    Has anyone installed power locks and keyless entry on their regular cab? If so, Was it a straightforward install? What system did you use?

    Need door wiring harnesses, door lock actuators, wireless door control receiver, RS3200+ system, key fob and if no connector for the receiver in your main dash harness then a main dash harness

    Interesting, my local audio/tint shop quoted me 300 for a aftermarket viper system with power door locks installed.

    I'd prefer OEM but sounds like aftermarket might be worth saving time and money.

    There is basically three different trims of the RC but they are all 2.7L 4cylinder at least from 2005-2014.
    - 5lug are all open dif 2wd at least from the factory
    - 6lug prerunner
    - 6lug 4x4

    Ive had both an 08 5lug and currently an 11 6lug 4x4

    If it's low it's a 5-lug, that's X-Runners and tacos with skinny tires and without the plastic fender flares that looked like they skipped leg day

    I'm going to talk to the guys at King and probably do it myself. I've re-valved motorcycle forks before, and they told me they are set up the same way. If I was made of money I would have bought the adjusters....

    I finally ordered some armor. I have a steel CBI Moab 2.0 powder coated with the center hoop coming with a steel IFS skid plate too, but living in HI itll take between 8 weeks and 6 months. I just hope it comes before november as I did just enlist into the navy and ship out that month

    1. The Moab bumper? I had a Dakar. CBI makes badass stuff.

    2. What’s your rank in the navy? Thanks for your service. My wife is in the navy and just got deployed a couple months ago.
