I'm really digging the tundra steelies. Do you just find them usedPut the big tires on. Toyo MT in LT295/70/18 on Tundra Steelies. So far, no rub but I haven't flexed on the Mall curbs yet. Also have 1.25 inch Bora spacers for a little poke.

Yeah, I bought a set of 4 silver round hole wheels with no tires for 35 bucks and then had to spring 40 bucks for a single spare wheel that had a brand new tire on it. I painted them all the same color with Duplicolor Graphite wheel paint.
Well I checked my tracking and noticed that my speedo calibration unit arrived and in the mailbox. Thought to myself weird, my youngest daughter bright in the mail today when I got my 2nd row cupholder, so I walked back out to the mailbox and looked in the parcel box and there it was. She forgot that package 
I have tomorrow off so I'll be installing this as well as the sway bar refresh kit

Ordered and received a combination (L&R) set of rear antenna/light mounts from YodaTeq yesterday. The finish of the product is great. I mocked it up and felt that the coax was a bit too 'touchy' on the paint. I'll be ordering a right angle PL259 connector to get it away from the body and avoid paint damage.
Then it was time to get the IM bumper installed. Taking off the stock bumper was pretty easy. The IM bumper mounting is not too hard either, except lining up and keeping the crush tube standing while working on a slanted driveway 
Got distracted with work work and some other things. So, I couldn't finish up last night. Should be able to get this aligned and finished up today. I will be retaining the factory recovery points for now and at a later time, I might switch over to something more 'beefier'. Found some small areas of surface rust behind the bumper. So, cleaned them up and sprayed some engine enamel paint that I had laying around. While I was going slow with this, there was an unfortunate casualty with the trim piece in between the headlights

Who sells this? I imagine going from a 31 inch tire to a 34.5 inch tire has mine off just a little.Well I checked my tracking and noticed that my speedo calibration unit arrived and in the mailbox.

I found it. The Lutz-Box. Looks really simple as it plugs in-line.

just did the install super simple here's the video I did of the install.
I have the Yellr box and it took me 20 minutes to install and calibrate.
This one looks good too.

the yellow box one has dipswitches right?
I wish... that's like 5 minutes to install. LOL
I had to do math for the one I have.
But it was very easy to figure out.
Nah, same as the Lutz. Buttons for +/- 0.5% IIRC. Same plug and play operation.

This, the Yellow Box cable is long enough so that it can be hidden in the cabin of the car.

Continued the endless pursuit for the perfect interior layout that allows me to carry offroad gear, my spare, emergency supplies, and still have space for workhorse stuff. Part of me is very tempted to rip out carpeting and spray in bedliner, but i know it’ll be super loud, poorly insulated, and will probably reek for a while. Some day though maybe.
I also started designing a platform deck in CAD that fits on the driver’s side in the rear to function as storage / sleeping, but more on that if I make progress with it.
This has been a super fun truck so far. Hit the jackpot and inherited it from my grandma as my first vehicle, and it’s been a fun one to mess around with so far.

I worked out of my 100 as a carpenter for almost 6 months while I saved to buy a truck, this picture is all too familiar haha, I found it wasn't too bad of a vehicle once I put the roof platform on
