    No. Took it for a drive and everything seemed fine. Basically at the same height, just moved back like 3 inches.

    An hour after I finished the grille my OEM LED headlights came in. Big thanks to @Puppypunter for the SR5 harness. Worked great.

    Seems way early for those bushings to go bad, right? Is this a known issue? Glad it solved your noise issue!

    i dig that grille! It's nice because it's not the normal PRO grille. I'd love to LED headlights in the future, what did those run you?

    Actually it does now that you mention it. Maybe the angle of the picture has something to do with it. :notsure:

    Been away for a while. (Looks like 1,500 pages or so). New house (1,300 miles away), new job (major pay cut), but relaxing on this 80 degree day by the pool. Yea, it was fun blasting through the snow, but I think I’ll be ok without it.

    It's a pain in the ass to get to the 3rd bolt behind the bumper. Getting the new ones in without scratching them was tricky too. An extra set of hands would help.

    Yeah, I used painter tape and taped everything up to not get any scratches. Both headlights, bumper, fender. might have gone a little crazy but didn't want to take any chances.

    only high mount exhaust I see is the R4T one. Wasn’t set on it fully, but I planned to get the carven. Sounded good on my Silverado and on YouTube people seem to like it for the tacos

    So they didn't believe you that your bushings were bad?? WTF??
    What is the part number for those bushings from Energy Suspension? Might be a good thing to do this proactively?

    Finally got some pics yesterday. I've still got to make some adjustments on the underside of the cover to get the gaps fixed. But like said, it's on.
