    I get it but that is the main reason I really don't like CBI's not my style to have that much contrast in the rear bumper. I like the more low profile look that leaving that piece gives. SouthernStyleSpeed makes one that is a full replacement.
    Agreed but no harder than a high clearance for a tacoma. I've done that.

    Apparently CO doesn't direct deposit so I am waiting for a paper check. Once I get that I can start talking to Insain Fab or Flat Iron about a bumper

    Looks cool. Is a tire carrier the only accessory they offer?
    I agree it would look a little weird on white

    They have a dual swing out. I would only go tire and have a ladder on the other side. Mounting gas cans to the roof.

    What if they made one like the one the other Matt posted earlier. The one with a ladder and then a gas can over it

    That is sweet. My girlfriend hates swing outs though so one of the major reasons I'm looking at Relentless is that theirs is easily removed so I can have it when wheeling with a full size spare, but take it off when driving around the city.

    Maybe get one size larger bolt and tap the hole? That way you don't have to mess with the helicoil...

    Sucks dude. Bet someone(dealer) used impact.

    Sorry, I don't get on here some days so my posts may seen irrelevant as its a few pages behind.. Anyways, there was some behind the scenes stuff. T4R never got threatened, though. It's an open forum, we can't control what people say all the time and if it doesn't break any of our guidelines there's no reason to take action. Anyways, the threads were a bad reflection of it's many members and didn't represent T4R well. Gobi never told anyone to the threads down. They apparently asked (not me), but that's not why actions were taken. They likely wanted them gone b/c they got on the forum and started partaking in the topic which didn't end well for them.

    Maybe @dtaco06 was teaching how to Mall Crawl and @ramonortiz55 took it a little too far?

    Hahaha....either way, never would have happened if @ramonortiz55 had tires taller then the curb! His 4Runner looks worst then this truck...but you get the ideal....
