    So next on the list I'm debating sliders or an IFS skid
    Sliders=side protection, hi lift jack point, and step
    Or IFS skid but I really want one fabricated not just a bolt one like theses ones to replace my lower variance area. So I can keep the plastics for light weight 4 cyl action.

    I suggest doing a projector retrofit to your headlights. It cost me around $300. It is a mod that you use everyday as appose to other mods that only get used while off roading.
    Your truck would look cool with the black head light mod too while your at it.

    True true true those headlights would stay true to the black plastics look I want to keep. I'm just scared of cutting and wiring lights back together.:anonymous:

    Retrofit is a good next mod, I love mine. It's gonna be closer to $500-1200 depending on what projectors you pick. You need to go with larger more expensive projectors, FX-R or LS460R, because your stock headlights are brighter than all the mini projectors TRS offer's. You're trying to upgrade your truck, not downgrade..

    It's not to hard to do, just buy a spare set of headlights so your truck is still drive-able while you build them

    Here's some LS460Rs and TRS LED fog lights I put on a taco

    Thats a DTF type C, if that's what you want, we can make that. Just a couple tubes, not a big deal

    EDIT: could probably shove a winch in there instead of a light bar. But I know you love that China bar

    I slaved myself a Saturday night to mount his China bar on the front valance. Now he wants to rip that chet out to add a bumper? I'm going to start charging for my consultation services.

    No it's staying in the same damn place I love that china bar. I just want to remove some plastic for some steel protection.

    That's the type I leaning more toward and (black) so it stock looking. but I want it to stick out a lil more than flush. Just in case actually bump something a little I don't hit plastics first. I'm not hardcore enough yet for a self recovery item lol

    It sucks to add weight to the front and rear of the truck. Thats why I keep my weight centered and why Daniel ditched his front bumper

    Yup winches are heavy. I don't think that tube bumper will weigh much? Not like a ARB or all pro plate.

    But If I run four ppl in my truck it feels real smooth. Prolly not to the ppl in rear jump seats. But I've never been back there to find out.

    Maybe with integrated muti-light bracket instead of light tabs so. I can change or move lights as desired in the future?

    Its the BAMF behind grill light bar bracket mount. It's adjustable for multiple light bar sizes.

    You need to do a shatoshi grill to run that light bracket.
