    Help! Tail lights don’t turn on but my brake lights do?

    Yeah I was still under warranty so Toyota fixed it free of charge. They only told me I had a blown fuse but the guy I spoke with couldn’t tell me which fuse it was since he wasn’t the mechanic that worked on it. I checked the fuses that said tail lights but they were fine. Thanks for the help! I...

    Help! Tail lights don’t turn on but my brake lights do?

    When my lights are on, my tail lights are completely off but when I press on the brakes they work. Anyone know what’s going on there? It’s a 2020 TRD off road with OEM lights. Thanks in advance!

    Rear Leaf Suggestions

    Thanks for this awesome breakdown, much appreciated. I ordered front and rear OME BP-51s and I’m going to be pairing them with Deavers U402 stage 3 leaf springs just have to wait a week or two since they’re back ordered. To say I’m excited to stop bottoming out would be a huge understatement.

    I already purchased my set up but I definitely appreciate the offer! If anything happens with my set up I will most definitely keep this in mind!

    OEM leaf springs starting to frown

    Welp.. I changed my mind and I’mgoing to roll with Old Man Emu BP-51’s. I know it’s not quite a “budget” build but I want to make sure I get the right set up. I still plan on pairing these shocks with Deavers leaf springs. I didn’t buy the full kit, I just bought the front and rear shocks...

    Thanks for the feedback buddy I appreciate it. Honestly I was hoping I could get away with using the stock shocks but my suspension guy told me the stock shocks would be maxed out with the Deavers and said I could replace the shocks or use shock expendors. Decided on the bilstein set up mainly...

    Alright fellas now I know it might not be the sexiest set up BUT I think I might roll with this set up and also try to aim for upgrading the front as well! When I say try, I mean try and do the install myself to save some bucks and learn a thing or two in the process. Let me know what you think...

    Thank you! I hope I can afford Kings because if I can get a good deal on Kings with the compression adjusters that’s going to be the way to go! I just have a feeling I’m not going to be able to afford the Kings. Much appreciated!

    Thanks fellas when I get some cash saved up I’m definitely going to go with a swing and relocation kit. For now, I’m really looking for something no more than $250 only because I just dumped a pretty penny on some mods recently haha so I’ll most likely roll with the Wilco flat bed tire mount...

    @Jay Yeah I would definitely roll with the tire gate but I have a back up camera and the bed rail mounts are awesome because of how much room you save but the 33s are taller than my mid height rack and I plan on installing my tent on top of my rack next week.
