    Probably just going to make a write up on it soon. It's fairly simple. I just need to grab pictures of everything first and make a parts list so it's easy to follow along.

    I didn't pay for the Flatlink so that's the only reason I'm rocking it.

    I second this. The hooks work great. No real reason to swap them out unless they start to show signs that they're about to break.

    The search function is great, "There will only be a simple yet effective hook on the end of my winch line. Even if gifted one, it will be used as a paperweight."

    I got my FlatLink in a GB so I saved some monies. I also have 100' of synthetic line that needs to go on my winch, so I figured I'd get the nice end attachment while I was at it. You don't have to worry about your line coming undone when it's got slack so that's nice

    Mods


    ARMOR

    RelentlessFab Predator Front Bumper (progress)
    -> Probably my favorite part on the truck. Love how it looks and improves the front end of the Tacoma. Definitely recommended!

    RelentlessFab Rear Bumper (progress)
    -> This bumper has taken a beating and still doesn't show signs of deterioration. Definitely a worth while investment, especially with how much overhang there is on the Tacoma.

    Demello Offroad Hybrid Rock Sliders
    -> Rock sliders are generally the first modification that I recommend to people who are building off road vehicles. In my eyes, they're invaluable!

    RelentlessFab 3/16" Steel IFS Skid
    -> A great investment, especially for those who like to drag their rigs over rocks.

    1/4" Steel Belly Skid
    -> In order to continue protecting the underneath of my Tacoma, this was a necessity. 1/4" is overkill, but it's won't bend or break anytime soon.


    SUSPENSION

    IVD Suspension Coilovers/Rear Shock

    TIRES

    33x12.5R15 Goodyear Wrangler MTR (testing)


    ACCESSORIES

    Tepui Autana Sky RTT
    -> RTTs are very pricey, especially since a good ground tent can be a fraction of the cost. For my usage, it's great. Setup/tear down is fast, and it always keeps me warm and comfy.


    RECOVERY

    Warn M8000
    -> Installed this along with MasterPull Superline Black and some goodies from Factor 55. Also ran winch power and controls into the cab.
