Finally got my Bilstein rear shocks on and squeezed some 33's on her. (Already had 3in lift in front and old man emu coils in back)

Worked on project “Light Runner” the $600 TuRD. It’s a total train wreck I’m building with parts off the shelf. Replaced the lower strut bushings with some from a 2013 Tacoma. Added a 1” spacer up front so now the truck is 1.75” all around with its massive weight reduction. Also modified the calipers to fit 15” wheels

I'm using a cheap ass OBD2 Bluetooth adapter plugged in under the dash.

The Torque App.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque&hl=en_US $5

Then I found a Samsung Tablet on sale, but you can use just about anything Bluetooth enabled.
the tablet is nice, I can use it for nav. the gauges can overlay ontop of any other program also.
oh yah, and some "RAM" mounts.
Torque will display anything the OBD2 spits out.

I posted what you did here, and I bet more ask about it:

Replaced the front output shaft seal on the transfer case.
Installed ARB diff breather kit.
Took it up to 8000ft to see fall colors

From one of the Torque forums-

https://torque-bhp.com/forums/?wpforumaction=viewtopic&t=36.0

its a pretty straight forward deal, my tablet is a little too big, but closeout sale was hard to beat $35
good luck i think many guys here use it or scan pro2
 
Finished up my gear oiling with the final 1.2ish quarts in the transfer case and also the final grease zerk on the drive shaft, which was mysteriously always out of reach no matter how I parked....the driveline is lovely and quiet now.

Still trying to track down a noise in bottom of the engine , not sure of a bit of piston slap or like several seem to have suffered from...a flex plate issue.

Purchased some OEM Toyota Window Visors from a member on here. Placed orders on, fat pat 1"body lift kit, TBU, OEM Lower Ball Joints, Clear Depo Lights, ToyTec steel braided lines, some plastic guys bumpstops, some quick disconnect endlinks, and supercharger rebuilt cone kit. Placing an order for some nitro gears, and paying my buddy for his supercharger (cant beat $1100) with all parts included. The future misses gave the green light before we tie the knot.
 
Polished the original stock rims today. I sanded the corrosion off a few months ago before getting them polished up. I have been testing out metal polish on them since. I thought I would give a shout out to Never Dull Eagle One. I have tried quite a few and think i have a winner. It can also be used on the chrome pieces without any problem.
