    I didn't even know the public had access to the Vista House at night?? I would have thought it was locked off down the hill like a state park or something... News to me! I'll be doing that in the future for sure! Awesome photo btw! :D

    · Aftermarket fog lights · TracRac G2 with extra tie down points · Bilstein 5100’s on the front at 1.75” · Scangauge · Rubber bed mat · Relentless tailgate reinforcement · Window rain deflectors · Back seat dog bench. I got tired of him drooling on the dash, nose printing on the windows and getting in the way of the side mirror. He farts a lot too but the bench won’t help with that. · 265/75-R16 Goodyear DuraTrac’s on Pro Comp 7089 wheels. A couple of the wheels took a lot of weights but they’re smooth all the way to >85 mph and then a little vibration starts. · I removed the back seat headrests. · I disconnected the key chime. · I added a wiper switch with the intermittent option. · A subtle Steal Your Face stencil · Removed badges
    Wheelers progressive 3 leaf pack.
    Bilstein's
    Daystar airbag cradles.
    Got about 1 3/8" with the overload leaf removed.
    I put Bilsteins at 1.75" on the front last fall. To make it look level I had to put 18 lbs. in the airbags and it rode harsh. Now I have 5 and it rides much better. Sits pretty level too.

    i don't think the gator emblem would look good there, cuz of the size, unless you are mounting it on a blank area.

    I decided I wanted storage space behind the seats of my access cab more than I did room for passengers.
    So I built a platform to replace the seats.

    Seats/console come out.

    Fab a shelf, cover it with carpet.

    Set it in place.

    Picked up my wheels from Toyota. 4 new TRD trail teams in black. Went to walmart to get the goodyear Authority's mounted but they were swamped. Going to try again Monday. Also, picked up Bestop Softtopper. Two actually. Local guy had two forsale. One new and one used. Think I'm going to sell the used one on here and keep the new.

    Also did the intermittent wiper switch mod.

    I'm sure their people are just as qualified as the 19 y/o installer at discount tire.

    Me! :D

    I wanted something different that was lighter as well as stronger than the typical plate skids that are available now.

    I'm expecting the skid to weigh in at 50lbs.

    They look good. I might need to take some ideas from your design. I'm planning on making my own skids after I finish my bumpers.
