    A true wtf moment. .lol..

    engine is coming out this week and he is dropping a supercharged v6. Dana 60 up front and a 70 (i think that's what he said??) in the rear....also cutting the top off and going with a soft top.. Redneck engineering at its best

    Oh, and the front is getting linked

    Damn that's exactly what I'm thinking. Trying to decide between a brute force fab hc with dual swing out vs a relentless one. I'm leaning towards Brute force mostly because the much shorter lead time.

    anyone else use a KeyBar? I just got one for the hell of it because i hate keys jingling and my pocket being buldgey (yes). It was a real bitch to get the spacing right but once i finally got it so far i like it.

    I had one for about 3 days and then returned it. I just biner my keys to the side belt loop and then tuck them into my back pocket, stops the noise as well.

    i guess i was thinking the keys intersect and needed spacing. I watched some videos after being a tad frustrated with it last night as i assembled it. Realized the keys just lay against each other not intersect and things went easier after that. Its only been a few hours with it and using it a few times so its not a fair assessment yet.

    Totally. My biggest gripe was it was very hard to work one handed. I'm always carrying shit in from work and it's not so easy to spot the key and single it out etc. even with those fancy things they sell. Give it a few days!

    In-laws gave one to me as a stocking stuffer last Christmas. Jury's still out. They got the "long key" model, and I don't have any long keys. Plus, it only holds 6 of my keys. I think if I had the normal (instead of long key) version, and got the extenders to hold 8 keys, it would make more sense and be compact enough to justify.

    I use a quick- release connector so I can switch it between my work truck and Tacoma keys.

    I never keep it connected when keys are in the ignition- kneecap knocker. image.jpg
