Today I decided to paint all of my chrome trim black along with the door handles.

Got Lazy Today - Took in to Broadway Toyota
Took it into Broadway Toyota for my 320,000 mile maintenance check (JK). Actually it was time for the fluids to get replaced and I just had way too much stuff to do.

Last week I lowered my Toytec Eibach/Tundra Bilstein 5100's to the first perch from the third. Dropped less than an inch, way better ride, fixed my vibrations. Took em to a shop rather than do it myself again... The guy at the shop asked me if I had a death wish for compressing them by hand hahaha.
Today, I replaced a broken LED dash light(friggen signal light... What a pain in the a**).
Added a switch for the motorized antenna(totally copied some dude that posted his work a couple days ago here):
Then I finally installed my dash cam. Instead of routing the usb cable all the way down the A-pillar and through the dash, I figured I'd splice into my map lights and add a switch so I can turn it off. Voila:

I finished my lift and installed the diff drop! :thumb:
About 3 inches all the way around. I'm hoping the front settles a little bit.

Broke my front sway bar linkage.
Noticed my sway bar linkage was broken while going over speed bumps. (Makes a nice popping sound) Broke the other side a month ago while off-roading. Both broke the exact same way, clean breaks on the lower mounting point. Good news is my 4runner actually drives more smoothly. At least in my opinion. Think I'm gonna keep it this way for awhile.

Several Things were worked on today. Out of three tasks, I have two out of three done. One I can't finish yet.
These came in the mail and were waiting for me to come home. I got them installed this morning and I've very happy with them!
Other parts came in the mail...
I got my coolant temp gauge and other parts as well. Now don't judge the mounting plate. Right now I'm wanting to make sure everything works and lasts.
The one part that doesn't work (and makes me quite mad) was the Coolant Hose Adaptor:
Amazon.com: Docooler® Water Temp Temperature Joint Pipe Sensor Gauge Radiator Hose Adapter 32mm Blue: Automotive
I called TWO DIFFERENT parts stores to verify the diameter of the of the Radiator hose and they both said 1 1/4". No, it's 1 3/8"!!!! So I have to get a larger one. Right now I have the sensor zip tied near where it needs to go to test out the gauge. If everything works, I'll make a new mounting plate for it all. Clean it up and make everything flow real nice.
So the one on the left is the cab temp. The middle will be coolant temp, and the one on the right is engine compartment temp. I don't like how the Koso Gauge is only attached with Velcro. I really need to find a way to get it recessed like the other two gauges.
