    A little late but my niece has had good luck at Hotchkiss on Colfax near Quebec. They’re taking care of the ‘93 4Runner V6 5sp I sold her about 15 years ago. I bought it from my SIL. Miss that rig!

    Replaced engine with gerbils for sustainability.
    I appreciate all the recommendations. If Tru doesn’t work out, I’ll probably see if I can get Jace at Stevinson since he’s come up several times.

    I’ve been to High Country 4x4 a few times and won’t be returning. They were rude and I repeatedly got the impression they don’t know Tacomas. They told me there’s no way to fit 35s without cutting holes in the floorboard of the cab.

    I'm not sure if it's too late. What do the RCI's not cover that others do? I didn't want to have to pay shipping, and RCI is just a 20-30 minute drive for me. I saw that set for sale, and it's exactly the set I ordered! I would have jumped on them otherwise. However, I paid $1000 for my RCI order (they're having a sale), and the asking price for that used set is $700, which doesn't seem that appealing of a comparative deal to me.

    RSG has 20% off at shows around here sometimes. I was going to get them because I can go pick them up in Lakewood. They’re right off colfax

    I’m mainly bitter that they designed a terrible skid plate for the 1st gen that does not even cover the lower corners of the radiator. I can’t remember if the RCI sliders have issues.

    They’re kinda short. I believe other sliders are a tad longer

    I had stock 1st gen sliders on my truck the entire time I owned it and never once scratched them. My Scout never had skid plates, nothing. Never once tagged anything.
    Pick better lines. :stirthepot:

    Those are great protection from shopping carts as well, I really liked mine.
    Honestly, they are the better/more used protection simply due to wheelbase.

    It's official, 6 of my LEGO sets are about to be displayed at an art show as shelf filler. I'll post pics when they send them to me.

    It looks like they don't make them for the DCLB, at least the ones with no plate and yes kickout.

    I didn't like the look of their skid plate. It's hard to look as good as the TRD plate, though.

    Mine was useful in the deep snow this weekend. Made a nice smooth track for me to drag my rear diff through.
