    They are everywhere. I feel like i should drive 5 under the speed limit just to please them. There were three hiding in my friends neighborhood and were literally in seeing distance of each other.

    I still don't have my front plate on but they haven't said anything about it.Neither with my lights. Sure they have covers on them...but their see through. :p

    Painted the outside skids they blend in pretty well. Also gave her a nice bath.

    Its actually funny that you post those because I am picking up bedsides from Glassworks tomorrow. Only problem was I read from people on here running the 4" fenders with tundra axles that they were destroying their fenders. So I found a guy that works for Glassworks on DR and he gave me a good price to make some 6" flairs. Thanks for lookin out man :thumbsup:

    Oh and I figure I might as well post this. When I asked Glassworks if I could cut down extra cab fenders to match, they said the body lines would not line up with the stock bed rails. This is because supposedly the beds on double cabs have a different depth than extra cabs. He said the only way that cut down bedsides would work is if I was not planning on running my bed.

    alot of metal, small engine, decent travel.
    caged, camburg long travel, 50t leafpack (soon to be installed) light rack over cab, 5pt harnesses etc
    nice truck, nice work on it. im liking it.

    and i dont know the pros/cons but i know when running the coilovers straight off the rear axel its considered stadium style links? im thinking that it would create less body roll maybe? but this style links will also not produce as much travel..

    any reasoning for going with the coilovers directly mounted to the axel besides people dont normally do it?

    Well since it is a double cab, running traditiional style links mounting them off the trailing arm would put the coilovers inside the cab. Not sure if the body roll is any less but you are right it does not yield as much travel. On the other hand, I was told that if it is set up correctly you can still pull about 20" which would be enough. Plus coilover travel is much smoother than leaf sprung for about the same price. Also been talking about doing a cantilever or maybe even a mezzanine set up haha. Also still havent thrown out the idea of just throwing a 64 kit on it. The rear is still in the deciding stage while i save my money. Broke as a joke after buying my bedsides haha.
