    Well I figure while I'm doing lift, sliders, skids, OBA, and tail gate, I'd start in the interior while it's cold.

    @Subway4X4 sad day on this end also. So despite making all the efforts to get back in the road with my truck this weekend, truck karma didn't want me to. I bought the ball joint, only 1, since the other one was perfectly fine. After taking everything out, I noticed the bolts for the nuts got were sheared a lil bit. Went to advance auto to buy more and realized something was fucky with my calipers. There is no clip for the caliper guide pins and thanks to jersey and the winters the pins were stuck to the caliper. Long story short. I need new calipers as well :(

    I attempted to cut the pins and bought me new ones, but had no luck taking them out.

    That in my hand is the remains of my ball joint cotter pin.. fml

    Just go straight for the tundra brake upgrade if you need calipers anyway. I think everything together is like $200 or so, and is there something wrong with the studs or am I seeing things

    Cut some steel down to size planning the bumper, I wanna go 2" up then 16" over on each side on an angle. Not sure how well you can see the sharpie there but I wanna get some opinions before I cut a $40 chunk of steel, it's a 6x2 square tube btw

    discovered this under my front flares :(
    at least its under the flares, Im gonna probably sand it down and bondo and paint it or something idk, not sure I like the look without flares, the holes aren't very appealing

    also ignore the shiny tires, I didnt know this tire cleaner made them shiny
