    Great shots taken by BullyDog during testing of their Non-Supercharged Tacoma Tuner!

    I was fortunate enough to have my truck involved in this process!

    Put a write up when you do. I want to see how you cram all the wiring through the pillar. I have the same thing (6 switch blank) but using 5 of the available 6 switches. There was not enough room in 1 pillar for all the wiring so I had to run another set through the other pillar (avoiding the airbags of course).

LOTS of wiring, dual battery setup, Solar charging system, with some random lights spread around here and there.
    Did you run a single wire for every terminal or did you bridge all the common powers and grounds into a single wire? I'm planning on doing the same thing here shortly and am wondering?

    Each switch needs 2 grounds, I did not want to jumper all the grounds to 1 common ground, instead I ran 1 ground for the top of the switches and 1 ground to the bottom as I did not want to pick up impedance. I daisy chained them together and it's been working good thus far. Most of that wiring though is 2 ARB air locker harnesses which contain I think 5 or 6 wires by themselves, and the winch is another 5 wires.

    Love it! Nice low and throaty rumble.

    I plan on becoming bestfriends with a cinematographer so I'll be focused on getting some great video content in 2015 :D

    Do you have any pictures of how much you had to get cut out of your fenders to fit the 35's with the LT kit?

    Congrats on getting the best rack ever :D
    I used the supplied brackets from my Rigid lightbar and mounted it directly to the underside of the rack. I drilled two holes in it but someone could easily fab a bracket that would line up to the track system on the rack instead of drilling holes.

    The cab mount chop was fabbed up by my buddy who works at All-Pro so I'm not sure the exact specs on it. The only other thing I had to do was "massage" some of the inner area flat with a hammer.
