    I drilled through mine and was then able to use an easy out. But a machine or fabrication shop would be your best bet.

    That's what I'm here for, the mods and the gear.
    May I ask where you got these strips?

    Love the look of the tires with no lift. You mentioned hammering the pinch weld but did you do a CMC? I'm currently planning on 285/70/17 with no lift so I'm curious what I'm gonna have to cut

    I’m not the person you asked but I’ve done it for buddies of mine. Depending on the brand of tire. Front viper cut, cut some plastic off on the rear of the wheel well, cmc and pinch weld. You can probably get away with less but if you wheel you need as much space as possible

    MJE_Tacoma is correct. If you want to run 285s without a lift, you'll need to do the pinch weld, CMC, remove some plastic/fender liner and a front viper cut. I will say that if you plan to take the truck off-roading, I would be mindful what lines you take cause you will rub.

    I have lifted the truck since that picture so I have not done my cmc yet (also, because I'm kinda tired of working on the truck since I did a lot of work in the past 2 months). I didn't want to do the front viper cut since I want to sell the front bumper when I get my high clearance bumper. I will get to it eventually but I'm holding off since I'm trying to learn how to weld and want to weld a plate the same time I do the chop.

    Continuation of my last 3 posts. Photo heavy...again

    Early/Mid June - Finally got my Rago Fabrication center console molle (still no cb antenna mount, delayed). 6 front runner quick release awning mounts, front runner wind fairing, pelican vault for recovery gear, front runner traction board mounts, maxtrax. Also added rear work lights/chase lights to my diamondback cover (with quick disconnect near the front of the bed when I take off the diamondback), changed the clear lens on the squadron sports to amber

    Before - with radio connections on passenger side

    Passenger side w/ midland micromobile gmrs radio

    Front runner quick release awning mounts (did 3 on each side, passenger is for awning, driver for privacy tent/shower room, but since there are 3 on each side, I can use both side for either one).
