    Keystoker with a domestic hot water coil sound great. I power wash mine in the Spring and spray it with linseed oil. Works well and it's not expensive. Kuwait sound better 2 me.

    Thanks. I wish I could afford enough equipment, shop, and engeneering help to sell armor. It's about 200# over stock with the winch installed. I wanted it to be much lighter, but I used mostly 1/4 thick material with a hint of 3/13 & 1/8. I've built bumpers for everything I've owned, this one turned out the best.

    Took this home today. Lighter than expected. I was able to lift it into the bed by myself.

    Man, I wish I had drawings, but I deal with weld prints all day at work, so when I do personal projects, I just wing it. It's kinda nice going out to the garage at 1 in the morning to add something that you saw in a dream. If I had drawings, I would definately share. I used 4x4x1/4 square tube for the top part. I also used a lot of cardboard as templates. I may eventually get a print drawn up with dimensions. If I do, I'll start a build thread and include it in there

    Had the dealer deliver it to me at home. :). Did the whole transaction over the phone. Never did that at before, IMHO a much better experience than visiting the dealership.

    So hopefully I won't be stupid this time & will keep Tacoma #4 around indefinitely.

    In my opinion, ProComp is decent but there is better. Depends on what you want though. If you're a prerunner then I would recommend spindles and billstein 5100's. But, if you "you want the best on your baby" then I'd go with an all out LT setup! Only reason I don't have LT is because it's expensive and got other priorities right now. Right now I'm just tryin to save up for some rims that will allow for spindles so I can add those onto my 3" toytec lift.

    Don't you have a TRD OR? Spindles don't work on 4WD.
