The cats out of the bag now!
I've raided my local wrench-a-part for visors and LS400 brakes (for my SC), but never knew I could take the wheel! Can I replace just the wheel and not the airbag? Judging by the existing Toyota logo, I'm assuming so. Do you know if there's a particular year range?

This is what I found in mine when I cleaned it out.

Spaghetti Warehouse? Now that sounds like quality dining.
Oh man, back in college I LOVED Spaghetti Warehouse! Cheap dinner with salad, pasta, all you can eat bread, and spumoni for dessert. It was like seven bucks, perfect for a college student splurge. And the restaurant itself was like a high-end place, just beautiful old-world euro style. We were uptown.
And nice job on the cruiser. That Wit's End rear panel is awesome, definitely on my shopping list.

Spaghetti warehouse for our go to place in high school for some reason. Probably because it was downtown and cheap.
Truck looks great! Did you put OME lift on it? How do you like the sound system you installed, what amp did you end up using? Damn stereo systems cost more than a lift! I saw someone else installed the same one in his GX and I’m thinking about it. I like the component pioneer system I put in my jeep better than alpine. Enough questions for now. Keep up the good work!

Thanks! I really like the stereo. It can be glitchy sometimes when using CarPlay. Sometimes I have to reconnect my phone to get it to recognize my phone, but that’s not a huge deal.
I’m running just the four door speakers. I deleted all the other speakers, including the sub. I needed that space anyway. Since my factory amp was blown, I just took it out and I’m using the headunit only to power the speakers. It sounds good to me. It’s not going to win any awards, but I am not building the truck with the audiophile in mind anyway. It’s defin capable of much more than I’m currently asking of it.
The lift is indeed OME. Very original, I know haha. Another Mud member was selling a NIB setup that happened to fit my needs perfectly, so I jumped at the opportunity to take advantage of the discount.
I’m running OME 2850 heavy springs in the front and OME 2864 extra heavy springs in the rear.

CaptClose, great job on the install I like the way the compressor goes in there and the plugs on the other side. I will be looking at you’re post when I do mine. And I am ready with my second battery and have everything relocated and the battery box put in place so again great job.

Added some rear lighting a few weeks back.
Don’t cringe. I painted the bare metal and put a tight fitting grommet in the hole.
Also got my fridge and sleeping mat all test fitted for the Solid Axle Summit in Colorado this year. I’m finally giving up the ground tent.
Just waiting for my fridge slide to come in and I’ll get that secured to the drawers.
