Finally received my BORA 1.25" spacers Tuesday! Installed them that evening. Wheels and tires going on Saturday. Can't wait!

Needed another USB adapter in the car, saw this pretty slick external TPMS setup. Installed it today and it works pretty well. Nice to have now, since I'm still dialing in the pressures on my new tire setup and these have temp sensors on them as well. We'll see how they hold up over time, but happy so far.

interested to know how long the batteries last in the sensors.
 
They claim 2 years, but we'll see about that.

About 1.5-2 yrs. I've had one battery fail in 1 year, the others ok almost 2 years
 
Got my Sahara bar on. Wanted to paint it to match but I’ll see if I can live with it first.

Installed OME LCA reinforcements

rained and refilled front diff gear oil after completing the break in period for new R&P.

Discovered that the new axle seal I installed when I put the diff back is leaking....arrrgh. New one will be waiting for me at the dealer tomorrow.

Tossed in some brighter LEDs for the low beams and re-aimed the light pattern, installed a dual port QC USB + voltage readout in the cig lighter location, moved my mic for the stereo phone to the cluster, and replaced the bulb in the cluster which tells you the lights are on. I am now sick of pulling the cluster to replace blown out bulbs.

Following this forum is a little dangerous especially when you have magpie genes. Just this minute jumped on Amazon to get one of these tyre pressure monitors. With tyre pressure, temperature, battery voltage a spare USB port it ticks lots of boxes. Reassuring that other forum members have endorsed the product

I've have a near identical "Tymate" branded version, sitting on my bench, but I haven't made it past the mental hurdle, of screwing on something that intentionally disables the schrader valve, yet.
 
Got some Tundra 18" steelies powdercoated a textured matte black and picked up a set of KO2s (275/70s). Pics are with AHC on "high". Need some spacers though, the wheels still stick in a little from a straight on view from the front.

That crossed my mind as well, but I figure if it causes a leak, at least it will let me know before it’s flat, haha
