    In other news. Got the truck aligned today. Feels great. My local Toyota dealer is a block away so I decided to stop in. Was chatting with the store manager and saw my sales guy snooping around the Tundra and eyeballing the suspension and what not. Came back out to the truck and there was a nice surprise. TRD shift knob...I guess for just being such an awesome customer :notsure:



    And I decided to see how "available" the discontinued superchargers actually were. Service guy was super cool. Said they had installed 3 this month already. He called the warehouse to confirm inventory...there was one left on the shelf. Sigh.....

    I wish the dealer would give me the SC and charge me for the TRD shift knob. If your are going to wish, go large

    Most useless cup holder ever! I'm getting the "ashtray" cup holder thing-a-ma-bob and putting it there to use for spare change.

    :amen:


    Oh yeah...this was soooooooooooooo worth the $25 on Amazon:

    Wheels and tires are on. Good lord what a difference it made! IMO, the size and wheel backspacing makes it sit PERFECT.

    So as I mentioned, Method Standards in 18x9 (18mm offset) and BFG AT KO2's in 35x12.50x18. I had to remove the mud flaps and the lower part of the front of the fender aprons on the front bumper. It rubs the cab mount just a little bit at full lock, but nothing a simple CMC won't fix. That's happening in short order.

    I've spent enough time and money on this thing for the time being. It goes into Toyota on Monday for the s/c. After that my plan is to just drive it for a while.

    You have definitely dropped some money into that thing. It looks very clean and with a blower, I can't imagine how happy you are with it. Who did your alignment? They give you any numbers on what they ended up with? Just curious after having mine done and getting a print out.

    Blower goes on Monday. I'm happy with this thing without it. I'm at @Relentless HQ right now getting the CMC done.
    I had Les Schwab do the alignment. Their printer was broken, but I did look at the screen. I don't remember the exact numbers but I had the tech push the caster as far forward as he could and still stay in the green. Literally straddled the red. He's going to email me the printout once the printer is fixed and I can post it up after.

    Well the supercharger is in. Sweet baby jesus. Took my sales guy for a spin right out of the dealership. Scared the ever loving shit out of him. Roasted 35" tires until I lifted off the throttle. Life is good.
    Also just spent $400 at camelback Toyota for some other shit :anonymous:

    Oh yeah, just picked up the truck today...I should totally know how shitty my gas mileage is :rolleyes:
    Can't really comment definitively at this point. I put 50 miles on the truck today. Basically down the mountain to Carson and back up. According to the HUD I averaged 16.8. I'll report actual gas mileage after I fill up.

    Installed the Sequia front sway bar and the TRD rear. Got 600 mile road trip ahead of me so I'll report back.
    Didn't exactly install the rear sway bar according to instructions. I rotated it 90* off the back side of the diff instead of the bottom.

    That's the second time I've seen the rear sway installed this way. I like it better. Wonder if it changes anything?

    Truck handles like its on fucking rails now! Huge difference in on-road manners.

    Also...I thought these trucks were governed at 110 mph? I pushed passed 120 yesterday without a hick up (obviously on a private road). Maybe it was part of the ECM reflash with the sc?
