    Just running OEM for now. Only upgrade is the RCV's right?

    Already had enough $ tied into the swap. Maybe down the road if I see it necessary.

    This is the one I got. They also have the stitching in red:

    Manually activate the ADD and shift into gear. Everything else is off the Tacoma 4x4. With the FJ TC you don't have to change to a 4x4 ECU...wiring would be the biggest headache.

    Got my rear vanity plate/dome light back in. Plate ties into the cage and has large dimple die with translucent plexiglass behind them so the light glows through. Picture doesn't do it any justice looks really good in person.

    The only difference internally is the FJ case has a split shift fork and the Tacoma Tcase has a single shift rail, well and the FJC comes manual J-shift and the Tacoma case electric shift. They both use the same main shaft, chain, etc. The split forks are nice if you want to convert it to a twin stick. The Taco case can only be converted to a J shift and not a Twin stick.

    Yup mine is Mild, bumper needs to act like a bumper and have a crunch zone of sorts. DOM is just going to bend the frame mounts/frame. Better to replace a bumper than straightening the frame.
