    That's a pretty good video. I am betting in the FSM they call that clamp out as non-reusable.

    If the OTR doesn't come loose from the knuckle by peaning the hell out of the knuckle like the video shows try a pitman arm remover. If you do go this route you may have to trim the tabs back on each side for clearance. Using one works pretty slick on the OTR if hitting with a hammer while applying pressure. A pickle fork works almost as well if you aren't worried about destroying the boot. If you watch close there is some footage cut out of the video. I am assuming the footage of the stuggle was cut out as the knuckle goes from rusty to peaned flat haha. Compare 3:44 to 3:45. I think more BFH work was done between 3:54 and 3:55 as the frame changes. :D All I am trying to say is it doesn't always go as easy they make it look and don't get frustrated!

    Ha yeah I'm sure It'll be a pain in the ass. However, I'm hoping I can get to everything out easy if I can disconnect the knuckle from the vehicle and access everything else real easy

    I wonder if the 1st gen in the 1st link is a real TRD. The decals look like they are not in the factory location. I can't make out the RR DIFF LOCK button either because the stalks are in the way.

    Actually If someone welded bars across the side for accessories and the rtt would fit in between it could work, Plus have a spot for more lights up front lol. I wonder if it ties into the bed though

    It only took me 2 months to become the engineering manager at work. At this rate I should be the CEO by the end of the year. Lol. I like it here.

    Thanks. That's my plan. Renters have to pay a ton up here. I can easily get $750 a month, which is pretty much my payment.

    Avf is meh. Not for setups like mine. It is very very similar to the cliffs just a bunch of guys in v8 swapped SAS trucks ripping around in the woods.
