    Yes I bought it from a dealership.

    The other Toyota is a 4runner. The Taco tows it pretty well. I installed Firestone ride-rite airbags to keep it level.

    I ordered a couple more goodies for the Taco today. ScanGauge II w/ BlendMount, and a 55w 3000k hid set from ddmtuning.com to install in the Hella 500's. I will probably get rid of the BDF lightbar behind the grill and mount the Hella's to the new bumper.

    So what did u use to mount the lights behind the grill did u make a light bar or buy one. I take it you had to relocate the horn but what about the tranny cooler ?

    I have a bdf lightbar, made by member on here. Horns are relocated, tranny cooler can stay in place with most lights.

    Hella 500 they are 6". 7" lights are a tight fit and anything bigger probably wont fit. Yes you can make a bar with aluminum its not that hard. The bdf bar has a lot of adjustability and placement options.

    Here is the thread for the light bar I have incase you are interested. http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/gr...lements-light-bar-behind-grill-group-buy.html

    They are now made by BAMF. I got mine used from another member. Do some searching and you will come up with ideas for a homemade bar.

    My TJM bumper will hopefully go on this weekend. I am working on some mounts for my Rigid Duallys, and the DDM HID kit for the Hellas will arrive tomorrow.

    And something else showed up today. I want to mount these next week with some BFG AT KO 275/70r17's.
