    Some King triples would do. I'd probably pull the motor, build it, and slap a turbo on it. Or LS, T56, Atlas.

    I don't think you can go wrong with either bumper. Get the one that you feel suits your needs best. I hardly ever open the hatch on a daily driving basis, so that wasn't a concern to me at all. My stuff goes in the backseat unless I'm hauling 4 people, or going on a long trip. Just be sure to order all the features you want on it the first go round. I'm still kicking myself for not ordering the camp table on my bumper.

    Savage lets you build as you go, super appealing part. Just not as many options as the 4X. Yet, hopefully.

    Can CV’s cause a rattling sound up front? My inner boots are completely shot and I can shake the CV and it’s makes a bit of noise. Driving me crazy and hopefully picking up some boots this week to redo them.

    Mine were pretty busted and filled with sand and all sorts of shit before I did them and I never had any noise. They boots were torn 360* around too.

    Not really sure what in there would cause noise unless some of the splines are shot

    All the clips on your brake pads still there? I've got tundra brakes and the spring clips on mine broke and the pads made a rattling clanking noise. Not sure how a CV could make that noise unless it's really worn.
