    Thanks KC, it was more work than I thought it would be, and they are a bit over-kill I guess (main tube is 2x2x3/16 wall) but will certainly hold up to some abuse.

    Since Im going with the all-white look on my Tacoma my wife has been joking that it looks like a Stormtrooper,,lol.

    Fiberglass work is definitely NOT FUN. I added an L-88 hood-scoop on a '79 Corvette I had back in '87,,man it was a PITA. Good luck with it and wear a respirator when sanding it!

    Kind of crazy how the BS thread just lit up these past few days. Good to see the activity. Hopefully can have a meet soon and get familiar with some new faces.

    I get my lift on on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. ;)

    Looks like I may be refreshing my shocks within the next week or so. The pile of parts is getting taller in the garage. Need to make some time to install them.

    YOU need a food meet. Crazy competition prep. :p

    Several of us have done Cedro Peak. It is a nice little trip that gets you outdoors without killing an entire day.

    http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/south-west/273873-nm-adventure-series-17.html#post7684757

    Would be something that any stocker can do. The Steps are a little rough but anyone with a rear locker can manage. It is quite easy fully locked. The pictures of the Steps start on the above link where I almost run over Nick. BTW, the Steps are optional.

    I'd be up for it as long as my allergies allow. Hell, Cedro Peak makes me want to dust off the mtb.

    Wife rolled it 3x mod...
    Should have stayed and done that run with you that weekend... If I had, I would still have a truck, that was the weekend my wife rolled my truck.

    On a second note, that would be a good place for my first run in the Disco to test out it's capabilities... Not exspecting too much out of the Trac system due to the cheap pads and rotors the previous owner put on, and the fact that the center diff lock does not work right now.
