    What about the modern electric ones, do they have an ignition kill with those? I know sometimes the tacoma would flash a warning for hitting the gas when the brakes are applied (two footing it in the woods).

    Jesus, I wouldn't let them do "testing" like this on any of my vehicles. Applying gas pedal while keeping car in e-brake? Might as well find other ways to beat on the vehicle.

    Yes sir, Matt and I got hybrid front bumpers with chop kits. Ordered together because we got a deal on shipping and the parts.

    I'll let you know as soon as this one is ready for a new home.

    These are pics from the warehouse guy... I'm trying to get in in the next few days to open, check parts and get some paint on them.

    With yesterday and today being kinda nice outside, took advantage and changed my xfer case and diff oils. After 82k, the front diff and xfer case oil still looked almost new. The rear diff oil was dark but still semi-transparent.

    Replaced the rusty allen bolt plugs in the front diff with the Lexus plugs.

    Just "be careful" not to drain those instead of your oil pan. I've read more than a dozen stories of people dropping their ATF instead of their oil... Part of why they have different fasteners.

    But if you're mechanically inclined enough to do this, I think you're safe :thumbsup: - I'll probably do similar when I do my front shenanigans.

    How do you guys with gmrs have it installed on your truck? I’m thinking to mount by the wireless charger


    Other than that got molle panels to put in the bed over Black Friday to adjust my setup

    A lot of people these days can't even top off the fluids where they're supposed to go despite the caps being clearly labeled.

    There was a guy on TW who accidently drained some tranny fluid instead of oil, then tried to put it back, but put it in the coolant instead.

    I guess it depends what type of GRMS you have in mind to install. I just picked up the Midland MXT275 and I will be mounting it on the Molle Panels on the passenger side of my console. Plus you can always get a Baofeng UV-5G as well just for handheld stuff
