    what advantages does this have over OE?[/QUOTE]

    better holding capacity, for when I supercharge the truck. higher mass fly wheel to keep for better takeoff in 1st gear and from what I understand the higher mass fly wheel is great for steep hills when off roading.

    Finally took the "chin strap"/ air dam off. The truck looks VERY DIFFERENT. I swapped out the headlight trim with color match ones from Meso and that was honestly a PITA more than it should have been

    Yeah, the one that’s in the grille area.

    I mean looking at it, that might not make that much of a difference but worth a second look?

    Sorry to see that. Hope the repairs are to your approval.

    I think I may be replacing my bumper with a piece of 6” well casing. :welder:

    Its double the pain because I already did my flares before. I sprayed them with raptor liner and DIDNT BREAK ONE SINGLE TAB and today I broke a tab on each fender flare. Oh well. Its holding up from what I can see.

    Thanks, how much higher did you go over stock? Did you feel the vibration I spoke of prior to rolling the pinion? It more noticeable at low speeds for me, kind of like a worn mud tire chatter, but the speed of the vibration doesn’t match the rotation of a tire.

    Was doing the calculation difficult? Did you use your phone? I have a crew cab short box TRD OR.. not sure where to start?

    Uhhh, brought it home I guess? Traded in my 2021 TRD Offroad with 25K.

    2022 TRD Offroad with only 2500 miles. Guy bought it September 2022 and traded it in November 2022... His loss...

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    But, the reason for the trade was this...

    [​IMG]

    Took me a while to find a clean 6 speed manual truck!

    I did swap in my TRD Pro tails I had in my '21...

    I just noticed on my old headlamps there was a gap as well. Maybe I just had a bad build off the lot in 17’.
    Not sure why I never noticed it. I feel like it stands out more w the new headlamps.
