    For the folks with vented seats. This takes the cold air foot vent under the driver seats and pushes that air up into the fan that sends air to the seat. So instead of just the vehicle air being used for the vented seat, its pushing the cold ac air

    Applied the vinyl decals to my wheels to see how I liked black. I’ve been going back and forth between black and dark gray for wheel color. I do like the black so may stay with it. [​IMG]

    Also picked up some Bilstein 5100 front and 5160 rears from @Totmacher so need to get those installed soon.

    The inferno pro grill has been back ordered all year so I’m thinking about pickingup a different color if I can find one and having a body shop paint matchit. The chrome front end needs to go.

    Got my oil analysis back. I tried Kirkland 0w20 this round. I'll send in another sample when I change it at 60k to see how it holds up. I'm also gna send off a sample of my trans fluid when I get to my first D&F here soon

    Too many mods to come

    Better mount, better bushing, just like the motor mount upgrade. Less movement etc

    less flex in the drivetrain so you ultimately get more power to the wheels

    Thank you both for that information.
    I am currently experimenting with ideas for my truck
    I am hoping to see one manifest next week. Lord willing.

    I will look into upgrading my mounts later this year.

    This helps if you have aftermarket floor mats to send the air up and out. Also, I have an aftermarket amp and rack that doesn’t get the heater on it constantly in the winter.

    etsy has them. Great product.

    S&B intake, Dirty Deeds 8", Airlift airbags with Daystar contact cups, LED's everywhere including Diode Dynamics stealth front LED bar, Baja Design Squadron II's on CBI ditch light brackets, completed Diode Dynamics interior LED's. Full RCI skids with cat guards and sliders, Transfer flow 46 gallon tank. Radflo 2.5 IFP coilovers, Coachbuilder shackles, TRD rear sway bar. 295/70R18 Nitto RG's. Dobinson snorkel, softopper.
    Search Tundra floor vents on Etsy. That's where I got mine.

    What's most impressive/embarrassing is how much I've spent on gas since I bought it in 2018. It had 86k on it when I bought it for $27k, I'm now up to $32k/10765 Gallons in fuel in the last 7 years.
