    TRD skid would no longer fit with added suspension. Love the look of skid from front so cut it and retro fit it back to front 4 mounting holes. Yea, I know...just for looks.

    Not too many drop bracketed Pro's around. @niccuhles has the only other I know of.
    I'm also in Richmond. Who did your lift?
    6" BDS Stage 2 on my Sport.

    Saw a pic of your truck and it is a beaut! I bought the Pro from a cool group of guys in NC called Wheel City Motors. They also have a wheel, tire and susp shop. I originally had plans to do similar setup on a new loaded Sport. Ended up costing me 1 thousand more to go with used Pro vs new Sport from Toyota Dealer. Mostly because of the difference offered for my trade....substantial. And I have the Pro takeoff parts to sell to boot. There are obvious reasons not to lift a Pro, but for me in this situation it was a no-brainer. I had a few conversations with Davis Offroad here locally. I would have probably went with them if I bought new from the dealer.
