    Hate to say it.... but, trail gear.

    Otherwise, when I bought my shit, it was from the dealership since trailgear wasn't around. I paid $300 for it all... but, that was 5 years ago. TG price is $300 too.

    Yea I saw they had them but figured they had to be cheaper elsewhere. I have mixed feelings on trail mart, one hand I hate them but on the other why pay extra for shit like knuckle rebuild kits, sliders and oil pans. Their crawlers and machined parts I will pass on though.

    That's why I was asking I didn't know if anyone here knew of a shop that gives decent deals on factory toyota parts.

    I think trail gear has started stepping up it's products since they first opened.

    In other new I entered my truck into a tractor pull over the weekend. truck with me and all my gear in it is 6200# so I had to pull in heavy class. Still took second place and qualified to pull at the state fair tractor pulls.

    I was able to meet Adam (the owner of WOD) last wheeling trip and he's pretty cool guy that whips out some bad ass stuff. That buggy you posted looks bad ass too!

    On a side note...
