    I had the same. Once I switched to a thicker diff fluid it went away.

    Nice spot for it!

    Not sure I wanna be looking down there. CA has some pretty terrible drivers and I’m one of them!

    Cool, thanks

    Is the stock fluid super thin like the recommended Oil?
    What did you switch to?

    Right on.
    Makes sense.

    I will put that on my list along with Trans Cooler and running thicker engine oil than Toyota recommended.

    Gotta slap that rear sway bar on as well one of these days.

    Trans Cooler
    Thicker engine oil
    Thicker diff oil
    Rear Sway Bar
    New Battery(factory battery is fading after 3 years)

    What else do I need to add to list? Mine is a work truck long bed.

    Ha try FL driving lol. One of my goals was keeping it out of sight. It's not bad looking down. It's much nicer than the old SG2. I love the easy dimming feature too.

    It would be very badass, I do agree
    might look kinda like this?

    Just out of curiosity...what does a quality 2-3" lift cost? How much for quality 35s"

    2gen long beds do look pretty funny I must say

    Can’t go wrong with Bilsteins or OME.

    I actually really like the looks of the extra extra long beds.

    One of the top 5 bad ass rigs on this forum. Looks fantastic! Congrats Rey!

    Though when I first saw that new “bumper” sticking out a tad, I immediately thought of this…

    Noticed you're having that shipped to a Toyota dealer :monocle:

    Are they doin' the install for you, or just using them to avoid the whole residential delivery thing????

    Yeah the Toyota dealer is doing the install for me with the hope that my warranty won't be voided. I only have 5000 miles on this truck. But either way I rather have Toyota do it than any other independent shop.

    That's awesome; I thought Toyota service departments all stopped doing that... Just out of curiosity, do you mind me asking what they are hitting you for the install???
