    I centered my dash mount a little better. Not perfect, but better. Tearing everything apart to get to the bolts is a bit intimidating. But not bad. I used tape to hold the bolt to socket for the back stereo bolts. 5724F01B-C878-48F8-827F-F172F6E79416.jpg91F44B4D-1BCB-4A7F-9773-9B0B2BC431E9.jpg981BCEEF-DF22-4313-8E29-7E128348CA33.jpg

Other side has a plate. What would this plug actually go to? Another USB port?B7E9FECF-DA12-47B0-B50C-3D778C701ADB.jpg8CF0A123-7CF6-46A9-91E6-C255887BBF5D.jpg

    These trucks are pre-wired for the different trims and options. I don't remember what that plug is for but it might be for the glass breakage sensor.

    Maybe a sensor of some sort?

    Check the build link in my signature.
    That’s for the glass break sensor/mic.
    You can buy a kit with it and the glass break ECU, then turn on the system via Techstream. If you don’t have the hood latch sensor you either have to add that too or jumper it.

    Ok. Thanks for the info. I don’t think I need it that bad. I’ll let it the way it is. Maybe sometime I can use that space for a future mod. :thumbsup: I’m glad I joined this forum. There’s a wealth of information on here from all of you.

    Got new 35x12.50r17 duratracs on yesterday. Wanted to go with a mud terrain but got hooked up with $600 off so couldn’t pass it up. They didn’t balance the best so we’ll see how that goes. Shop said to bring them back and I’ll get another set put on if balance can’t be fixed. I was surprised to see these are now 3 ply sidewall.

    No worries, I'm 6'6" so I don't have a ton of issue but thinking about my wife who is a foot shorter... I'll need to double check the tension but even before I tightened it was difficult

    Oil change this morning before the rain moved in. Just slightly a PITA. Apparently the filter cap drain plug was put on tighter than the filter cap itself causing the whole cap to twist off when trying to take the plug out.

    Luckily I was able to minimize the mess and had to put the filter cap in a vise to get the drain plug out. On a good note, this was my first oil change using the Fumoto Valve and it was awesome.

    Got a great deal on this open-box TRD skid plate from my local dealership. Won't be able to install for another couple of weeks, but just finished slapping four coats of ultra-matte black on it. My taping and spray painting skills are getting better, but still nowhere near the legend who is @BlueRibbon4x4 :bowdown:

    Adjusted my tire pressures because the temperature have dropped as we move in what passes for winter around here.
    Moved the raptor lights closer together.

    Nice! I love mine. They are 285/75s and have around 32k miles on them now. Still quiet. Everyone says they get super noisy, but mine haven’t yet. I religiously rotate every 3k-4k miles. Fantastic tire that sits somewhere between mud and all terrain.

    Purchased the wiring and a bigger bus bar. I have to go from a 4 post to a 6 post. Also ran the power wire from the bed to the engine compartment. The panel and mount will be here tomorrow.

    Installed a carven exhaust system with a resonator. Sounds great, but I don’t think the wife will like it lol.

    How are the tow mirrors any problems? I have a set coming in. Just worried if they’ll vibrate on Highway speeds

    Found a soft topper for my long bed for 300$. Though I haven't had it long, I am quite impressed with the quality and design of it.

    Going to have to start a build thread on this truck. There is so much more I have on my list to do to it.
