    OME lift. ARB bumper. Trans cooler, pillar pods, Alpine stereo, backup cam, LED headlights, Fog lights. Window tint.
    Any aftermarket body parts with buying. Need a tailgate. Dealer new $400, junkyard $350, RockAuto/Amazon $150. I realize the aftermarket is lighter, but how much lighter?

    The Amazon tailgate weighs about 45lbs, and the factory weighs around 60 (according to Google). In most build circumstances, lighter is better.

    Aftermarket body parts/panels typically have poor fit. I'd rather pay a little more for the OEM, than waste hours trying to make the aftermarket fit. The last project I did I actually sent the aftermarket grill and bumper parts ordered off Amazon back and reordered from MacGeorge Toyota. Would have been way ahead of the game ordering OEM from the beginning.
