    New pads and rotors. A decent improvement.

    I'm actually very pleased with it. I have the taco tunes system and it improves it noticeably just switching to it. I have to pull it back out to check the back up camera. I was excited everything bored up and played it forgot to check it before I put everything back together.

    I originally ordered the phoenix automotive screen since it was black and there were no knobs, felt it was a cleaner look. But they're customer service was horrible so I ended up canceling my order.

    Got the Shiny TuRD some 35s. UCAs get mounted Wednesday. Now I'm down the rabbit hole looking for a regear and tune. And going over what I'm going to tell my wife about how much all of that costs.

    Are you in CA? A buddy said they're illegal in CA if they can be turned on while driving on roads/highways/interstate and you have to remove the fuse or whatever.

    Elon is right, there's way too much regulation at both the Federal and State levels. I hope CARB goes away so we can have normal gas can spouts. The CARB-required spout is proof that government ruins everything.

    Not sure at this point.
    I think only legal off road. On road, they have to be covered. I think BD sells covers for all their lights.

    This is true. I wanna say any lights that are above your stock headlights are required to be covered while driving on road. But I drove my Tacoma like this for just about 15 years without getting pulled over for the lights.

    SDHQ brake lines are in. Coming home the other day, I got on the throttle and did some hard braking. I'll be dammed if I didn't get brake pulse again. I did factory rotors and Hawk LTS pads. Did the bed in procedure to the tee. Here I am back again with brake pulse. After going down the brake rabbit hole once again, I am going to look into Frozen or Stoptech cryo rotors with EBC green pads.

    Been holding off on this one as I was nervous about cutting up the carpet. Picked it up yesterday direct from ESP and installed just now while waiting for one of my orders from the Fred Anderson sale.

    Yeah, some of the laws here don't make sense but that's California for ya. With the lights, it seems like that alone wouldn't be enough reason to be pulled over. You would actually have to be blinding an oncoming cop to get pulled over for that. It's kind of like tinted windows. It seems like they don't pull you over just for that but they'll tack it on to the ticket if they pull you over for speeding. Ask me how I know. :(

    It sounds silly, but are all the lug nuts torqued equally. Like with a torque wrench?

    More fun times with my ARB air compressor! One of the waterproof fuse holders wasn’t waterproof, the wire corroded enough to cause intermittent drop out. Replaced both fuse holders with Midi holders and fuses. @BiggHertz has a much nicer solution, but I opted for the el-cheapo Dave fix.
