    Been tossing around the idea of getting one, still cheaper than paying for another cat. Any recommendations? Brand? Model? Thanks.

    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.
    This....

    welcome (assuming low post count means you just joined).

    there are several well developed threads regarding this. use search function.

    two major contenders are miller and caliraised. i have miller but have been watching both for a while:
    miller reliable delivery time
    miller does not rattle or touch cats (cali is in the process of correcting this and may be close)
    cali leaves access to front propeller zerks (you won't care with a 2WD)
    cali cheaper

    Here's my set up. Miller Cat shield. Very straight forward installation. Two people preferred, to help you prop it up at the front end. But over all takes about a 1.5 hours.
