    sorry about the for sale post everyone. had all my tools stolen but I just restocked em at harbor freight. no more laziness about carrying it in.

    anyways, the trd skid plate fit perfectly in my 05 single cab with a 4 cylinder, so add that to a sticky somewhere.

    also installed buckets and my God is it a great upgrade.

    Yesterday I finally started working on the truck again. Sliders when back on after having the blasted and powder coated. Then I started taking the front suspension out to put in some Fox shocks. Can anyone tell me what the bolt pattern is and how long the bolts are for the fox 2.5 top hat? I didn't get any buying them used so I had to stop last night till I find some that work. Thanks in advance. Got the driver side all torn out and half the passenger before it got dark. I'll start on the rear end later this week.

    I'm getting ready to do this too.
    Who makes that switch?
    Did you need to run the switch off a relay?

    Finally decided to fix my driver's side visor today. I watched the YouTube video from the other thread on this topic and it worked great. Reapplying the liner was a bit tedious and not the most beautiful job, but it's functional and hard to see especially with the black visor wrap on it. Below are pictures of before and after as well as the seam job I did using double-sided fabric tape.

    Always something. After finding the right bolts for my Fox top end. The lower shock bolts are corroded and wont fit the spacers on the shocks. Also one of the spacers is crushed and oval now so I need to order some new ones of those also. :annoyed: looks like new suspension wont be on till next weekend...
    Going to start the rear this week and I'm hoping I won't find any more surprises.
