    Yeah. No hard feelings against them. They're growing so quickly. I just don't have enough hours in my day right now to be chasing all sorts of companies around. I need to pick my battles.

    As far as the ARB compressors are concerned... Thanks to @Pcyc , I currently have one in my possession that I'll be working with. Im focusing on trying to find a clean mounting solution for the 2nd and 3rd Gen Tacos. I'll definitely let everyone know when I find it.

    Hmmm. Im wondering which bracket you're referring to. The firewall side of the tray shouldn't mount to anything. The 3rd Gen tray mounts with two nuts on the bottom and two screws on the fender side. The additional bracket on the tray is used to relocate the fuel resistor on the 2nd Gen Tacomas and the horn assembly on the 3rd Gens.

    Ah. Ic. Thanks. My fault. Just got my truck last night and didn't realize that was for the horn. Will give it a try again later this week.

    Its all good. You had me worried that something had changed! Its my fault for not having directions yet. Im thinking of just making a few short videos for the installation of all my products. Until then, I really encourage folks to call, text, PM, or email me anytime. Im always on standby!

    I am interested in a mount for ARB dual compressor. This is what I am working with and will be even tighter when I put your dual drivers side kit in. Others have told me to put it into rear quarter panel but I prefer the engine bay.

    Gone are the days when you could crawl inside the engine compartment and work on the engine or easily reach things.

    I feel your pain Demetri. I will be working on a mount very soon. No promises to anyone that I can make it work... but I'll give it my best.

    Let me just say that Matt spent about an hour with me on the phone a few weeks ago (on a Sunday) after I called with questions regarding a custom setup for my Tacoma. He was knowledgable, kind, and took the time to help me figure out what would work best for me. All that and he didn't even sell me anything. In contrast, I spent 5 minutes on the phone with Armor Tech Off-road and couldn't be more frustrated. The guy answering the phone had zero technical knowledge, kept deferring questions to his coworker while on the phone with me, and wouldn't even let me order and test fit their product without waiving the 15% restocking fee. Matt, you may not have sold me anything the other day, but you have made a future loyal customer. Thanks for setting the bar a little higher, and more importantly, thank you for public safety service.

    Kit arrived today! Did not have time to take it out of the box yet. Just a peek inside. I am going to try to drop it off for powder coat tomorrow. With any luck they will be running a black project and it can be thrown in for a quick turn around.

    Not so lucky this time. I am looking at up to two weeks on the powder coat. If they have a project they can throw it in with, it will be sooner. Last time I had it done overnight!
    Had to get coated though.
    Timing will be better for the install anyway.

    I have to figure out a mounting solution for that jumbo Powerpole plug!

    Very nice. Id like to see pics of it powdercoated and installed. Sorry about the power pole plug. I hooked you up with the biggest one they make. It's rated for 350 Amps. You said you'd be hooking up a winch through it and I wanted to make sure it could handle the draw.

    Nothing wrong with it. Just a little bigger than I was expecting. I would rather have a little overkill than not enough.
