    I know the feeling. I could not of bought what few mods I bought for my truck if I would not of got a warranty refund from the Honda CR-V I traded in. I'm a disabled Veteran who lives from monthly benefit check to the next monthly benefit check. My own fault though. I had my hitch in the Army done and over but dumb ass me had to go sign back up when the troops went in after saddam insane.

    I used some 2x2 aluminum angle and 2 short straps to brace and stiffen.
    I had originally slotted a single 24" long angle to mount differently (from above) but upon execution, didnt like how it looked so I chopped it into smaller pieces and mounted from below. The crossbar in front of the radiator wasnt super sturdy so I added the support straps.
    Now both the mounting bases are sturdy.
    It was a bit of a work in progress... since I had to make the parts at work and bring them home to install.

    Brother look what I just found. These are a better deal than I got.
    I know what you mean though. I fell short of getting just 2 more things for my truck that I really wanted. Was wanting a bed step and a soft fold Extang Trifecta tonneau cover.

    Keep an eye on craigslist.
    I often see Tacoma and 4runner take-offs in my area for $200-$400 a set.

    Correct. I bought 2 sets of practically new 4runner OffRoad wheels for $680 off craigslist and then sold the newer black accent ones for $450. So my set cost me $230. Best place for wheel deals.

    I got lucky and picked up a pair of his first prototypes he made before making changes for production. These will be totally blacked out except the dual switchback halo's. Turn signal blackout sheild, dual projectors and switchback DRL. They will look very similar to my current setup but dual instead of single.
