    I had a guy cut and weld a bracket/frame thing I guess to my bumper that had a 2"ish hole for some marker lights I got from calranch. They passed inspection so I guess it's good enough.

    I'll do some more research on that method and how to do it.

    I would probably take it to Toyota and have my wallet fucked but it'd hopefully be done right. I've got hopefully until Saturday to figure out which option I'm going to do

    This video was actually pretty helpful, although its for a 4runner, same principle. He uses the pipe method at the end, to give you an idea. Maybe a good idea to have Toyota press everything off, then you can reassemble on your own :notsure:

    Man those wheels are :drool: :drool: :drool:

    Reminds me of stock FJ80 wheels, though SCS prolly does a much better wheel

    Are you going full Icon pack or just AAL?

    Thanks Nate, appreciate it. Yeah, they look so much better in person like everyone says. Even the wife loves them and that's saying something :)

    King coil overs up front, billies in the back, Icon AAL. I think that set up will do nicely for me. Kings are on backorder so just waiting for them to ship.
