    So what exactly would be the problem? The lug nuts not having enough thread and backing out?

    Well I'll run them and check them daily to make sure they aren't backing out, and if they are I'll either trim the caliper or order some .75" spacers.

    Not today but last night I finished installing 4runner map lights into my Tacoma, then did the cheap dome mod and wired up diodes to it so it all lights up correctly

    Was about to pull the trigger on this mod, but decided to spend my money on other parts :p

    I'm no good AT ALL when it comes to electrical/wiring things so I backed away :eek:

    So I'm ready to buy a winch bumper for my 95.5, but have only done a little research. I want something that is going to last. Something not as heavy as an arb. Reasonable price, and fits the lines of the truck well would be nice, too.

    Anyone have any suggestions? Pics of what you went with, and how you like it?


    Any info is appreciated, thanks.
