    I have treadwrights in my truck. And can’t say anything bad. Towed my wife’s car across country, truck and car fully load. Everyone talks shit because they are uneducated on them. Great tires and I would buy them again. I did the 10 plys the only thing did not realize just how heavy 65lbs per tire was going to be. I did 285/75r16

    I am flare-less both front and rear right now. Took them off because of the rubbing and broken attachment points on the flares themselves.

    Will eventually go with bushwhackers modified so they actually bolt on.

    They are good. Done rocks to beach sand on my set. Put them down to 15 psi on the beach and didn’t get stuck. There was 15 of us and me and 3 others are the only ones that drove straight through.

    I know I am an old OLD FART, but I don't get them finger grip hole things in the door edge. And what are tube doors for ? Not knocking it cause I just have no clue.

    I’d like to do the same exact thing to my 2nd gen and this is practically all I could find on keeping that stock radio bezel. Could you please explain how you went about blacking this out? Thanks

    Swapped my OEM fog lights to some yellow lense fogs, not quite happy with the quality of the product though. Any one know if someone on here sells precut yellow tint? Or recommend a decent brand for the swap?

    Today I traded my '09 DCSB Prerunner for a 2012 infinity M37--since having a stroke in January I have been having increasing difficulty climbing in and out of it, had to get something lower to the ground...

    I actually chose to go with the Hi-Rise shell.

    The Snugtop after tax was $756. Being the wrong color, it’s at least another $300 to get it painted. Just couldn’t make it a good deal ):

    I’m ultimately going to have two shells - One for my daily life (the hi rise), and a cab-high one for offroad with my tent & awning.

    The tube doors are for increased visibility off road. @EatSleepTacos off roads quite a bit and his truck isn’t his daily driver. When your off road climbing over obstacles they let you look out and monitor how close you are to things much better.

    Got new tires Tuesday and installed my SOS Sliders last night! Thanks @boogie3478 for the inspiration to check out SOS products. Was reading your build and decided to check them out25FA974A-A86B-4BC9-B6A7-E5E0D7B6666B.jpg

    Yeah, what Chris said! It’s not my dd and while off-road it provides awesome visibility. That way you can see tire placement when crawling over rocks. Plus it’s just a really fun and unique project to get improve my welding/fabrication skills. I’m going wheeling next weekend and will put them to the test then.
