    I was on the fence between F5s and Stealth 6s.

    Like firmly on the fence. It was balls deep until I went with 6s.

    Half the time I feel happy and half the time I'm like "ah, maybe I'll trade or sell for F5s."

    I love them all. Maybe I'll have one different @SCSPerformance wheel for each hub.

    I've had both and it really depends on the vehicle. 3rd gen 4runner's look great with the no cap on F5's but I like the complete look of the 6's for nicer newer trucks like 5th gens.i think you'll be great with 6's.

    I washed all the dirt off my 4Runner after last weeks Joshua Tree run and noticed I bashed up my stock front skid plate for the third time.

    I ordered a RCI steel front skid plate. The stock one is just too thin. Their filler plate is aluminum and only meant for a stock bumper so I will make my own from steel plate to fit between it and my Stingray bumper.

    Got a 100 dollar Amazon gc from work. What should I buy for the truck? Was thinking a trasharoo and a camelbak.

    Trasharoo is cool but ends up looking like a saggy nutsack on your rig after a while in my opinion. I got the joey pack for my tire and dig it. Mainly throw my spent brass after shooting and some tools in it but it holds trash well too.Screenshot_20170326-110438.jpg Screenshot_20170326-110445.jpg

    The one I'm looking at isn't a real camelbak but it's got great reviews. I have costco's version of a camel back and really like it for music festivals and stuff like that, but the reservoir leaks. I looked to buy a camelbak reservoir or any replacement and for like 10 bucks extra I can get a new pack. I'm gonna get a slightly larger one for hiking so I can pack a lunch.

    Nice. I want to be able to keep a weekends worth of trash in it though. Carrying out food waste or other smelly trash after a weekend trip inside the truck is a no go for me.

    Since my new springs came and I'm selling the old ones to @T4RFTMFW, I realized that I have no clue where the springs that were on the truck when I bought it went. I don't know if I sold them or what.

    I know some dude that was there took plenty of pictures and videos. Stock suspension on the 100 series was awesome. At one point felt like I was going to tip over but this hog made it through some tough terrain out there. Hoping this guy has the video of it. I want skids/sliders asap and tires even though they weren't too shabby.

    Alfuh is the dude that has the fiberglass fenders and bedsides. It was a couple dudes that were in an older yota that had their go pro.

    Ah, gotcha. Typically Chris is taking a bunch of pictures and editing them so that's who I assumed you were talking about.
