    Mounted the remote start module using the bracket I made. It’s a prototype. It uses the nut from the e-brake. @TacoTuesday603 is going to make me one out of aluminum.

    Is that floppy? ABS is likely to sag in the temps that the cab will get up to in the summer

    It shakes quite a bit. I’ll lay under the dash later and see what I can do. Aluminum will be stronger.

    You can also see the small cut I had to make in the tab because of the metal e-brake bracket.

    I dont see it but just include everything you need in your drawing to me. Everything will be well within 0.050" and 1.5 degree on the part I make

    edit 0.5 degree not 1.5

    Good morning. Day off for me. Going to Toyota to order a couple things.

    Happy birthday @MikefromCT

    Finally fixed the GMC that I was looking at for a friend. The accelerator pedal was bad, there was a broken wire going to the pedal and the connector for the throttle body needed to be replaced. How can so many issues happen in one system?
