Thanks for the response, I may have to get it swapped back to the stock regulator. The reason I wanted to go to 14.8 is so I can run lithium to support 6k.
Did you have to get a shorter belt for your Mechman?
I've finally got around to upgrading to a H/O alt for my sound system, so I got a 250 amp Brand X with a regulator bypass to bump my charging up to 14.8.
The issue you will run into if you go this route is the plug sticks out and hits the power steering pump bracket which you can see in this...
nice write up and install. I put the ILX-W650 in my 05 a few months back and have been pretty pleased with it besides android auto acting up sometimes. It was considering getting the kta 450 when I upgrade my speakers. Does it power yours pretty well? thanks for the install pics, hope to get...
Just got some vision manx 2 and 285/70/17 Toyo open country At III's put on. Had to do some trimming. Alignment almost back in spec with stock UCA's at Firestone Tech said.
5100's all around set to bottom. 885 in front, superflex in rear. Almost want to put a top plate spacer to bring the...

I was thinking about going to firestone to get my alignment after I install 5100's and 885/ Superflex this weekend.
Glad you mentioned the idea to get it done before so i'm locked in with lifetime Alignments. I'm going to see how it is without the JBA's for a bit but i'll prob end up ordering...
So as the title says I'm trying to get my lift installed this next weekend and have been slowly collecting the suspension components. I have the 5100's sitting in my spare room and the superflex/ 885 coils are on order. I plan on going the no spring compressor method mentioned: OME Install - no...
Awesome looks great, those springs seem to go nicely with the 5100's. I might end up goin with the eibach's. Might go with heavy springs in the back because I plan on having a couple hundred pounds of weight back there with a sub and and hopefully bumper
Alright cool appreciate it, I'm going to give the m10 a shot and get some new bolts. Saw on the chart M10 x 1.25 suggests an 8.9mm bit so i'll have to find that size at home depot.
Stripped Skid plate bolt
Just realized my skid plate is missing a few bolts from previous owner. I went to home depot and got the m8 size bolts that someone commented on an earlier thread.
When I tried installing them, they just slide all the way in with no bite.
I am looking to order a tap...
I Just picked up an 05 with the 4.7 vvti and the owner gave me maintenance records which shows they brought it to a private shop on 2 separate occasions.
1st time at 166k to replace Secondary air injection switching valves and intake manifold gasket. 2nd time about 6k miles later states they...
