*edit* ahh I think you mean the headlights. They are the best lights I've ever had, I had them adjusted at a local trucking shop and they are even better, well worth the $ I paid.

Johnny,
Where'd you get the Toyota tailgate sticker/lettering from? Looks great.
Also, any chance you can mount one of your original rear factory tail lights and show us the brake, reverse, and turn signals for comparison? They look good but would really appreciate a comparison shot. Thanks!

Got my new rear greasable shackles on, what a pita to get those top shackle bolts out. Ordered some Bilstein 5100's, should be about it for now on the suspension.:

They were 2.5" longer than stock from Suspension Connection, about an 1" lift. My old shackles were seized on both sides, the ride is considerably better and quieter. Once I get the bilstein shocks installed it will be about as good as it gets, especially since I dumped the 3" lift blocks for the zuk mod.

ADD --> locking hubs
My gaskets came in for the locking hubs I rebuilt so I got them in, took me just over an hour and a half.
Before:
Tire off/ADD hub:
Dustcap/bolt off:
Hub nuts/Cone washers off:
ADD hub off:
Rebuild lockers, gaskets and painted dial bolts:
Hub base on:
Dial on:
Tire back on:
Back after test drive, everything works great!:
It seems quieter although it's probably in my head, to have my cv joints not spinning for most of the year is a bonus. Thanks Yotatech again for the various threads I used to rebuild the hubs and change these out.

If you lived closer, I'd let you try them. When I put the old one on to compare them, I liked the oem style look better so I put the other oem one in for now.

Clean looking paint still.
Are you planning and swapping out the ADD axle for an older axle? It was pretty easy to do. I had to get rid of it, froze up all winter.
Like the truck. How is the wheeling in your area?
