Mini Update: the truck is still going strong and is treating me good. There is only one ore two minor things that are keeping this from perfect.
1. Running light on my left rear lamp keeps going out (twice) have to check out how everything is wired.
2. Can't find the tailight clips ANYWHERE for sale
3. Need a new driver side seat belt (clasp?) not sure what it's called.
But as said they are very minor things.
The ranchos will firm are starting to soften up and ride a lot better now than before. Wonder if it has to do with breakin / warmer temperatures.
Magnaflow sounds great, oil pressure guage is now working, 4hi and lo work great. Man I'm loving the SR5 features like power windows and locks(right doesn't auto lock) and power mirrors are very nice. Cruise is also a great feature for long drives. All in all very satisfied for my first truck. I only have 4500 in my truck and that's with a lift kit, quality shocks, quality replacement parts, 2 tanks of gas and BRAND new tires and wheels. Only other mod I may need help with is the led interior light mod and maybe a flashlight holder.
Thanks for reading this random update. Sorry I'm not a camera hog!

On the taillight clips (I'm guessing these are the ones the bolt from the tailgate side go to in order to hold the tailight in?) I was / am in need of those but in the mean time I found a cheap reliable fix. Run a zip tie through the tail light and through the bolt hole, cut the "zip" end off another zip tie, run the cut end down the zip tie protruding through the bolt hole and pull it tight. Trim off the excess and your good to go.
Your truck is looking great. I've got bed wheel wheel rust and may go with yoru fender flares vice paying a bodyshop to cut out and repair the rusted spots.

I don't know if you saw the before pictures but my wheel well rust wasn't great but wasn't bad.mif you go with te fender flares I would recommend the bushwackers as a great OE fit flare. I made sure to nutrilize the rust where the flare covered so it didn't spread.
