    It’s pretty self explanatory, mine had vague directions. It’s heavy AF to do by yourself to install. Just make sure you weld inside and out before the front plate goes on but it really was very easy to burn together. I laid it all out on the ground, and just started to tack it all together. This kit was Super easy and was much more affordable than buying a bumper from another company, but that’s only if you have all the necessary tools to complete the job. I just needed a welder and grinder. Keep in mind the hoops don’t come pre notched if you get the full hoop version. The holes all lined up perfect for me on the bumper.

    I've seen the videos and threads of people repairing those, but there's no point repairing that. Rock Auto has them for $75. Until then, maybe a hat and sunglasses. That's crazy how it just broke into all those pieces.

    Came with MGM topper. Added FJammer stereo. LED Bed lights on AOB Flux Capacitor Switch. Added AOB Spy Mode switch for TBD lighting, stay tuned.
    So mine is without a mirror or vanity lights. According to part numbers I've found online, Amazon or one of the Toyota parts stores had them for about $40-50.
    So yeah, probably going to go that route. But I thought if I could fix it for free, sweat equity was less costly than Amazon. Oops.

    4.88’s and Harrop e locker in the rear. Still need to wire up the e locker due to some issues but I’m loving it. A bit over geared for 33’s so I’m sure it’ll be perfect for 35’s

    How is the changeout with the EZ-Pack? I don't really like using the little pumps and not being able to get all the oil out of the bottles.
