    I'm sure mine wouldn't look this good if it were a work truck vs. daily driver although play time on the bikes can bring mud & dirt it's way.

    Just a slow roll thing here thing there transformation on 05 and then had 1 day chop shop drill to get all the goodies off the 05 to go on the 08 while they did make ready since they had just got it in at dealership when I found it. And it continued from there. Hard to believe I only had the 05 for 2 yrs and have already had the 08 for 5 yrs now. Time flies. That black cover on your bench makes it look so much better.

    I must've went through 4 or 5 cheapo seat covers before I went Wet Okole. It does look a shit ton better.

    Yep, love mine. Made the seats more comfortable and looks much better than that gray stuff did.

    Thanks, Kick! This height works really welI for me, and aligned with no issues. I went with OME N182 because they were about an inch or so longer in full extension, and just slightly shorter in full compression, compared to the bilstein 5100. That let me take advantage of a little more droop without having to modify my bump stops or brake lines. I picked then up from Wheelers on sale.

    I just wish they sold a rubber all weather floor option for our trucks. I had to take the carpet out of mine wish there was a nice solution to fix it.

    Why couldn't you get the Toyota all weather flooring from 2012-2015 (not sure which yr it became an option) access cab and cut it to fit reg cab? Not sure but maybe it is also available for RC 4wd trucks too so no cutting? Don't remember why I was thinking I'd have to get AC and trim.............I thought about this option as opposed to doing black carpet. Especially now that the gray carpeted back wall wouldn't show between buckets since adding DC storage bins.

    Idk. I just figured it wasn't an option since my truck is a base base model and didn't come with it. Thought if mine didn't then it wasn't an option lol

    That's me leaking oil out of my filter I believe. The oem filters are weak and I ever so slightly crushed it on the last oil change. My dumb ass forgot about it until now.

    In general I don't get along with this oil filter setup and end up looking like a dumbass.

    are you threading that thing on by hand!?

    I always end up making a huge mess and cursing a lot when I do oil changes on my 2.7. The easy things never go smoothly.
