    I had pulled the air spats and front mud flaps for looks so I’m not sure if they would have rubbed or not. Wheel liners, uca, and cab mount have plenty of clearance.

    if you are running a OEM (nonTRD) skid you’ll need to trim the edges.

    if you prepped it well you should get 4-6 months out of it. It is by far the best tire shine product I have ever owned.

    What rear suspension do you have? Truck sits really well with the camper attached.

    Took its picture next to its little brother. Sadly the 06 isn’t staying but will be in the family as my brother-in-law is buying it.

    Looks so good!! I love the tail gate. Very old school, takes me back to the 70's and custom vans with free hand pinstripes.

    I'm a fan of personal touches an not at all opposed to pinstriping. It's a classy mod. :thumbsup:

    However, my OCD is very symmetry based and I couldn't handle a variance from one side to the other. It's hard enough that the trucks aren't square from the factory, so this would kill me.

    Hopped on a Prime Day deal for crewmax tyger blades. They fit my DC fine, and I like the extra length for side bed access.

    I pulled mine off after it was on for 3 years and it wasn’t difficult. If anything - use a hair dryer as I’ve seen a few people here ruin paint with too much heat.

    No I just pulled them off. One side came off no problem. The other took a little work to get the adhesive removed

    Analyzed every sound the truck makes:
    Wife took truck for a few days to haul bikes for the kids (few hundred miles round trip) and came back home. I hopped in and asked if she noticed the truck was in 4wd.
    Me: how long has the truck been in 4wd?
    Wife: huh?
    Me: 4wd light is on. Has the truck been hard to turn or not “steering” normal?
    Wife: huh? I don’t know.
    Me: (trying to not absolutely lose my shit) OK. Not a problem.

    Rant over. Not a real problem but damn!

    I pulled mine a little over a week ago. Don't heat them too much, or they tear instead of peel. I heated a corner enough to get a grip, then slow even peel, and they come off clean. It was high 70s low 80s.

    Yeah, I’ve seen a lot of people on Tacoma world do it or say it’s in a bad spot. Idk, it is its own switch and it’s shown on the cluster. It can happen but I don’t see myself or my wife accidentally switching it on.
