    I like that spot for mounting the antenna but I sometimes need to lay my forward panel all the way back flat on the center and rear panel (when I am loading/unloading for off road trips). Does that base have some sort of quick disconnect? I assume not or people might walk off with your antenna.
    Nice to see another Taco with a diamond back cover. :cheers:

    My Readylift kit came with the relocation bars, but the installer (dealer) said I didn't need them. Not sure if they were right or not.....

    Sweet, thanks for the info. Checked and they are good. I guess I would've noticed that when leaving the dealership.

    Had my dealer throw on a trailer hitch and wiring harness. I had planned on going for the cheaper Uhaul system but I read enough from members here to not trust their wiring or mechanical abilities. The peace of mind is worth the extra bucks for me.

    I've always used dedicated snow tires...so this will be my 1st time with something else. Snow ratings were as good as most snow tires. We'll see.

    If they're anything like the last KOs, they'll to great. Except on straight ice...then, it gets interesting. I had them on a 2wd F150 and managed way better than I thought they would in snow covered hills.

    redriver907 014.jpg redriver907 015.jpg redriver907 016.jpg Today was "I found a UPS package on my porch and it was my Bora wheel spacers" hump day. There are NASCAR teams that don't get all over a 4-tire pit stop like I pulled to get these things on the truck! Not a rub in sight! 265/75/r16 "C rated" Duratracs. Stock TRD Off Road wheels, Toytech boss lift, and now the Bora 1" wheel spacers. 2011 DCSB, TRD Off Road. Sliders next.

    The picture of the front end gives an accurate veiw of how far the tires push out past the fender. The rear picture is a bit wide of straight down the side. It actually doesn't stick out as far as the front end.

    BTW, The 3/4" Bora spacers would have cleared the length of the stock lug studs.
