    I need to replace my brakes soon, too. Any suggestions from what you've come across so far?

    Added bed lights, and switched a relay for switched ground, Then I hooked them up to the Dome light circuit so they would fade in and out when opening the door/locking the doors. I did have to put a rectifier diode in so that when I flipped the switch in the bed it wouldn't turn on the dome lights.

    Hey I appreciate your opinion, Everyone who has saw the truck has liked it. It actually sets higher than the pictures make it out to be. Personally I can't stand skinny tires on a lifted truck, which alot of people on here have. I will say this though most of the time if I feel a truck doesn't look good I keep my opinion to myself, and don't bash others rides.

    Got the truck detailed today to get the majority of the pinstripes out before trading it in. I tell you, a professional detailer can work some magic! This truck looks AWESOME. Going to make the next person very happy.

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    I wasn't trying to bash your truck at all. My main point was to try and let you know (if you didn't already) that you were putting much more stress that was necessary on your bearings. Besides my own opinion your truck would not be legal in a lot of states (don't know about yours) because your tires stick out way past the fenders. I understand that's what your shooting for here but there is a reason for this. It's so that your don't cause unnecessary spray while driving in the rain. Not saying having it that way is illegal for you (again I don't know your local laws) but it is very inconsiderate to others behind you, much like having HID's in a regular headlight housing is inconsiderate to oncoming traffic.

    Look man I didn't do it to be inconsiderate. It's perfectly legal where I'm at, trucks around here their wheels stick out farther than mine. Personally I don't think that we will ever get together on this so I think it's probably best if we just let it go. I wasn't trying to be a dick, by the combination that I think looks good. I'm fully aware of the added stress on the bearings and other components being this is not the first truck that I have put a lift and tires and wheels on. Sorry if you don't like it, it's not yours it's mine. Anyway have a great day

    Took off the 5" tube Steps and replaced with the N-fab... I think it matches up better with the Avid bumper guard.
