    F150 fuel tank?

    There is a company, maybe a couple now, that make an aux fuel cell that will fit in the spare tire area. It looked like a very involved process to do it correctly. Maybe you could just get some steel skids.

    Rear facing car seats, tall driver

    I did this when my first son was young. Just take the car seat with you and put it in. Rear facing always sucks because they have to lean back. Sometimes you can use a car seat wedge to help a bit but it depends on the car seat. If you're looking to use multiple forward facing car seats keep in...

    Damage from shifting to 4lo while in D/P?

    Well when you're running a switch for the transfer case you're less likely to have an issue. I think what he's talking about is the manual lever transfer case. He basically attempted to yank the gears into place which just isn't possible with the electronic shifter. Driving is doable with the...

    So it looks like the CTHome T9 head unit is out, waiting for reviews.

    I posted this to the CTH T9 facebook group. I'll leave it here incase anyone wants to try it. Last link is a video on how to program buttons in the built-in steering wheel app. Bypass Canbus Steering Wheel Controls To Allow Programmable SWC DISCLAIMER: Attempt this at your own risk! I accept no...

    If you had to pick, SofTex or genuine leather?

    If you want a certain type of color then get leather. I have softex and i like it. Seems durable so far. If you go with genuine leather just make to take care of it. You will have to condition it. If not, it becomes hard and will eventually crack. Let your heart and wallet decide.

    Weird noise under my brand new 2020

    New cars definitely have a stiff suspension. Really more of feeling but i suppose it could make sounds not allowing things to flex and lean properly. Sounds like its a loose exhaust hanger. I had a new vehicle break a piece of the muffler loose once. Didnt hear a rattle but it stalled the...

    Woke up to this...

    So my brother has an aluminum bumper on his tacoma. Lady at his apt basically rolled her her car forward against it while looking at her phone or something and basically peeled her brand new Ford sedan open from the bumper to the door. Several panels just torn back. The pics were crazy. Shearing...

    New Dasaita Head-unit

    Never understood the anti china mentality when it comes to this. Basically every device we own is data mining us. This has always been the case. Doesnt matter who made it. Someone gathers info and sells it. Made in the USA is a f'n joke as youll likely find under scrutiny that their products...

    AR-15 Storage in 2019 4Runner

    While I can get where your coming from I would assume unless your beating the shit of your rifle you should not have any issues simply storing it. Optics certainly can be delicate but even still, a proper optic should be able to handle car rides. If it couldn't, would I really trust it with my...

    Is there a mod addressing the lack of a switch to turn on all interior lights?

    Seems like it would be a lot of extra wires to keep things working normal due to the dome/hatch switches having 3 positions. Always on > on when triggered > off. If I really needed it, I would probably tap into the door switch wires so as to have minimal wiring and just use a switch on the dash...

    Roof Rack- Storage Security

    Honestly if they are gonna take your stuff, they are gonna it. The only thing you can do is make it more difficult. If they had time to climb up there cutting straps and locks and drag it off then I would assume prying open a lid is no big deal. I just wouldn't keep anything worthwhile in it...

    Door Light LED Swap Fuse(?) Issue

    Not sure exactly the extent of this issue here. Do your led lights come on at all? Are you saying your headlights stay on after locking with the fob? If that's the case, check your doors after Fob lock and see if any are unlocked. It would mean you need to replace the lock actuators. If your...

    TRD Pro Side Mirror Swap/Upgrade

    Coming into this drama well after the fact. It is sad. Not sure why this forum feels the need to censor valuable information based on monetary reasons. It's a public forum. The real value is in the information, not carefully curated vendor lists. If I could suggest that threads not be removed...
