    Well since I was depressed about the dealer ordering me the wrong part and have to wait a little bit longer...I bought this to make myself feel better.

    So now I can get rid of my butt ugly one.

    I also noticed, you can see it in the picture, the middle of the two bars on on my bumper are starting to rust, so I'll have to fix that. :| Guess the powdercoat couldn't quite get in there.

    The dealer ordered me the wrong part down in SoCal. That was a piss-off, as I was slightly time constrained:rolleyes:
    Ah well...
    Spending money on the truck is always good:D

    I'm just mad because I remember specifically reiterating it to them the precise difference in this particular thing I needed...and they still messed up.

    But I'm still waiting on other parts for this particular project so not much I can do anyway. I haven't put on the fairlead yet because my special winch lock bolt thing was at the other house of course lol

    Not having a winch lock bolt thing is better than leaving your lugnut key in California when you live in BC :rolleyes: Yeah...

    Sweet! I got a really nice wheel lock set from Discount Tire since they didn't tighten them very well when I went in once and one fell off. I chewed them out for it so they paid for a new one. They even say TRD on them which I thought was cool.

    I installed a tube bumper not too long ago but right away I realized my radiator was exposed to potential damage from a rock or other debris flying thru the small holes that allow more airflow, & bigger than shit.. it happened, a rock came thru the pass. side hole smacking my radiator , dimpling & crushing a few fins...
