Did some small stuff to stay busy. Mostly buying this week and installing next week.

-Bought H3R Performance Extinguisher and brackets for install on passenger side footwell.
-Bought a couple soft shackles.
-Bought a Factor 55 Hictchlink 2.0.
-Oil change & 5 tire rotation.
-Fresh Wax job.

Looking forward to getting my hands on a rear hatch interior light and maybe an engine bay light.

Did you get the H3R universal seat bracket? I’m curious as to how these fit on the LC.

I used this build as a reason to buy it. It mounted up well. I'll update once I install mine.
New filter every oil change for me.

I've received lots of parts over the past week. I didn't take enough photos, but here's a couple of the H3R fire extinguisher mounting plate and final install.

Oh and slee skids and Nitto ridge grapplers. I feel like I’ve forgot a few things too lol, they’ll have it for two weeks.
 
which airbags are these? Slee advises against airbags. I can see why if they are the styl I had on my old tundra where they attach top and bottom and could limit suspension travel when offroading. These you have don't appear to be attached. I'd kinda like some for occasional towing, but the 200 rides so nice I'm heistant.
They are the basic firestone bags. They sit inside the coil, not attached to anything. The air plumbing runs up through the top of the sping. In theory, they should limit travel. I on the other hand have never noticed and if they do, its negligable. I was originally going to remove them becasue the tourflex springs do such a great job of keeping my rear up when towing our opus. We just sold the Opus and moved on to a larger TT with a more sunstatial tounge weight. I will be leaving them in to see if ill need them.

Your supposed to keep them at 5psi to limit any potential damage when not loaded. To be honest, when I'm not loaded I take out the valve stem cores and run them at zero. I have never had an issue like this and im confident they dont limit any articulation. I could see the plumbing failing before the actual bag is damaged on them. Also, they are really easy to install/replace, not too hard on the wallet and the benefits when towing validate the risk for me.

Did you install them yourself? If so, how was the install?
 
Modifying a hitch swingout carrier that tucks up closer and tighter. Not liking the style or fitment of any turn key options, so homebrewing.

Any particular reason you're using super?
Only that it makes me feel better pulling the trailer. just another one of my expensive habits!
 
Dear god, did you get gas or gold? As a Southerner the cost y’all pay for fuel is mind blowing.
Thanks for pointing that out! And that was at my commercial refuel place. A deal believe it or not. We were up Northern CA coast recently. California/Oregon border was defined by $1 plus per gal difference. Just opened DMV registration renewals on a couple 15 year old work trucks.. pushing $500 each & INCREASING from previous years.. and smog checks. California Dream..
