What did you do to/in your 5th Gen today?!

Replaced UCA bushings and 4X4 actuator.

What did you have to feed it to get it to sit still long enough to take those pictures?

Stopped by Demello Offroad to pick up by hybrid bolt on sliders. Had to get a poser shot with their built 5th Gen on 35"s!

I assume you are going to make us wait anxiously to find out what you purchased??

Haha, nothing special, I Had planned down the road to upgrade from the current setup. The extra bumper weight and a leaking 5100 dictated a quicker decision, I went with the Toytec Super flex HD and a pair of the Boss rear shocks. If my guess is correct I'll get around an inch of lift back in the rear and be able to load it with stuff and not have the reverse rake I get now. Big road trip coming and need to get things buttoned down so I can focus on trip planning.

Oh and they shipped since that other post, since they are going across town, probably get here tomorrow.
 
How long did those TC bushings last you

A year but it was my fault. I never loosened the trough bolt whenever I'd grease them so the bushings deformed. The bottoms aren't bad but I want to replace them anyway since I have the bushings for those too.
 
Found access into some fairly gnarly mountain trails I've been dying to get into. Lots of mud, rocks and logs to play with. Funny thing about the Adirondacks, it depends on which town you're in as to weather or not trails are open. One side of a mountain can be gated and posted while another side is wide open. Looking forward to doing more exploring.
 
Went to install my TRD skid and ran into a problem on this bolt. The bracket over the hole doesn't line up like the other one does and it makes the bolt tough to start and harder to tighten down. Thinking I can drill out the hole that lines up so its larger or use some c-clamps and some jb weld to keep the bracket in place to line up how it should.

What do you guys think?

 
Have you torqued down to the other bolts already, or are the others just a bit loose while your trying to thread this one in?
