    LA is a big area. You need to be more specific as to where in LA.

    With that said I had my Pelfreybilt HC Rear Bumper powder coated @ http://www.crisolmetalfinishing.com/ in Gardena

    My third ( thats 3 ) time taking my Prinsu cabrac apart for a leak. Glad I haven't put my headliner back in yet. Wanna know how I keep finding the leak ? My seat belt is soaked each time. So I disassembled that side scraped clean and reinstalled again. PITA !!!! Oh, still gotta go for the suture follow up tomorrow. Found out they stapled my buddies gash, ouch .

    See the badge in the grill? Yes, its front facing. I'm using logistics91's kit for a 2014 w/entune. The camera itself has a video cable and power/ground that both run back into the cab through the main grommet. From there the wires run over the top of the instrument cluster to join the rest of the harnes kit and switches. There's been a bit of drama lately around this kit having to do with who has what rights to sell it so for the time being it's not available from him. If you can get the kit again at some point it will include all the pictures and directions you could want plus JJ has been great about answering questions. It all seems silly since its based on information shared on a forum with no patents but drama is how things are done now. My build thread will include any portions of this mod where I sidestepped the instructions.

    So here's an option raised to me by an off-roading buddy:

    The thing is, as bad as this is outside, inside that diff only has 15000 miles on it. As I'm looking around today, anything I get from a junkyard has easily 10x that, or more. Soooo.

    Wondering if I can get a buddy to weld up two of these, and call it a day:

    https://eastcoastgearsupply.com/i-133572-toyota-lower-shock-mount.html

    I know for you off-road guys this seems like a "duh" situation, but bear with me - I'm new to all of this. Again, the only "broken" part on this are the shock mounts.
