    Negative, the rad rubber designs ones. They’re holding up really well.

    Skip the bull bar; they're damage multipliers.

    Looks nice!

    Don't forget to snap this cable back into the bracket. Too tight of a radius like shown in your pick is not a good thing for cable function/wear.

    Looks like you may need to rotate the bracket to get good alignment.

    There was a mildly lifted second gen coming up without sliders asking me about the trail, I know he could make the top but he asked if it got harder and I let him know damage was possible. Not sure what he did. Another guy had a brand new 4Runner and he asked the same, I think he was gonna hike the last few miles.

    It’s not hard I don’t think I slipped a tire at all, but no way I would do that trail without armor.

    It helps knowing it’s not my daily driver anymore!

    I ordered a set of those on April 4th, got a order confirmation, but that's it. How long did it take you to get them?

    If I’m trying to tighten my seat belt buckle do I need to remove my center console and the side panel of the seat or is that not necessary?

    Do you think an ARB bull bar could take a cow at 50 mph?

    I’ve never seen a cow hit. I vaguely remember a thread on here w an arb and it caved but don’t know the speed. I would cry if a cow ran in front me and wrecked my shit.

    If I had to buy again, I’d go with these easy. They’re pretty stout, and serves the purpose.
