    Yeah I've seen it all and been a part of it all myself so I know how fucked it can be here. But ....... Why not just a tool box that locks? That's what I have. Although in the 7 years it's been on my truck it's probably been locked 5 times. Lol

    I don't know how much the bumper will bring you down, but my truck had noticeable bro lean after I installed the 884s and set the truck back down. I gained 2" with no added weight up front. Not sure about the rear shock question tho.

    I'm planning on throwing on a couple skids as well so I think it should be relatively level if not have a little bit of rake.

    Thanks. I'm guessing my pro comp coils had started to sag. The kings are set at 2.5 and sit higher than the pro comp that were suppose to be a 3 inch lift

    Cut & broke off stuff. Prolific ziptie and tape usage.
    So black vehicles really do get a lot hotter than white ones. Especially a Highlander with that huge roof. It's been about a month of hot weather since I sprayed the roof white on it. Definitely made a difference. Usually, we run max A/C with fan on high all the time and still feel warm. I had actually taken in once to be checked out thinking it wasn't working right but was told it's normal. A couple of trips recently at 95+ degrees and actually got the kids cold. I've been able to run the fan on lowest speed and be comfortable. I only sprayed it from the sunroof back and stayed between the cargo rails. Didn't go full on FJ style white roof. Still have all the good looks of a black car with the thermal benefit of a white one. Now that I know how well it works, I wish I had just gone for the paint instead of plastidip.

    If I cut the lip on my camper shell, so it wouldn't cover my rails as much would it cause structural problems? Im thinking of cutting it to where there is no lip at all...
