    $350 isnt really much painted. You can prob sell your OEM bumper for money to offset the cost of these.[/QUOTE]

    I would go for and push a Total on that truck with that frame damage ect. Your resale later will be bad showing a wreck! Hidden damage in other places in the frame hit that hard knocking it out of alignment.

    So sorry about your truck. Another scum bag probably texting. Hope his or her teeth ate some steering wheel. I hope you stated neck and back pain to responding officer. If not when you do civilian accident report you can add it. Go to ER and have it billed to the other guys auto insurance. Get attorney and stick it to the fucker.

    Built me a portable shower system for my Tacoma. Made it using a 12v Dewalt adapter. I like this as a good alternative from the other Lithium power pack. I always have dewalt batteries around. Now I need to figure out a good mounting system for the can.

    Sometimes thats what we have to do and that is unfortunate. Flip the key to face the dash. A slide hammer will easily pull the key cylinder out of those. Just my .02

    Swapped out my radio knobs again! I think I like these way better than the AJT's. Just seems cleaner.

    I installed the same last week, but mounted it a bit higher, which made the radar(?) cover obstruct part of the camera's view.

    Pro tip here is to install the app and fire up "live view" before mounting to ensure good placement. Especially because the adhesive will only work one time and a new mount costs $10 (Garmin doesn't sell replacement adhesive, you need to buy the whole ball assembly).

    So far so good. Just keeping it easy until I get time to adjust my fronts and get aligned. Much better on the big bumps, and way improved on the front end dive when braking, which I think was worse for me because of weight up front.
    I’m not too worried about part/serviceability, Elka is a pretty big name, just not as much in our end. My only concern would be where I have to go for service, as they’re a Canadian company. I’ve got a few miles to figure that out though.

    I'm so sorry - Looks like the beemer never even hit the brakes. No skid marks at all. I bet texting and driving. This is not the time to be a nice guy - make sure you take care of you.

    How much lift did you get in the front with the preload run down that far? I’m running 700# springs as well, and I’m going for about 1 1/2” of lift. I think that should keep me around half way on the a available adjustment.

    I dig em! They're on my short list of possibles while I continue to obsessively search. I'm in a similar boat - wife wants (kids need) steps. Other than not being your first choice bc he wanted sliders, what puts you on the fence?
