    ATO front skid (need more but icon's might fail if I hang anything else from my truck) All-Pro front bumper thanks to a good deal here and a pesky encounter with a rock or 20, total chaos uppers.
    Anyone find a way to reinforce the tailgate area so you can use a tiregate without cracking the bedsides? Need a temporary spare tire solution that maintains bed space till I can have something fabricated.
    Thank

    For you 4wd guys, did you drop the front diff to weld in the DMZ motor mount gusset?

    I have the skids off and am dropping the lowers etc to do the cam tab gusset's, figured it might be a good time to do the engine mounts

    You have to drop it to weld correctly.

LOTS of wiring, dual battery setup, Solar charging system, with some random lights spread around here and there.
    I dropped the LCA's and full front diff to gusset the motor mounts. I made my own gussets though. It was much easier to get to that way.

    I didn't. I only did one side though. I had enough room after removing the axle.
