    I like the Bamf HD shackle hangers and cross brace.
    Really tightened up the rear.
    I did the Bamf shock relocate at the same time.
    Got lots of travel.

    depends on the year, but i like to have them in bulk when the pricing is good. i can likely do the oil changes on my wife's Subaru for the next few years without needing to buy more filters.
    plus ive a nephew who also drives a toyota and occasionally shows up asking to use shop space

    That's fair. I buy them in bulk and just use them threw out a year or more. Depends on how many trips I take. I think I have 2 still with one change before we hit the road full time. So I have a couple spares.

    That makes sense.
    throw a Fumoto on there and you won't need the crush washers either.

    Interesting, I only have to cut the lower part of the channel and not that lower rib. Otherwise made the same cuts on the USO bumper mount as well.

    Does anyone have a suggestion of a grease gun that doesn't leak (much) or a good way to transport one? I'm going to need to bring one with me once we are on the road and I really don't want to have my current cheapo one leaking in my tool box.

    use a 6 or 9 mil garbage back. Thicker is better. used these to line sea bags and kept the gear dry.

    my grand fathers is the only one I've ever used that doesn't leak all over the place, but it still leaks. I've a needle style about the size of a redbull can and that is better but you also have to load the grease into the cyl
