Installed a couple of the Dodge Sprinter D-rings P/N 5170492AA on the bed cubby bolts:
Put my new emblem on the tailgate with 3M 03614C molding tape:
My replacement LCAs didn't come with the anti-whistle hole plugs, so I had to order them separately, P/N 90950-01990. These have the number "8" molded on the head, same as two plugs in the frame rust spray kit. Each LCA takes 3 plugs, for 6 total. Decided to go OEM despite their cost, because the plugs are in a harsh environment, getting dragged over rocks.

RCV axle shafts P/N CVJIFS-TOY2 came in 5 months after ordering. RCV axles don't include the outer dust seals and axle nuts that normally come with aftermarket CV axles. Outer dust seals are Toyota P/N 90304-A0001. Re-use your axle nuts or get Toyota P/N 90178-28002.
While the LH axle is out, replaced the front diff needle bearing with ECGS bushing P/N T8CS-BUSHING and a new seal Toyota P/N 90311-47027:
Everything installed. The high-angle inboard CV boots avoid the need to do the boot slide mod.

Swapped out the flickering amber strip lights (puddle lights) and made lights bars for each side and mounted green LEDs.

Stuff I've done in the past that were pretty handy. I made a phone mount using a Ram Mount, made a surf board rack so I wouldn't have to use a tailgate pad...had a Dakota tailgate rust out bad from that, and I made a handy net for grocery runs to keep stuff from sliding to the cab.
For the net I used pieces of aluminum bolted to the little door thing screws with I bolts in them to hold my home made net. Works most great. Had the nest in my last truck, glad I kept it when I sold it.
Surfboard pad has a strap with an adjustable buckle to hold the board in place.

I use a utility razor blade to scrape bugs off the glass.

Drove mine a couple blocks today.
After checking my email this morning, I immediately drove my Tacoma a couple blocks to a friends house I had a HK rifle stock shipped to.
Submitted another eForm 1 to make my H&K SP5 into a short barrel rifle. Didn't want the stock to be at my house due to ATF laws on intent to make a SBR without a stamp.
This was the fasted stamp I received out of the 7 I have. I submitted it April 2nd and got approved on the 12th. Ten days is fast for the ATF.
Life is GOOD!

I installed these Truck Knucks tie-down cleats.
