    Yup, 2.75" Dakars. Pics and a second round of measurements to come.I would guess I got 3" originally due to having skids and sliders and a topper and weighing down the oem suspension.

    So it's a special muffler that goes on their catback systems? Do they not sell it separately?

    I would, but its not that easy. It's more like a trial and error thing. If you want it to look clean, buy a template. If you want it to cover ALL the gaps... do what I did. line it up, cut little by little with it in place, put clips in as you go. be careful while cutting! brake lines don't like exacto knives. the rubber can be cut partially through then pulled apart fairly easily.

    here's the rubber you need to do BOTH sides (just cut it in half):

    That's unfortunate. Looks like he's from southern California.

    ...surely the prerunner badge that's still on there gives it away.

    The quick releases are:

    Sunlite QR Bike Block Fork Mount
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AO7GRG?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00

    $11.99 - They seem really durable too.

    The hardware was just:
    - (4) 1/4 x 1.25" galvanized bolts
    - (8) 1/4 galvanized washers
    - (4) 5/16 galvanized washers
    - (4) those nuts that have the vibration reducing material in the middle... don't know the specific name.
