    Well I finally adjusted my BPV and i think it actually made a difference. Who would have suspected about 3/8 inch adjustment up would make a difference in braking? Hopeful it only gets better when I get the the brake system flushed and new wheelers off road SS extended brake lines installed at Triple C Chop Shop Friday the 2nd, before the big HF meet.
    In other news I just realized despite what Toyota says about my VIN... I DO have an LSD!!! :yay::woot:

    1. Got some new stickers and picked up a 285 spare. Hell it's no 295, but it's closer than the 265 that came with the truck!

    So the tundra limiteds came with this sweet 6 disk CD changer with a tape deck. It's legit AF. I can finally jam my college bro's ska band demo tape. It's great :laugh:
    I think Chad might've heard some of it on the trails at hidden falls
