    Haven't pulled it apart to know what I'll need and getting a bumper from someone who won't be using the plastic bits anymore so might not need any. Just saw the kit while looking for other stuff and thought for 11.63 might be worth it to have as a backup set.

    Everything lined up almost perfectly, only thing I had a slight issue was putting the pins in the top of the grill to hold it in place, due to slight misalignment but they eventually went in.

    I got the vibe after my ~3” lift (King extended travel CO, All Pro expo leaf pack and king rear shocks). Tried the 3° shim from Toytec. I still have my take off vibe. Front steel bumper didn’t change that. Perhaps it’s time to actually measure the drive line angles? Hassle.

    Mine had no vibe (2.5* shim & CB drop) with AAL but started when I swapped to the 96R. Hoping rear bumper weight smooths it out but I’ll throw the 4* if it still happens. Good luck and let us know.

    The black tabs look like artificial rain gutters for Yakamia towers. 1A I think.

    Finally was able to get the garage cleaned out and get some space to work. Installed the TRD Cat-back exhaust I picked up from the TRD sale back in April. Had a bit of trouble with the gasket leaking exhaust, but nothing a quick trip to the store couldn't fix. Looks darned good and I appreciate the deeper sound. Also fancied up the shift knob.
