    You have a camper, this will make you more organized. The things you have now “tied” down to your bed rails will go in there. That’s the job it’s suppose to do. Unless you have so much unnecessary stuff, it can also be used as a sleeping plat form for guys who have campers. PS don’t unlike me I’m just sayin.. :humble:

    I mean... if you don't like it or something and want to sell it or something....

    Yea, I know. I would love one, especially for trips as it would reduce the boxes I have to two drawers, plus give me a solid spot for sleeping just in case.

    Would also allow me to store stuff and organize better overall. So yea, I want one, just can't swing that price right now for it with needing to have $$ for the rear upgrade stuff plus the front end regear and such...

    $400

    What will $400 get you?

    You will receive a 2014 TRD OR front and rear differential in 3.73.

    The good..


    The front diff is completely operational.

    The Bad..

    The rear diff will need new gears. The ring and pinion are missing several teeth




    Ready to ship

    Need some advice guys. I'm going to be working in Lake Charles for at least the next year, if not the next 3 years.

    I am tossing around the idea of finding an apartment or rent house in/near Orange.

    Any recommendations on apartments/neighborhoods? Good areas of town and bad areas of town?

    If anyone is familiar with Lake Charles I could use the same advice.

    Thanks.

    The biggest killer is the traffic on I-10. There is at least one wreck everyday between Beaumont and Lake Charles and you never know where or when it will be. I was looking at living in a 5th wheel in Sulphur during the week and then coming back home to Nederland when I was offered a job in Sulphur just so I wouldn't have to deal with the traffic.
