    Shortly after I discovered this site and got set up my build was totaled but I’m back now with a newer truck that I have already put a lot of work into. Started with a 2008 tundra sr5 double cab 8ft bed but when tragedy struck in the peak of Covid I was forced to “upgrade” to a 2019 Tundra sr5 double cab 8ft bed. It took awhile but the new truck is growing on me. My main reasons for building out a truck are hunting/camping and lots of long road trips. 9E4EE6D6-F443-4E7D-97FB-CF9F52B3CD8E.jpg4259178D-98AA-4638-989D-AB065771BFAB.jpg

    Thanks! This is something I’ve been working on the last few weeks that I just installed today. It’s a leg bone from a spike elk. The hardest part was degreasing the bone.

    Very cool idea on the shift handle! Not too difficult either which is just a bonus!
