    A few, mainly added skids. I like leaving the suspension alone. I drive forest service dirt roafs in the desert west extremely extremely too fast. Toyota nailed this suspension going 65 across desert terrain. Changing it is dumb unless you have a specific need like crawling or mud.
    Hi TW,


    I just wanted to know if anyone has an exhaust reroute they were happy with. I want to do my transfer skid correctly this time, and ditch the hump.

    Had a local exhaust shop do it for ~$100. Not the prettiest in the world but it has worked fine for ~1.5 years. I had them put the truck on the lift and then showed them some photos from on here of other examples to give them an idea of what to do. Some people add extra heat shielding between the exhaust and the transfer case actuator(?), the black box on the back of the t-case. I didn't bother since I ended up with ~2" of clearance between the two, no issues.

    I did mine a little overkill. Wrapped the exhaust with DEI titanium wrap and not pictured is some gold reflective heat shield I stuck on the black box.
