Dropped some $$$

I dropped over $1600 today in OEM rear axle items... Including the housing, and items to coat the snot out of it with several layers of truck bed liner to help prevent the new one from ever rusting out again...
 
Raised my front bumper to match my custom 1/2" body lift. Re-torqued front cam adjuster bolts and tie rod nuts because I did my own alignment yesterday. Cleaned the gray grease off of front suspension because of puking inner CVs caused by lift.
 
here's what i WILL do tomorrow

Not today, but tomorrow - Getting a new set of BFG to replace the Michelins that come with it. And got jealous of HungryEddys project.
 
Layed underneath mine today and made a list of things I want to replace/upgrade.
-Catalytic converter gasket replacement.
-front/rear sway bar bushings and end links.
-CV boot replacement/upgrade to porsche 930 boots
-Tundra 231mm brake upgrade
-Rust removal and prevention..needs a solid day with a wire brush and coating.

should keep me busy for a month :bluejump:
 
Raised the hood to check the fluid levels - not because there was any doubt, but because I often get an irresistible urge to raise the hood and don't know what else to do under there since nothin's broke.

Leveled and tightened the bars on my pet barrier - they had loosened up enough so that my 50 lb pointer could move them.

Cleaned all the cargo area glass - again, due to my 50 lb pointer.

Mounted my Maglite to the metal base of the driver's seat, using their mounting brackets - IMO that's the best place to put it. Makes for a "solid as a rock" mount and it's always within reach.

Took it Christmas shopping and grocery shopping.

I love that thing....
 
Replaced the stock Radiator with a koyo and added a B&M 70264 cooler to it as well. Managed to get it all done except dropped the big clamp to the upper radiator hose in the engine. Can't find the stupid thing in the dark now, hoping I can find it tomorrow. Kinda worried it ended up in a bad spot and will tear something up, who knows.
 
Drove to work for the first time after upper half rebuild..... felt good...... leaving house now to be a DD for friends and sing karaoke:girl:!
 
Cleaned the toilet paper off of it again. Then vacuumed it. This is the fourth time it's been covered in toilet paper! WTH

Drove my '01. Filled up w/premium (91 octane is about as good as it gets out here). Realized I got 14 MPG on my last tank. I need to lay off the skinny pedal. Why does that damn S/C have to be so fun.

Went out and stared at the '97. Thought to myself: "Why do your LCA Bushings have to be bad? Why can't they still be good?" Shut the garage door and left it out there in the cold to think about it's bad LCA bushings.

:roadkill:

You're in Tundra territory!

Jebus the RCSB is fast... and hard to stay out of the skinny when they sound good.
