    The moment I open the garage door to venture out to fiddle with my things they can’t help but follow me and get dirty in there with me. It used to be frustrating and stressful but I try to enjoy and embrace any company they offer

    Thank you kind sir! Well I’m all about simple, strong, high and tight & the plate bumper was incredibly bulky where it didn’t need to be. I am very thankful for the tube bumper Joe built for me. It is one of my most favorite things about the truck! I need to add some tube work to my tucked front end / winch tray also

    Today I put my old project car up for sale. A 92 Celica All-trac with tons of hours and to much money into. Its been sitting for about 12 years and I just can't get myself excited about it anymore. Anyone interested DM me.

    How difficult was the installation? Did you get the aluminum or SS?

    Gave her a wash and started cutting up the new skid to work with the front subframe chop. I have all the metal to get started and will be finishing it next weekend. Also will start making my new trans crossmember to gain some ground clearance and to have the trans mounts poly to go along with the motor mounts. Stock crossmember has seen better days and is pretty flimsy from factory.

    The new retrofit? They are doing great. Really bashed on the truck for a weekend and the projectors are snugged tight enough to where they don’t noticeably wobble the beam while wheeling and they haven’t aimed down / sagged either. Went with budget minded acme SUPER H1 with the fancy precision bulb holders and a fresh set of 35w morimoto 4300k bulbs. Dollar for dollar can’t beat it honestly.
