    6 1/2". They are the Hella 500FF lights.

    No, still have the Westin brushguard. Was thinking about a new bumper replacement, but I'll be a while on that one, if ever. I'm not nuts about the plate bumpers from ARB and All Pro (or any others like them). I like the ones by Road Armor, but they don't have one for the Tacoma yet.

    For now, I was thinking of putting some recovery shackles in the front and rear, then make sure I have someone with a winch when I go offroading... :)

    I have no idea when I'll be able to wash my truck for pictures since it's perpetually snowy now, but I will when I can.

    Thanks!

    Actually, planning a trip with Silverback over Christmas. Then, tigerfan found some links to places in Minnesota. Turns out there's a big offroad playground about 2-3 hours north of me, in the Iron Range! Woohoo!

    Now, I just gotta find people to wheel with - don't want to wheel by myself. But, I found a local Toyota 4x4 club. Gonna go to their January meeting and hopefully meet some good people...

    Ended up with a last minute referral to a local garage. I checked them out and they come highly recommended, especially their welder (who happens to be the owner - he's the only welder there, so he did it). They build race cars, custom fab, etc... Only charged me $140 and fit me in at the end of the day.

    I'm probably going back to them after the first of the year to have them build me a roof rack that I can mount lights on. Something like a cross between these two:

    For your Westin brush guard, is it the Sportman 1-Piece? That is the one I am looking at getting.

    There's not too many people on TW up here in Minnesota, but tigerfan00 pointed me to a website for Minnesota Toyota 4x4 owners. Now, I've found this whole underground of offroaders... Gonna start going to their meetings in January.

    I have a stack full of speakers, amps, subs, wiring, etc... waiting on my sub box from Mr. Marv. Wouldn't make it to Minnesota before I left for Texas, so I had him send it there. So, I'm gonna install all that when I get there next week. Can't wait to finally hear how it's gonna sound!

    Then, maybe the roof rack with lights after the first of the year, but this one's a maybe. Lots of things need to be right first - design, clearance, etc...

    Looking forward to it!

    So far, I love it, but I've barely scratched the surface on what it can do. I have a 500GB hard drive that I want to put my music library on and install in the center console, to connect via the USB cable.

    I have two Pioneer PRS-D4200F amps (one for subs, one for the fronts), two Pioneer 10" shallow mount subs, Hybrid Audio Clarion components for the front doors and Alpine 5.25" coaxials for the rear.
