhead light bars. I can imagine glare on the windshield, but don't know.
    Also wonder if they do glare badly, if many will admit to it after spending so much on the lights & installation. Hopefully neither glare!

    I've got Rigid floods as ditch lights. I have them pointed out at a 45deg angle and still get glare on the hood. I can't imagine the glare on the hood from having them straight or having a light bar on the roof.

    Yeah, my ditch lights are in the mirror housing. I haven't noticed any glare, but will have to pay attention now just because...!

    Mine are Rigid Spots. Wish I had Floods for better coverage.

    @AwesomeLaw68 sensors have to be either cloned from the old ones or scanned and relearned through the OBD. Discount Tire can assist you with the process. I would recommend just getting your wheels and tires from us. @shaggy135 thank you for your business!

    @flakbait love the color of the truck. It's our favorite color combination.:thumbsup:

    No, not off topic, it's in response to the the posts immediately above talking about gas mileage. I guess if it's in direct question about a mod it would make sense, but that's about it.

    Nice! Post some pics when you are done! I am in the market for a bumper. What made you choose the C4? I like the SSO to keep the factory fogs.

    Mostly the lead times made me choose c4, I smashed my stock bumper on a rock so it was time to upgrade lol. I'll post pics when it's done getting powder coated!

    One Mod after another

    If your sensors fit your new wheels, just reuse them. If not you'll have to us Toyota Techstream software to install the new sensors. You'll have to find a free copy of Techstream.
    Search Techstream and see what you get. Be ready for a whole new learning experience. The OVTune threads and ECU threads will have stuff about Techstream in them. Have fun!
    You can also take your truck to your local Toyota dealer and have the TPMS programed for you. :spending:

    New here, just got a 2016 Sr access cab the other day and I found a factory XM radio out of a 2014. It worked great and was super easy to install. I need to add a XM antenna but for now it works fine.

    What did the Father bison say to his kid when he left in the morning to roam?

    Bye son!

    I’m sort of surprised he bent your metal bumper. What bumper is that?

    He just pushed the mounts up a bit, I loosened all the bolts and pushed it back down. But its the dissent "bumper wings" made of aluminum. So its not a full bumper, it just replaces the plastic bumper caps of the stock bumper.

    They look like this, its more for the style and to allow the recovery points than actual protection.
