    Yeah wrap the head light in a damp towel and put in for at least 7 min up to 15 min max. Steam them apart! Maybe go for a retro fit!

    Nice build!

    Im looking forward to my aluminum bumper!

    Its very simple. Use a medium sized flat tip and prepare for it to get thrown away. The stock sealant is hard to get off once on the flat tip.

    Ok, plenty of throw-a-way flat tips on hand. I may source out a retro-fit while I'm at it.

    Yup, and yeah it was fun, but I'm still super bummed about missing the trip. Especially since it was most likely the last big trip your taco will see.

    Yeah, it was a good time, but it was spendy. I spent at the upper end of what I thought we would. I still havent calculated it out though. The wife is bummed we're getting rid of it because of the fun we had on the trip. I'll have something else though. Maybe a first gen, or something a little older.

    ....First off... Amazing Tacoma! That thing is a beast!! I'd be breaking my neck looking at your Tacoma if I drove past that rig! :eek::drool::thumbsup:

    -Second... the mount you're using for your roof LED bar, that is the same mount made by Relentless Fab correct? I like the look of it on your Tacoma and would like to get the same. I saw in the Relentless Fab site that you guys are selling some and its by far the most reasonably priced one I have come across without paying the same price that you'd pay for the light bar itself.

    -Third.. Is this design what the mounts look like now? I read on the site that the mount in the photos were a "prototype shown". Are you running the final product? It looks cleaner and with a lower profile which I like. Could just be a play of photos, but still looks great!

    My apologies in advance for going off topic!

    Any info will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Jon

    The mount I'm running IS the Relentless Fab mount. It is the finished product designed for the radius 50.

    And thanks :cool:

    I'm guessing there is a slight difference between the radius mount and the 42" straight bar mount? Or are they, by appearance, fairly much the same? I'm looking at running the 42" straight bar for now. Truly appreciate the quick response! I'll most likely end up pulling the trigger on the mount tonight from you guys!

    Thanks again!

    The 42" mounts sit a tad higher, and are the mounts shown in the picture on the site

    Damn... I had a 42" lined up. Guess I'll have to see if I can get a Radius that's in my price range or keep looking for a different mount.

    Thanks for the info none the less! Still a great price and great looking mounts!

    Our 50" radius bars are pretty reasonable, plus you can use TW10OFF to get 10% off..

    I'll try and get out and take some night shots tonight, might be a stretch considering my little girl just broke her arm though. Plus, Rober aka ROCKSLINGER has night shots up in his build. He has the exact set-up as me.
