    Sub'd for a cool build.

    Happy Birthday buddy! May you live to me 100 and still shooting all the guns that are resting on the tailgate :thumbsup:

    Started the process of dechroming yesterday. It didn't come out perfect, but it's good enough for a temporary fix. Might do the badges today.

    Love the MT wheels. I've got to find something similar...but I want to keep stock size.

    Probably both tire and wheel sizes. I'm no truck engineer...I figure they put millions of dollars in choosing the stock equipment.
    If I chance anything, I would up size the tires. I like the 16" rim.

    These wheels are only 4.5" backspacing so they aren't far from stock. Just gives it a little bit better stance IMO!

    You could probably get a 285 under your truck with a little lift without having to CMC (something I heard toyota fixed on the 3rd gens).

    Does goo gone work better than WD40? Some of that goop is hard to get off and WD40 ain't cutting it.

    Not sure what took me so long to do it. I like the door badges but would rather have decals. Might get some of those turd gen tailgate letters to go across the bottom.

    Finally got around to doing the doors last night about 9PM. Debadged the doors, washed all the goo gone off, then put a good coat of wax where the badges were and added my new decals from @Hard Luck GraphiX. Cool guy to talk to and it turns out we live right down the street from each other so I was able to go and hang out when I picked up my decals!
