What did you do with your truck/shop today

Okay you wrench jockies with all of these high miles, what should I have in my tool box? Have most everything + other than a code reader...?

Serious, do all my own work and a bone stock type of guy. That is about the only thing I don't have.

In all seriousness, I don't have many tools in my toolbox. Odds are if something breaks on the road, I won't have that tool with me anyways. I just keep the basics. Small socket set, screwdrivers, crescent wrench or 2, random pliers, 4-way lug wrench and extra oil.

I agree with you completely and carry about the same plus my tools from my day job in my toolbox.

Peeling all the trim crap off my 2015. I left just the bow tie on the gate and added a little 6.2 badge where it used to say LTZ I got from amazon. The door trim itself isn't bad at all to do but the Silverado letters on the doors are awful lol. The glue does not want to cooperate at all from them. I got the passenger done and have the glue to peel in the drivers side now in the morning. I refuse to use those eraser wheels.. I own one and they make a mess of a dark color trucks paint. I am getting the truck fully detailed and polished Monday. .. should look good. Added the black ck162 22's on it too... once debadged next is a lowering kit...

A heat gun works great if you have one.

Just makes it smear and it's actually a lot worse. .. it's no help at all. The closer to a 70 degree ambient or so the better and it comes off mostly as one piece. This isn't my first time doing this... it's just the end that justifies the means lol. This.. detail... lowering... turbo lol.
