    I think I am going to try and find a stainless steel bolt and completely do away with my antenna.

    I like this. I've never heard my reception on the radio once since I've owned it. Not even with the stock antenna

    I have a satellite radio receiver that has a lifetime subsription so I never listen to any local radio stations. I couldn't even tell you what frequency my local stations are on.

    Gobi roof rack. Icon coilovers, Icon tubular UCAs, FOX 2.0 rear shocks, Icon 3-leaf progressive AAL.
    I de-badged awhile back and still had the TACOMA badge sitting on a shelve in the garage. I ran across someone else that did this but can't remember who it was. I cut the letters apart, sanded and painted them.



    I looked down and noticed the mileage. It's not really a milestone




    But is the same when up-side-down.

    I am going to go to a hardware store and see what I can come up with. I like the idea about the acorn nut.

    Getting my CMC plates welded on tomorrow morning before wheeling Sunday :bananadance: I know there are plenty of guys who run them open, but the idea of that sketches me out.

    Ended up going to a random run down hole in the wall welding and custom fab shop, but the guy has like 40 years in the field, so I think I'm in good hands.

    Agreed. I got some weight and they just don't meet my expectations.
