    My brother actually took most of the pictures with my camera. He did a good job. I just cropped a little bit or adjusted things for lighting.

    I can answer that. He is going to be rattling a can of black paint sometime soon. I think the leaning area with the bank is where he used them. I don't think mine ever touched, but I don't have a kickout and my tires stick out a little further.

    I picked up a few small scratches in my bumper on the passenger side.

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    What you have on your truck is not mud haha.

    Wanna know what happened when I listened to brian when he said to "Go Left"?

    A lot of friggin mud, every where. Inside car, inside intake, inside door panels, inside dash.

    Water and mud effs over bearings, seals, and sensors. I have phantom sensor failures non stop now.

    Not to mention all I play on is rocks now and mud makes rocks super slippery. I like to go over things, not through it.

    Yeah... I got all my OME stuff in one shipment. It was one box of shocks, coils, LR UCA's, pretty much everything BUT the leaf packs, then the leaf packs were wrapped together. I offered the UPS guy a beer.

    they just took ups mailer bags and wrapped them around the "sharp edges" where the leaf ends are, and then all the shipping labels stuck all over the place. kind of aggrevating though cuz now im gonna have to try to get all those stupid stickers off before installing.

    LOL! I blame it on faulty signal! LOL! I'm going to buy a new rear diff for it this Friday.. that's what a 3S Lipo will do when it goes out of range! LOL! It was the one that had the new radio with it that did it.. Anyways we'll talk price later... I'll have them up and running soon. But yeah i'll hook you up with that wheel.

    to be honest.. If I don't buy them for the Tacoma before May.. I'll be running on flats! LOL! Besides.. Trying to bounce back from unemployment is a lot harder then most realize! So as soon as i'm back on top i'll be saving for tires and home improvement stuff!
