    I installed the TRD exhaust last night. The installation itself is very straightforward, and they're several good write ups on TW for reference. However, for me it was a little awkward maneuvering the exhausts over the axle. So I just jacked the left rear up slightly to give me a little more room, and it was a piece of cake after that. I like the way it sounds, but I'm definitely hanging on to my stock setup just in case I ever get tired of it...

    Great work! Did you DIY or have a shop spray on the liner? Also, which liner brand did you use?

    Can you give some more details on this? I've never really been interested in installing one until recently.

    Finished up my DIY rack system this morning. Made some adjustments, shimmed the front to level it out and moved the rear rack forward to lessen the gap in between the two. I think I'm done with this for now.

    Too few to list.
    That is actually an older picture from my 2011 just showing where I mounted it. I have the new MX on my 2015. The Ultragauge just shows you more details of how your truck is doing. It's an OBDII scanner that is plugged in all the time. I mainly use it to watch my temps when I tow (MX shows trans temp).

    Yep, they're pretty low, but they don't cross over the properly until they get past the house. There's a pole between our house and the neighbors that it connects to first then goes to the house. Definitely a strange setup.

    I have one of these sitting in my garage, went to replace my factory hitch and realized the rear bumper brackets are integrated into the receiver hitch. Brackets should get here today, hope to get it all on my truck in the next week or so. I honestly never tow anything but I just got my frame replaced and the hitch was a rusty mess so I figured I'd replace it.

    It has a bunch of gauges that monitor how your truck is running. MPG, trans temp, air intake temp, oil temp (I think), there's quite a few to chose from.

    Went to a local offroad shop (it was Jeep Masters... shhhh!!) to have them grind out the plate on my sliders so I could use the original bolt at the cross member. Way less sexy than most of the other mods here.
