    Joints tightened up and feels so much better. Got 5/6, couldn’t do the upper one on the upper link.
    Truck is back at badlands now for a set of tube doors, knuckle ball gussets and some other small things

    Well I may or may not have bought some new seats...

    Right now the idea is to do something like this for now then tie it into a hybrid cage in the future. Figure this will at least give me some protection for now.

    Eventually ill get rid of the second row seats and put in 2 buckets. Also debating on taking out my rear drawers.. it'll save me about 200lbs but so nice to have all my crap organized.

    4x doors, but I did the fill in plates myself. I think I used 14 or 16g for it.

    I love me some 4x innovations. I need new brakes though. Thinking about upgrading to the GX470 rotors and 2010 4runner calipers. Just had a wheel bearing go out on me, I replaced it today.

    In the rear or front for brakes/rotors? For the fronts I thought they are the same as Tacoma’s?

    Yeah pretty cool. You had the EBC ones? I was thinking about those, but found this OEM upgrade.
