    You can find them on Amazon. It says not to run an hid kit on them BUT if you were to do so they run H2 bulbs. I'm sure a 5k bulb won't hurt.

    That V-dub is pretty sic. I can't say I wouldn't be seen in that cause I would definitely want to be seen in it.

    Thanks dude. More to come eventually, just at a good stopping point for now.

    I'll be headed back to AZ next weekend for my girlfriend's birthday. Friday is pretty much open to w/e, Saturday is the birthday bash, Sunday is a mod/repair day for the 'dog.

    Items up for work are a cab mount chop, lowering the front coils to level out, repairing the output seal on the third member, and taking some measurements for an idea I have that won't be posted up here until the CAD is finished...maybe I've said too much already :spy:

    Anyways, if anyone want to hang out and shoot the shit, shoot some shit, and drink beer HMU. I'm looking to make the most of this four day since it'll be another long while till I visit again. As far as doing any wheeling it won't be happening because I've determined all modding will have to be done all at one time. Visit that build thread for updates. Laters.

    They are pretty stout. Great road manners and have handled everything I've thrown at them so far. Are you about to the pull the trigger on some?

    I've been on the fence with Fox and Kings, and i've seen these new Icons...so I'm torn between them all. I've been doing alot of research. and looking alot of them online. they are all neck and neck. but kinda leaning towards the fox. but who knows

    Neither will let you down. I have foxes on the other truck. They're nice, and have taken a similar beating to that of the Icon's. The Icon's by far have better road manners.
    I will not support starbucks :p
    Thanks man. Yup. Two trucks. Two different purposes.
    Sure am. Almost done w/ it too.

    It does what it has to do. I love it. It would be nice to go LT but it's not for me. This truck does exactly what I need it to do so there is no need for extra. Just need to get those Deaver's.
    Your set up is perfect dude. Stocky build type look.

    Gonna be nice to come home after only a 3 day work week. Been looking at rear bumpers all day today. I almost want to make a move but at 500+ dollars it's not worth is right now.

    Well now that I got both my bitches here this one can get some tlc. Things that need to get done:
    1)Spark plugs
    2)Weld the exhaust flange shut since it doesn't want to cooperate and seal right.
    3)Cut more of the cab mount to clear my tires.
    4)Purchase/install either AAL or full leaf pack.
    5)Lower front end to level it with the back and get an alignment...again.
    6)Prep the front glass, grille, bedside plastic, and tailgate for paint, and then paint.
    7)Fix the rear main seal and pinion seal leaks.
    8)Take it to Toyota for an over priced but well worth reconditioning.
    9)Finally step back, sit down, and stare at her because she'll finally be done...I can't say that with a strait face.
    10)Get on TW and start looking at rear bumpers.
    11)FML.
