    Waiting on the Total chaos bump stop kit but wheeled the axle under the leafs and reattached all the accessories. Took the bolts and brake line clamps off of the lexus because mine were all rotten.

    Sorry for the long reply, I actually had to double check. My Miller Multimatic 220 auto sets based on thickness of metal, wire and type of metal. You can fine tune it from there. This is what I ran for welding the .120" plates.

    @Dm93 can you look up the voltage requirements to make the oem rear view camera work on a 2012-2015 Tacoma? I don't have that info in my 05 tacoma fsm.

    Tire pressure monitor computers, secondary wireless key antenna, rear parking sensor speaker, smart door computer and rear left SRS sensor mounted (on factory bracket that I took off the Lexus). Everything clears the subwoofer box perfectly.

    I'd like to have the body wiring, front brake lines, gas tank and gas lines mounted by end of may. June to put the engine in and hook it up. It's coming along nicely.
