    There was a sale on cattle fence panels this weekend, so I had to figure out a way to get 10 of them home. They are 16 feet long and my trailer is 8 feet long. I needed some 10 foot long t-posts as well. When I loaded the cattle panels they were touching the ground behind the trailer. So with some ratchet straps and a bunch of zip ties I made it work. The workers at the store could not comprehend what I was trying to do with the zip ties and t-posts.

    Driving the new Tacoma as a rental. Surprised just how awful the turning radius is.

    I miss my truck. (Edit - my truck is fine, work trip)

    Pretty sure the mounts are Plebe-bay specials. SAE driving pattern.

    Check the build link in my signature.
    Got the platinum puddle lights actually working correctly (with fade in/out even).

    Then packed it for T2S…

    The new Tacoma is less daily friendly than our trucks in my opinion. Larger turning radius, drastically less cabin space, and just about the same width if I recall correctly.

    So I ordered that tailgate piece. Found it on Fred Anderson for like 40 dollars cheaper. Tried to cancel the ebay order since it hadn't shipped and ordered from FA. Well, get an email yesterday saying they won't cancel the ebay order it already shipped. So this morning I canceled the FA order, only to IMMEDIATELY after get an email from ebay saying they didn't actually ship it and they canceled the order. :annoyed:

    So just ordered again from FA. From now on I only shop fred anderson for parts. They always have the best prices, no shipping charge and you know you will get OEM.

    Here’s a better look at the Stealth Chase Rack. Since ADD does not make one for the Tundra, I went ahead and custom fitted one.

    Sold my Camburg LT kit and ordered the LSK race kit with custom shock towers to accommodate a larger shock package. While the trucks apart strikes again.

    The front will be 17-18" The rear shock is also for future plans of potentially linking the truck. The rear will cycle 27"+ if we link it. With leafs anywhere from 16"-19"

    Heat gun, some string, rubbing alcohol and then a wax over the area you did it to. Done this on 6 cars or so, never had it show. I'm sure there are fancier ways.

    Appreciate it. I’m just worried the paint has faded a bit and it will look darker where the badges were.
