    Finished up the cmc. Shitty welds, don't judge me. Pics from different sides as I forgot to take pictures of both lol. Also flattened pinch welds but no pics of that.

    Installed my new diode dynamics sport ss3 fog lights. They’re SAE compliant, so Road legal. Damn they have a great output.

    Are you looking at lifting your truck? Just asking because I see you have a Prerunner. You can put 4" spindles with an add a leaf for about $500-$600. That's with you doing the install.

    Today I installed new (bought used on Craigslist) Fuel Crush 17" wheels with Toyo 285/70R17 Open Country RT tires.
    Upgraded from the original 16 wheels with 265/70R16 BF Goodrich Rugged Terrain T/A tires.

    Nice! I’ve got the spindle lift, but plan to put Bilstein 5100s for 2 more inches and an add a leaf in the next few months. That’ll put me at 6” lift.

    Lol I need to update my build, as it’s completely out of date now.

    I was running 305/70/17 with my Bilsteins for probably 7 years. With those tires I had to just do the normal CMC, and trim the bumper/fender liner in the wheel well.

    With the 35x12.50 you will want to have the CMC, cut your fenders/flares, hammer the pinch weld, and remove the fender liner almost all together.

    let me know if you want pics of anything and I’ll send them your way. At least until I get my build thread updated.
