    Yeah it's a mall crawler. Lol I have the jeep for off-roading anyways. According to the guys at the dealer it's 410 stock. I'll have to double check then.

    Great looking truck.

    Regarding the supercharger you now can get the FFE version and I heard its installation is even easier, 550 hp and 550 ft lb torque and you can laugh at the Raptors all day long.

    5.7s come with tow package. Tow package comes with 4.30...at least that's my understanding.

    Your window sticker will tell you final drive ratio. Door jamb sticker may also tell you. Seems a little silly to spend 50ish K on a new truck and not be aware of final ratio but thats just me...im anal about that stuff. What does not surprise me is the Toyota salesmen not only dont know what axle they sold you they told you the wrong shit instead of just looking.

    Thanks Gohuskers. I'll look into that super charger for the flex fuel. As far as the gears size I wasn't to worried either way since I'm already set on upgrading to the 488 gears. Thanks for the info.

    It's different, the blue wheels. I don't think it's too over done though. All black and the blue wheels. I absolutely love it haha

    I decide to paint the Toyota letters matte black instead of gray today. Since my truck doesn't have any gray tones on the exterior.

    Just so you guys can see how far to measure from the center Edgar of the bumper trim where the pocket is. I mounted my lights so they look more centered on the black painted trim pc.

    It's not bad to mount them TexasMofo. You use the blue painters tape to mask it off and mark it. Then drill the four corners with a drill bit. Then simply cut the sides, top and bottom with a sharp utility knife. You will need to pull the painted trim pcs off to cut the back side of the bumper so the rigid dually lights fit.

    If you have chrome bumpers then you will need to cut it with something else.

    Installed 50" rigid radiance bar today. I'm going to use the red Radiance light as a brake light and run the spots on a separate switch.

    Going to start installing my seven switches from OTRATTW for all my exterior lighting. I do need to change my "Grille Lights" to "Hood Lights". I will have four switches total for each of my two radiance lights. Im doing the four top switches for the front of my truck and the bottom three for the back of my truck. I'm going to install the switches in the location just in front of the shifter next to the single small cup holder.

    To remove the trim pc is very easy to do and all you need is a flat screw driver. Remove the shifter by unscrewing it by hand. Then use a flat screw driver to pry the trim under the arm rest and the rest of it can pulled off by hand very easily. IMG_4838.jpgIMG_4839.jpg
