a new chapter begins... the road to 400k

Another words ...you're building a truck one piece at a time. Cost 100 times less just to purchase a new one....and way easier.
 
Yeah, I just wish he would stop taking pics of road signs while driving, especially in traffic. There has to many scenic places to drive to, to take those shots rather than traffic, and road signs.

You probably paid at least $2 for that bolt, and washer saying toyota on it, when you could have got the same ones at a hardware store for a fraction of it.
 
1.25ish each
not weeping over fraction of a dollar here on 4 bolts, that would just be dumb (weeping over +100s of dollars is valid)
time involved finding the proper bolt was negligible... searching the bins at some corner store makes me nauseous time involved wasting my time and just ain't worth the hassle if its readily available on a parts diagram complete with part #s guaranteed to fit like a glove :)
 
Bolts are easy to match up. I've bought way better quality bolts, and for less from these hardware stores than those cheap bolts toyota supplies, that start rusting as soon as their tight.

I still have the original Firestone all season ones on my truck. Truck never disappoints even with the stock tires.
