    Thanks man! I really appreciate that. I definitely took some time on this setup.. Getting measurements of the bar, talking to @zscott who gave me some good info, making the mounts, etc. I knew what I wanted and it was definitely some work.. But glad I did it and couldnt be happier with the results. So thanks again buddy. :cheers:

    Oh.. And ZERO hood or windshield glare. ;)

    I think it has to do with the tires. I have general grabber at2s, and the tread is pretty aggressive, with a really deep tread. My buddy got these tires for his xterra in the same size and stock, and rubber afterwards solely due to the aggressive tread.

    Replaced both of my LCA's today with stock replacements. I was a victim of the seized bolts in the bushing syndrome. I don't know why Toyota didn't either grease them from the factory or place a plastic sleeve in there. Took about 4 hours total and about 10 sawzall blades to get them cut out and replaced.

    Besides the bushing issue both my lower ball joints were shot anyway so I'd say it was a good thing to do.

    Swapped the OEM front flaps for Husky flaps. No more tire rub from what I can tell so far.

    Installed PRO headlights today. Now have originals up for sale. Pic doesn't do justice for this subtle change of color.
