    Installed the factory red tow hooks (found them on Fred Anderson Toyota for $75 less due to this site). I have the factory exhaust pipe with the Toyota black extension. Thinking about removing this and put the small one that stays hidden under the truck. Are there any disadvantages to going to route?

    I added the axle dump exhaust from Toyota to my 24 off-road about 3 months ago. Visually I would say it looks more appealing not having the exhaust pipe hanging down. The axle dump exhaust does change the sound of the vehicle to a lower note. Other than that I have experienced no real changes to truck performance.

    I tow a camper so I have added airbags to the rear suspension for leveling truck and trailer. Even though I ran the lines for filling the airbags high up on top of the frame removing the exhaust gives me added peace of mind that there won't be a buildup of heat under the rear section of the truck that could melt lines.

    Thank you for the response and details. Did you purchase yours from the dealer?
