    Got my axe and shovel mounted. My dad and I used some u bolts, muffler clamps and security nuts. It turned out pretty good. Here are some pics. We spent less than $20 on everything.

    I just cook a bunch of stuff that I really like on weekends (when I have time) and freeze individual servings. Toss a frozen package into the lunchbox in the mornings and microwave it at lunch. Healthy, hot, convenient, fast, tasty, and cheap!

    I replaced my clutch master cylinder and bled it within 45 minutes! Used a vacuum bleeder to initially pull fluid through the slave. I love this truck! I'm so glad I don't have a Ranger anymore. That pos took several hours to replace the slave/master and good luck getting it bled correctly.

    The eBay oil cap I ordered came in today and I was very pleasantly surprised by the quality and fit and finish. The cap itself is generic and comes with a metal backed sticker. Installation took all of three minutes and I put on the oil cap first so the TRD would be right side up when fully tightened. For $9.99 shipped it was well worth the price. Thanks to @Rod03 for finding the listing.

    Here is a link to the eBay listing.

    And here are a few pictures of the oil cap installed.

    I received my Shrockworks sliders! I ordered them around July 20th, and got them yesterday. They were packaged extremely well, and arrived without damage. I think I've reached a milestone here...I'm pretty much done with the few modifications I wanted to perform on my truck. I may tinker with the suspension later on once the stock components start to wear out, but I'm done for now.

    A better picture of my new bumper and how my truck sits now. Really happy with it, now have to decide on winch, fogs, and light bar.

    Thanks for the heads up. I will keep an eye on it. Did you contact the seller and ask for a new sticker? Maybe use some more robust 3M double sided tape?

    I installed these. Once you have the templates on for the holes, the actual lights go on in minutes. What took me much longer was the wiring...but that's because I'm so anal about that kind of thing. It has to be perfect.

    I modified how I hooked them up though. I didn't like them working with the dome light. So I wired them with a switch so I can turn them on when I want them on...or off.

    Tape off the bottom part of the cap and clear coat it. That will seal the sticker to the cap
