    nope. have to let the bank account recoup first. Just the Rigid LED fogs and reverse lights are over $400!!! I'll just leave the winch mount empty for now.
    Maybe I'll get a hawse fairlead and tie off a short piece of synthetic line with a hook hanging out for looks LOL :D

    Traded the 2015 TRD Pro 6spd Supercharged on a PowerWagon and could not be happier. My 2011 Tacoma with the TX Baja package (Added by me) is still treating me great. My 1985 Toyota never skips a beat.
    I have a rigid e series 30" I feel your pain.

    For a winch I have a recon 10500 lb winch from ebay. Comes with synthetic line and waterproof for like 460 I was worried it wouldn't work well but its done great the 15 or so times I used it. I would recommend it. Definitely a cost effective option. Mine is on a winch basket I made and I can chain it to a tree or put it in my reciever etc just made some 25 foot 0 gauge cables and strap it down I. The bed untill I need it

    Kept them on the truck and it was really easy. Taped around badges, 4-5 light coats, 15 minutes in between to dry. When pulling the tape off, it takes all the derp off around the letters. Use a toothpick to get derp out of in the As and Os.

    Check my build thread...too much to list.
    Looks like the nuts fell off and the bolt started riding up. Gotta make sure you go back after a couple hundred miles and retorque that stuff.

    See about a free alignment check (tire places here do it) to make sure the UCA wasn't tweaked?

    I have heard that, glad to know it works.. ill have too give it a shot. Thank you and your truck looks good. I thought about doing my badges red but since the truck is dipped um not sure how yet haha. My friend at work has been asking me to derp her badges so I have something to do this weekend now.
