Good to see some suspension upgrades going on with the RIGID truck man. Those bajakits UCA's are BULKY in a good way!
Pulled a 2wd Durango up a muddy hill so they wouldn't be stuck at a remote Northern California beach. Then drove to Russian River Brewery to drink much earned beer with my wife.

Forgot about this thread. These happened in late October. ?
Got my 2018+ @SDHQ OFFROAD light bar mount finished for all of the @Baja Designs lighting! ?
30" Baja Designs OnX6+ and 2 x 10" Baja Designs OnX6+
Here are some pictures that Joey over at @SDHQ OFFROAD sent me! Shit's dirty under there!
Also ordered a CBI aluminum front bumper and a CBI high clearance rear bumper because of this. Still waiting...
Goin in the shop next week for the SDHQ dual battery setup.

SEAT HEIGHT MOD
Like many others, I don't find the seating position to be comfortable. I'm young and in decent shape, but my lower back would hurt after long trips... (Not a problem I experienced in my '04 Dodge 2500 even with a crappy seat) I'm 6'0 and my legs are just too dang long to deal with a seat that low. No support on my thighs/hips. I could slide all the way back, but then barely reach the steering wheel, lol.
I found someone selling seat spacers... but I decided I didn't want to wait, so I went the ghetto route and stacked five 3/16" spacers underneath the rear seat rail bolts (You have to get longer ones). All in all, it cost me around $10 and 5 minutes of "labor", lol. It made a world of a difference and I'm much more eager to take my truck on road trips now! No more back pain.
After living with this setup for a few thousand miles I think I may even add one or two more spacers for a slight height increase.
Hope this helps someone!

"Long story short" I call bullshit and this is not safe at all!
NO, NO, NO, DO NOT DO IT... I saw this on TW last week and just about fell off my chair at work laughing. I actually thought it was a joke at first. Some retard is trying to sell these kits in the 3rd gen forums with what looks to be grade 2 bolts. Although common sense is not very common over there, grade 2 bolts + a longer bolt length = very bad things happening in any sort of bad accident. From the way your post reads, it sounds like you're the one trying to peddle this bullshit, but I'm certainly not going to go back and search for it.

I realize it’s not as safe, but I’m not too worried about it. Guess I’m just young and dumb
.... (and really don’t like the daily back pain associated with the seating position for me).And no, I’m not selling those spacers lol.
Current status: sliders FINALLY off for paint, hidden winch mount temporarily off for modification to make it more flush/hidden, full underbody rinse and rust protection, tent and @KB Voodoo Fabrications bars off bed for a while, cutting rear to prep for @Relentless Fabrication bumper coming in a few weeks, gonna try to repair/rust proof dents and paint, OVTune ordered for that sweet 1.05 update, gonna finally do a good detailing on the interior, and Black Rhino beadlocks and 35s to come!

A gentleman on Tacoma World he goes by cboy808. Can customize about anything you want. Very happy with mine.,
Replaced the air filter, fixed a connection issue I was having in my anytime rear camera setup, trimmed my bed mat to fit better with my bed stiffeners, and took some photos of stuff for a few different people.
You are gonna absolutely love those seat covers!
Hell yes. I'm still at about 70 miles on mine. I have likes and dislikes with it but I'm still waiting on judging it.
Also, went downstairs to a flat tire this morning.
So that was fun. Figured out it was bleeding air from the connection at the bead and the tire. Only thing I can think of that caused it was tiny kiss of the curb yesterday. Honestly though I find it really hard to believe that's what did it, so I have no idea.
Also my spare was filthy. This picture is after I rinsed it off.
