    Put another 25 miles early AM on the truck after yesterdays KDMAX Pro+XT tune and enjoying how it's settling in nicely! With a little luck I can make another run later today.

    The blue tint took a little while to get used to but does help with glare.

    Twistedshifterz grey pearl knob and DIY boot spacer. Not happy with the spacer. Gonna redo that part. Love the knob though.

    News to me. Slicing a noodle and fitting it over the vents I assume?

    Not exactly.
    1. Choose a small noodle the colour of you Taco preferable.
    2. Slice noodle(optional dependant on size) to allow it to compress between cab and box.
    3. Feed a piece of wire through it to assist with placement.
    4. Feed noodle from right to left side over fuel tank.
    5. Once presses in place just above the bottom of the cab floor, use the wire to straighten noodle and tip the ends downward to allow water to run off. Then remove wire.
    6. Drive around the block and realize you just spent $2 on the cheapest mod ever with immediate results on reducing road noise.

    Question about the 6112’s…I’ve been looking at these mainly for leveling out the front end. I don’t care for the forward slant. I don’t want to just go the cheap route with spacers. I know these give me the option to lift it higher in the future as well if I desire. However, they are not cheap. Is there a significant improvement in ride and handling over the stock Bilstein shocks that come with the TRD Off Road? Are they stiffer? Less body roll? Less nose dive? Those kinds of things. I don’t mind spending that kind of money if it will improve the overall handling of the truck. I just can’t justify that amount of money for a small front end lift.

    Blackout sequential mirror signals. Easy install but a little scary popping off the mirror covers. Felt like I was going to break them. Happy with results.

    Before and after. Couldn't get vid of sequential working to load

    I agree. It’s like all those people who spend money to get rid of all the chrome on their trucks.

    DuroBumps bump stops
