    You have ditch lights right make a bracket to house 2 pods and get 2 different beam patterns. Also get some better fogs like the KC g4s or rigids. You could also make some brakets to house a small light bar in the lower grille area of the bumper. I think those things hanging off the front are hideous. Look cool on like a rally car the way they do their front end but these just look like an after thought.

    I don't think it looks bad at all. However, you're wanting to get a locker and get into more wheeling so I'd save your buckaroonies for something more fitting up front. A low pro winch mount would be great on your truck. Similar to @ilubtimmyhos (he's also an MGM DCSB prerunner)

    Self recovery for the prerunnah is a definite must.

    100% agreed. That and maximizing traction. That includes a couple things though like tires, locker and suspension flex in the back.

    Yeah I could probably get two lights on each side because the SOS brackets have two different holes on each bracket.

    Upgraded caliraised dogs are on my list.

    Followed @ilubtimmyhos on insta the other day. His truck is what my list is headed towards. He makes it work with what he has and gives me inspiration!

    I have been looking at some Federal Couragia MTs in a 285. Better priced tire and seems to have great reviews for our trucks. And they are a little cheaper so I’d have extra money to put towards a locker. Then just Dakars and B110s and I’ll be set.

    Edit: then some sort of winch setup. Whether that’s a streamline bumper or front winch mount.

    I’m gonna take him out to rausch or aoaa soon to put his truck through the ringer. He wants to push it and see what it can do.

    More skinny pedal also if you are only an SR5 the ebrake on one click will help with proportioning the rear wheels to act together if one starts to spin. DON'T ride the e-brake the whole time. If you are a sport a little regular brake will help

    Yeah so you have the LSD just use a little brake bias if you start to get some spin. You'll have to 2 foot it gas and brake.

    @BravesTaco95 went and looked at the plano sportsman boxes not as tall as I was hoping. Going to try and dig one out of my garage I've had for like 20 yrs and see if it'll work.

    Yeah if you're looking more for a tool trunk then I'd just look into something from like tractor supply.
