    2022 Certified TRD OR, DCSB. Not sure of what first owner did, if anything, beyond removing the splash plate (its absence suggests there was a real skid plate installed by the revious owner).

    Well, current condition and expected changes in the next 2 weeks ...

    My basic emergency kit as it stands:
    > ARB tire patch kit
    > TRED GT traction boards
    > Viair 88P air compressor
    > ARB deflator tool
    > Bottle jack came with truck, 2x4/plywood for plate
    > Noco jumpstarter
    > CB Radio I have had for decades
    > Folding shovel to dig sand and mud safely around tires
    > 18 in C-cell maglite flashlite to assault random strangers in the middle of nowhere

    On the way:
    > RCI front skid
    > Exhaust crossover re-route (before after pictures will be added)
    > Probably will get RCI transmission plate and converter shields

    In short, playing defense for a while ... both for the budget and for the truck.

    Eventually:
    > Truck mounted winch
    > Kinetic recovery straps/rope
    > D-rings
    > Snatch blocks
    > Hi-lift jack
    > Rock sliders
    > TC, diff, gas tank and control arm plates

    Maybe:
    > Obnoxious light bar
    > Dukes of Hazzard horn
    > 6 in lift kit
    > 37 in tires
    > Regearing
