I left the rear coil stock. Based on all my research I read that pretty much no one got what they wanted. It’s either too stiff or it lifted higher than expected. So I am leaving it stock.

What’s a rub ring? Obviously I didn’t if I’m asking this question.

Some aftermarket wheels have a larger bore than the stock wheels and hub. Thus requiring the use of hub ring to center the wheel on the hub. I personally don’t like using them.

I have honestly never heard of that. In that case I’d buy a different wheel that actually fits properly.

Thanks and appreciate the heads up on road conditions! I was already looking at taking a trip up Sea-to-Sky in late May, might have to come back via Hwy 12/Hwy 1.

Fluid Film entire frame. This year instead of paying for spray cans (AS) I used spray gun and Non-Aerosol fluid film from the bulk (NAS).
Bulk fluid film (in 3 litter cans) is about 2-3 times cheaper than in spray cans. And with spray gun wand it is actually easier to get to tight places. It took about 2 litters for Tacoma and a bit less than 2 litters for 4Runner. And I did over-spray a lot. I think 1 gal of NAS is good for the whole year (spring and fall). 35 dollars is a small price to pay for having pristine new frame in salt-on-the-road states.

Relocated my rear diff breather again after I melted my original mod line on the exhaust system. It's tough to see from the photos, but it is tucked up and behind the rear left wheel well. It's a little lower than if it was in the engine compartment, but higher than stock and hopefully than I'll be dunking it. If I go past the breather, I'll have water in the car lol.
I ended up breaking one of those pain in the ass square tabs when I was putting everything back together, so the most accessible tab spot has been ziptied shut. I might order new tabs at some point, but for now it's doing the job. A tip for anyone removing the tabs, I found that if I squeezed the retaining tabs in with a multi-tool and pushed it through the opening, it was the most efficient way to remove. Also I have no idea how you get the ones at the top of the wheel well liner off..I ended up keeping those on and JB-welding the breather through the opening in the side of the liner.

Last week
Last week on a rainy day in my driveway. 2WD with traction turned on. Left twin stripes. Felt the traction control grab once and got a beep at the dash. Looks like that stuff really works to keep both wheels going. Also makes the neighbors wonder what's going on. Next rainy day I'll try it in 4WD. May need a Ford Raptor to do it on a dry day.

Sounded like it, too! I almost jumped out of my seat.
I was hoping to get it filled before it developed a crack, but no such luck. It's already cracked going halfway up the middle of windshield.
At least it's just a straight, vertical crack in an place where it won't obstruct my view or anything.
