    Ahhh, that's the main bugaboo, isn't it? If you look closely in the pic, you can see it just in front of the power steering reservoir. You'll have to fab up a mount, open the connector and extend the wires to run the pump in the new location. A longer air tube is needed from the pump to the manifolds, too - but it's do-able.

    What is the width of that box? Is that the 36"? I really want to get a bed box and get rid of my cross box.

    I didn't get around to derping the whole wheel but, I'm almost considering leaving it like this with just the caps done.

    I just got a 2012 TRD O/R MGM and I'm not a fan of the chrome badges. I like the green that Pr3dator has on his MGM but I don't want to copy that same color. I'm am on the Fence between just going black or going with a dark/deep green. What you guys think?

    Removed the chrome step rails?
    Im hoping it will save my butt when I'm in the middle and the mountains and inevitably kill my battery and if not better safe than sorry. I have a feeling it wont take long for the 'light' to snap off though. These Bi**c boxes have for sure saved my butt before!:D

    Even though I carry this thing I still back it up with a folding solar panel just in case. The panel can't jump, but it can recharge me given enough time and sun. I've also used the USB port to recharge my mp3 player when I wasn't in danger of being stranded from a dead batt. And yeah, I figure one wrong thunk and that light's a goner.

    Paint them red or something different. That would stand out on the MGM.

    Added a 1 1/2" block to the rear for just a little bit of rake. I normally wouldn't do a block but since it's only 1 1/2", I think it will be fine. No vibrations and no axle wrap yet. My measurement now in the back from hub to fender is 25 3/4". 1/2" top plate spacers and Light Racing UCAs going on later this week.
