I'm thinking about removing the lights in the running boards and attaching them to the frame somehow, so I can still enjoy the lighting effect. Has anyone done this yet?
I've seen aftermarket solutions, but not reusing the existing LX lights.

My brother hooked up a relay to the existing connector and some off road lights under his GX.

Check out @Ramathorn15 's Owl Expedition rock light mounts. They're designed to do exactly what you're asking.
I forgot about those! Just ordered a set, thanks!
New Michelin LTX Force and an OEM tire cover. I didn't like the loose elastic fit so put my old chrome cover over it. Not sure if I'll keep it or just run with OEM tire and wheel cap without cover. Will get pictures of the new tires Friday in the sand.
New shoes went on...
While I had the wheels off to replace my brake lines I decided to paint the wheels. I like the change to black, but I’ll see how it holds up over time!
Topped off the tank and noticed strong gas smell when I reached home. Quick look underneath revealed the metal gas filler pipe must have developed a pin-hole!
Time to run the gas down and get replacing this pipe:

Finally changed the stock radio out, the volume knob has not worked since I bought the vehicle and no aux plug or bluetooth, so finally installed a nice pioneer head unit which does all I need.
Just replaced mine a few months ago PIA. Not sure if you finished the job yet, but in case you haven't here are some tips for removing and reinstalling the filler neck. Remove the lower nut and washer from the last 4 body mounts on each side and slide the filler neck over the tire in a angle. See pic. It may take a few tries but in the end it comes out easy.
I haven't even started yet! Thanks for the tip. Were there any other parts you replaced besides the metal pipe and the 2 rubber hoses?
I replaced the entire fuel tank and all the components that come along with it, the skid plate and the fuel filter. All OEM parts.

How was the install?
Overall cost?
Super easy, I think it took maybe 5 minutes. Just have to pull a single 10mm bolt and use a trim removal tool to pop all the fasteners loose.

Thanks for the pictures, they are super helpful. I am hoping to not have to drop the tank, how was the access to the rubber hose clamps on the tank side?
You shouldn't have any problems getting to them. I think from factory they install them face up before they put the gas tank up so it is easier to just cut them and install new once.
