Basically the A/C drain on the engine bay falls right into the frame causing it to rust over time, the fix is a simple hose and clamps to basically extend the drainage and redirect it.
Rust on Frame with A/C drain mod fix
I noticed a small spot of surface rust forming on the frame and noticed the a/c was draining right onto the frame and causing the issue. Not a big...

The front differential & actuator have raised vent lines to the engine compartment to an elevation of top of shock height.
The transmission - transfer case & actuator have raised vent lines up on the top of the bell housing in the engine compartment.
The rear differential (and actuator if locking diff equipped) stock vent (breather) is mounted on the differential,, it is not raised.
WHY is an unknown,, engineers must have taken lunch early that day,............
it is directly on top of the differential at an elevation of 18" above ground.
If you launch a boat it will probably be under water, an axle high water crossing could cover it..........................
It should have been elevated at least to equal the rest of the breather vent designs,..... you would think.
But hey its an easy job and it cost less than $30 bucks using bought store products.
Most of all it keeps water out of the differential that is on a 4X4 truck,.....
Hey Toyota, your phones ringing...... with a stupid question.

We (Florida) have 150 "specialty plates" you can pick from OR just get the OG with the orange.

I installed the quickfix seat risers from MrProduxn. I gotta say I didn’t think it would be a huge difference but boy am I glad to be wrong. The black magic is amazing on these. Get yourself a pair.
Communication was spot on and shipping didn’t take long at all. Everything came well packaged and secured, install was a breeze and once you install the covers you cannot really tell they are there. Overall, A++++

Installed clear tint on the windshield to block out the brutal Texas summer rays.
I have one in mind that I will reveal once I am able to get it. TOYOTA, TOYODA, TACOMA and TACO are all taken and I even checked MASTACO out of curiosity haha
this is the auction and I have ended up buying several items from them including from their website directly for 14.33 each and they will combine shipping of ordered through Ebay which is less than on their website

put these letters on my glovebox which was so much more of a pain than I expected
yes, I do see the first A needs to be redone
they sent double the lettering needed on the sheet, but some of them did not want to peel off as easily than others which is probably why they provide double

Install is very easy as they are thick they stick out about 1 mm,..... they feel and look very nice (gloss)
I have the raised letters great product UV resistant and MANY colors to choose from.
They cost a bit more but worth it.

thank you, I ran across those AFTER ordering the other lettering which were also super cheap lol
I do like the look of how yours turned out and did have red lettering in my '17 Tacoma glove box lettering when I had gotten it which were probably same as what I have now
very poorly installed, but I didn't change it haha

I thought about getting a auto tailgate lock,
But I would keep checking to see if it locked all the time,.... just to be sure.
Tailgates disappear often and are an easy target. I keep mine locked.
Manual locking means its locked! No need to see if the electric trip did the duty.

it makes me feel better although I feel like anyone who knew a Tacoma they are looking to steal the tailgate on had this feature may know it is just a matter of cutting the wire harnesses
still waiting for my TacoVinyl stuff to come in for some appearance changes
did the OEM bed LED lighting kit today which was really easy - still waiting for the squidlauncher switch that is on backorder

looking forward to getting it done whenever the switch makes it to me - shipping from a company in Florida who said they would be back in the saddle last Thursday due to the hurricane so hoping everyone is okay there
you may have to reload this or search for theaters near you, but definitely going to this
