    Thank you, and nice! I looked into McNeils originally but I guess I kept trying during "race season" so since I was a joe schmo my business wasnt good enough for them which pissed me off so I will never buy anything from them. Then fiberworx never picked up the phone either. I came across hannemann and the guy was AWESOME with customer service, quality, and price. I wouldnt change a thing.

    Ya ive herd really bad things about glass works .. Long waits n bad service, but thats from company service not dealers, had a dude named austin from vegas dezert fab hook me up ! Mcneils what he recommended due to what you were saying, but dealing with him was awesome and easy! Cant wait ! I originally wanted glass works but the quoted wait was crazy. So fuckit and im supporting a local shop. to me doesnt get anybetter!

    Adjusted my RCI transmission skid plate as it was rubbing the exhaust pipe. Added washers to shim it down further. Unfortunately I had to overlap the skids backwards for now.

    Perhaps this is an excuse to customize the exhaust? True dual? Haha

    Installed my Body Armor steps (not sliders). Went on easy enough. My biggest helper was my Home Depot Homer bucket. Didn't complain a bit.

    Spidertrax!

    A question for those who have installed spacers on their Tacomas...how did you keep the front wheels from spinning to torque the spacers on? I came up with 2 quick solutions...1) put it in 4HI and then start the work (didn't try this) or 2) ask the fiancee to lean on the brake pedal (did this).

    I didn't think of that, but a little Googling after I was done showed this as a common solution. Though I read a lot of "put a screwdriver in the rotor vent". Good to know for other things.

    Not really. Common sense goes a long ways. Hosing off mud before it dries up underneath your truck will work fucking wonders.
