    Negative. Multiple plunger dirt rings on it, though.
    I'll pull the cubby box and see if I can get to it from that direction. Want to attempt warm water then plunger first.

    I fear it will gather moisture and condensate, but at this point...hell with it!

    That’s the spirit!

    It’s way more fun once you already have a bunch of dents. Nothing to worry about then.

    Agreed! There's only so many more times I'll be able to run the buffer over the paint anyway, already has one pass on it from last year. So scratches will be what they are.
    Dents, I will try to remove, but it won't be going to a body shop unless I get into an accident and insurance pays out.

    Not following.

    The dent will or the cubby will if you pull it?

    Aren't those things sealed but not really sealed?

    The light may gather moisture. Pull the cubby to smack the dent from inside out.

    Also


    After properly getting out on a good trail and testing myself and the new to me setup, 4.88s and the rear locker have me leaning real hard on 34 or 35 tires. Just on 17" wheels. Want to get rid of the spacers if possible, so unsure of what specs I should browse for.

    If he would have listened to me instead of buying a special plunger in his words, then he would have started with the cubby lol

    Real beadlocks and they sell them in raw aluminum if you want to paint them to whatever you like too.

    Wheel mfg aside, if you're serious about wheeling, look really hard at getting beadlocks. More expensive up front but then you won't be left wanting down the road. I've got the pro comps and they don't lose air either.

    I'm really more partial to steel wheels and the ability to bend one back if needed. Can't with alloy, or at least without getting real lucky.

    Just don't think steel and beadlock is a thing, that I've come across and didn't make me wanna throw up prices

    Allied makes affordable steel beadlocks. They are quite a bit heavier than aluminum though. My 3RZ needs all the help it can get, so aluminum is is for me.
