    eh I think it would be worth you time to run at least some tube just under the rocker panel. Doesn't have to poke out really with wings like some do or kick outs. Just put a single tube under there. It really is a vital recovery point and you will ruin your doors with just a ding.

    If I did, I would run them tight enough they’re useless for recovery. Here’s what I did on my 4runner

    Started to paint and bed line the skids today. Also decided to bail on the Hi-Lift event at a state run offroad trails park since I got offered to do some manual labor for $15/hour plus beer and pizza. I need the money and the place will be a mud hole by Saturday because of all the rain we have coming. Might take Friday to go down to southern Indiana and stop by the last fire tower in Hoosier National Forest

    I missed one tiny hose in the very back when reassembling and it made the truck run like garbage. Took me over 2 hours to finally realize that the hose back there wasn't hooked up.

    Also some pics of a caravan of Hispanics with a auction vehicles in tow. Poor Tacoma is getting parted or rebuilt and sold. Front right side was all smashed in.

    Then I saw this Jeep and had a good laugh, reads “You get it or you don’t” and yes he was cruising down the highway on the shoulder like that whatever reason

    What a shame. Pre-2001 Chrome mirrors, so it has the Limited/SR5 trim level. That's a decked out truck.

    How is it attached to the van?

    I have to insure it anyway to legally transfer the Vermont registration and turn it into a California title.

    Same truck I have but in white for the most part.

    I hate the chrome mirrors on my truck. It’s attached using one of those set ups you’d find behind a motorhome.
