    Sounds like something my OCD self would require. Are the cases easily removable? I'm thinking of mounting mine in a similar fashion but keeping them unlocked so no curious crack head ruins my rack/truck trying to inspect the contents.

    Nah unfortunately they were such a pain that I won't be taking them off anytime soon and never really found any QD attachments that I liked. It will take more then some crackhead to take off with these. Oddly enough their really isn't much if any wind noise even at 80. I mounted them back further so I could access them while standing in the rear door and also to help mitigate wind noise.

    Thanks man both were Line-X and came out great along with the CabRac with the TRD emblem and the back bumper, sliders too when they get here... I hate posting pics of unfinished work but its close now and really only has a bunch of minor details to complete, Headlight, Tails, frame trim, hood struts, LED accent interior, all need to be installed. I did just finished up my aux panel and all the wiring to look clean and factory.

    I sold my factory nerf bars for my truck to a acquaintance that I met. He was the one who bought my 17" factory duratracs and rims off me. I love the look with the higher ground clearance and will be building my new sliders as soon as I can get a hold of a nice manual radius bender. I also tried to mount my cross bars but came up with a very interesting issue with gaps between my bars.. deciding how I want to deal with it today (probably gonna make myself some spacers to cover the gap between the cover and the box.

    I attempted plasti-dipping my emblems and failed miserably. I managed to install my interior LED's with no issue.

    Tomorrow taking the emblems off and will be painting/clear coating.

    I took off the stock mud flaps. I might leave it like this for a while before I install my Rokblokz mud flaps.

    What bumper is that and what grill do you have. What is it coated in? Looks really good.

    Great looking setup! Those gauges are fancy. What fuse size did you use in-between the batteries and the ML ACR?

    Changed oil in the front & rear diffs and transfer case, new spark plugs, new K&N air filter and gave it a bath.
