    Amp/Sub with stock jbl radio

    sorry, been a while since I've logged on. No issues so far. 10" Kicker CompVR bumps nicely. The toughest part was deciding where to run all the wiring.

    Roof Rack Got a deal on a roof rack and some steel it paint recently. Super easy install and perfect fit which was tight since it's not a name brand or whatever. Quality is solid too. I have scene lights for the sides (2 per side) but no harness yet so I'm waiting to put those on.

    SWC adapters don't work (with jbl)

    Ok so I'm a bit of an idiot. The crux harness does work. Shoutout to riceandpho for teaching me that only 3 of the pins are what powers the steering wheel controls. So all the extra pins are what makes it "universal" for every damn toyota with JBL. I also programmed the wrong brand headunit on...

    SWC adapters don't work (with jbl)

    Just ordered the PAC RP4.2-TY11 Radiopro4 Ty11. I'm hoping that this one works even if it is a pain to wire.

    SWC adapters don't work (with jbl)

    Hey all, so I've tried the Crux SWRTY 61j and the crux CS-TJ20. Both ended up looking exactly alike btw. Anyways, the main connection works perfect and the head unit works, but I cant connect the second harness clip because the pins dont line up (Picture below). As you can see the pins dont...

    Exterior Update I got bored and tired of the plasti dip so I painted my wheels with rustoleum. added 1.5 in wheel spacers in the front and moved the 1.25 in spacers to the rear. Sold the BD lights. Also got the under headlight trim and painted it to match.

    Front suspension "loose change" noise

    Yeah I'm sure it's coming from the front. I try to listen and figure out every noise that appears and this one I can't get. I've been told it's my CV axles because they're ripped and have been for the past 2 years :/ but I'm gonna change them in the next month or two.

    Wheel bearing assembly So I was randomly blessed with a worn wheel bearing the other night. Sounded like the driver side wheel was playing wheel of fortune lol. Anyways, 147 bucks at autozone and an hour later it's all fixed and rides better. It was surprisingly a quick install. I'll do the...

    MT rear LT springs I'm more into the fast paced open desert type of stuff, so eventually I'd like to go LT in the rear. I picked up these MT LT springs medium duty along with Califab lower links and the extended brake lines. I'm still waiting on the links to show up. The plan is to strap the...

    Extended Rear Links I couldn't justify spending $150 on dobinsons adjustable end links, or take the time to build my own, so I found these moog end links . They're an inch longer than oem and fit perfect. I haven't felt much of a difference driving, but with 2.5 inches of lift in the rear I...

    New TC LCA Finally got my hands on some Total Chaos LCAs. Pretty stoked on getting rid of the crappy balljoints and being able to run a secondary later on. Install was easy besides lining up the cradle to spindle bolts, so shoutout TC for making everything fit perfect. The ride feels a lot...

    Front suspension "loose change" noise

    Not silly at all. I appreciate the idea, but everything in there seemed secure with no play :/

    Front suspension "loose change" noise

    Hey all. My front suspension has a loose change noise when driving below 30mph. Sounds just like a bad ball joint except, I have TC UCA and LCA with uniballs and no sway bar. My CV axle boots have been torn for a year ish and I'm thinking they might be the issue. Also have Kings 2.5 ext...
