    Installed redline hood supports - no more hood prop! I painted the strut body and mounts white before installing for a more OEM look.

    ^ Damn, I can't believe that's an '05. The underside of your hood is just too clean! Nice touch on the white shocks.

    Thank you, Thank you. That is my first bumper that i have built. Last month I made rock sliders for my truck no problem, and had extra tube and was just tinkering around with my bender and was able to get a good form fitting bar and just kept adding to it.

    Thanks. I made another thread about it and there are a couple more pics of it on there. I am already planning to upgrade it some. If you come up with ideas, be sure to post them so we can all benefit too. :D

Still had bucking , put in lift than after 150 miles "what the $#^*" . Hard knocking sound center of cab. After many calls to Toyota ect. Carring bearing, installed new, and a spacer, drives better than new. I had no vibrations nothing. next time a woods drive shaft.:D

    So far I've added an Advance folding bed cover and since removed it. Gave it to my son in Maine, he has an 05 2wd. GT perfect fit seat covers. Weathertech floor mats and window vent visors. Waag center brush/grill guard. Hose clamp tailgate mod. Turned off the seat belt chime. Added Ultra-Gauge. Trailer hitch. Softopper. Replaced sun visors with slide out style. Toyota bed extender. Had Firestone Destinations and now Michelin LTX AT2 in stock size. More mods to come; Fog lights, locking storage in bed, intermittent wipers. Now looking for Radio/HU upgrade. and maybe a lift way down the road.
    Steveolo, have you noticed an increase in wind noise. I had these on an older truck and the noise was huge but the benefit was better. I think I'll put them on my 2009 but was wondering about noise.
