    On my 2nd pair (1st replacement) in 8 yrs. Original set lasted 6 yrs. I simply bought the rubber part only (the actual blades not the whole arm assy) from Toyota. $6 each.
    Great price for a long lasting product which was a piece of cake to install.

    Decided it was close enough to the end of April to take off the winter tires & wheels. After various family jiggery pokery with assorted Toyotas, my 2022 off road is now sporting the wheels it was built with, and the tires it had when delivered. (KO2 265/75/16)

    Saving the mud tires for hunting this fall.

    Made the trip up to Alberta to have Summit Expedition install a flat bed. Modular platform with tons of options down the road. 60” length. 40” sealed sliding drawer. Sealed storage box behind the wheels. Couldn’t be happier.

    What’s the difference between your bed and this flat bed? Do you gain anymore payload?

    I opted for a set of side gates. They’re removable so it can covert to a true flatbed. The flatbed itself is roughly the same weight as the stock box, tailgate, etc. Added options like the sealed drawer add a bit of weight. I’m sitting just over 100 pounds from stock weight.

    I would recommend avoid doing any business with 303 shock services.

    USPS lost the package, then found it. Upon opening it today this is the condition of the lower shock bolts I received. The threads are heavily galled and the nut will not thread. I've emailed them multiple times and now they want me to pay return shipping so they can inspect the bolt to determine if replacements should be sent. I paid over $9 to ship these from CO to AZ. Now they I have to pay to ship these back? Seriously?

    303 Shock Services can blow me. :brianr::brianr::brianr:

    thank you, appreciate it!
    It’s too fckn tall :rofl:
    Seriously, it downhill spiraled so quick. Started 3” OME/Bilstein - killed the OME pack/broke a front shock
    Went Pro comp 6 - went Fox coilovers with resi front, custom Alcan 6” leaf pack, Bilstein 5160 rear, hammer hangers etc.

    If I were to rate it, prolly a 6” front (cv’s are flat as stock) and almost an 8” rear. It’s fun when you have to load big fish in the cooler lol

    Where is the drawer at? We need to see this guy opened up. Also looks like the sides both fold down and are removable?

    The drawer slides/extends lengthways right underneath the flatbed surface. Drawer face is essentially the “bumper”. Right in the middle where the license plate mounts.

    And that’s correct. The side gates fold down and are also removable.

    Can you run a die down those and clean them up? Obviously not ideal. Pretty evident they’re damaged. Looks like someone tried to pound them in.

    Sick! I love it. Did you source the paint in a rattle can? I've been able to purchase Hellcat and STI colors in rattle cans for little stuff like this. I really want to do this now. SO sick.

    The question is...did it come with a CARB sticker? ( Nice rig BTW. Love the stance. Makes me wish I went higher than 2.5 with the lift...)

    Thanks for the kind words, but trust me..no you don’t haha. Find a way to get 33s and honestly, that’s the perfect height/tire combo.
    This fish didn’t just tire me fighting it, getting it in the cooler in a high truck was just as bad. Lol
