    Gave Casper a bath today. Got all the winter dirt cleaned off. Some Simple Green works wonders on white vehicles. Left the interior alone this go round.

    I used it on all of it. First time I've washed it since last year and had layers of dirt built up. Helps clear up those layers.

    As far as wax, it can I think. But I didn't wax this time. Just wanted to clean it up so get those layers off..next round will be wax.

    How often do you fold up and down your 3rd row? Mine have not done this, but I don't put the seats up and down a ton... maybe once a month?

    Truck looks good. Yea Toytec is not the same business anymore. I'm local to them and R4T and I typically buy from R4T now. Hell even Hugo works at R4T now

    Got the 35s installed. BMC, trimmed plastic up front and will do viper cuts eventually. No pinch weld mod since wife drives 1 miles a day.

    I also removed both sway bars. Drives so smooth now.

    Looks good. Definitely going to have to do pinch weld and cut plastic. She’ll be hitting on any turns at speed or bumps

    Good luck with sudden weight transfer and less traction when the suspension starts to articulate.

    Not a medical dude by any stretch here but I lost a co worker who died while changing the oil on his girlfriends car. So yes get quality equipment for sure and be safe, don’t rush, and double and triple check things.
