    You just spent thousands of dollars and hours on your front end. Don’t tell me you don’t have time to chop your dangling pipe. :anonymous: Pretty sure I’d even hit mine if it wasn’t trimmed and I don’t even have a shock relocation. #jealous

    Is your brute force rear normal “depth”? As in... did you have it trimmed to fit 35’s or is that the normal length?

    Normal length right now - Haven’t trimmed it yet since I’m getting new flares soon since mine keep ripping off. Once I get new flares and cut them, I’ll trim the bumper!

    Is Jim Bob making one for you? Lol. Let’s see... not a Flippac, not a GFC, not a shell... light weight... so not a Khaya...

    I guess a Drifter?

    I’ll have to wait for the reveal.

    Sick. I just ordered a HC rear bumper and @SOS CONCEPTS is trimming the ends 2” for me because I’ll trim my fenders about 2”-3” for my next tires anyway. Have you ever kissed that bumper with the rear tires stuffed?

    Drifter, drifter, drifter! You canceled the GFC order twice now so you need a Drifter.

    I'm going on month 2 since placing my Drifter order. Definitely a long process, but allows me to save up the money for the second half of the payment when taking delivery.

    Drifter is too small width wise for me - I don't like sleeping in anything smaller than 50" in all honesty. I had a hardshell tent which was 48" and it was just crammed with 2 people.

    Not to mention way too expensive haha.

    Gotta sell the Tacoma and get a Tundra with a Vagabond Nomad. :p

    I had a Medium Autohome with a 54" wide mattress. It was roomie but I was too tall for that tent. I think the length for me is more of a prioity than the width in a RTT/camper.

    Anything more than a 48" mattress width the camper/RTT will stick out passed the lines of the Tacoma. Which a lot of people do not like because of its looks.
