    That is a daisy chain (Black Diamond) and I hooked it up to close the top. While I'm short...I don't care how tall you are...if you have a FZJ80 on 35's and it's parked slightly downhill or at the apex of a hill...it's tough to close that sucker up...and damn near impossible when short. I also used it to hold flashlights, towels, etc. when using the tailgate for cooking, etc. I replaced the shocks with extra strong ones from a supplier out of Sydney...and I could damn near do pull ups on the rear hatch.

    Thanks for the compliments on the rig...it belongs to an Elk guide in Wyoming now. It just wasn't the best vehicle for the DC Metro area.

    ^^^This....not many of us get all this shit all at once. Took me 3 yrs to get my truck to where it is. Most of us do our own work as well. That saves a shit tone of money. Another thing is, I do my best to only buy large ticket items on sale, in group buys, or used in the BST thread.

    Do any of you guys with armor take it off when you're not wheeling then put it on right before you are? My truck has sooooo much weight now, and it just hit me.....

    tell me about it. I thought about removing the skids when I don't need them. But they also provide protection from thieves that steal catalytic converters.

    lol
    Yeah, I guess I just meant the easily removable stuff. Just got a winch myself, and I can feel every extra lb at this point. I'm debating removing my skids and the two large boxes of recovery gear/survival crap that I drive around with. Was at Demello the other day and Jason's sick 4Runner was there, but he had no skids, so that got me to thinking...
