    Yeah that's the one. Call them and talk to Marie. For about 50 bucks more you would get a way better kit than that rancho kit. Up to you though...

    If they are the adjustable damping shocks and they offer the incab remote, I suggest you get it. I really though mine was useful on a Jeep I had it installed on. You can really dial in the ride for the conditions. After some use, you'll know pretty well what setting you'll want as the terrain changes.

    I've run the Rancho RS9000 adjustable shocks on my Jeep. I would suggest getting something else. Also, the "adjustability" of them isn't even noticeable. Felt like the exact same ride from the firmest setting to the softest setting.

    If you were responding to me, I don't know what my rack is, I bought it at an equipment sale and it turned out it was a three piece and like 2 feet came out of the middle and it collapsed Down to the perfect size. I can put my spare up there but my spare looks like shit haha, I will add a picture. My brackets are elbow hinge brackets. I will add photos of those too

    No mods whatsoever!
    I agree. I ran rears only. Not much change after adjustment, and they rusted within a year and looked like crap.

    Spent some time at our camp and decided to get my crossbars cut to fit and drilled to mount. Finishing up the rest of my bike racks for it today.

    I started weather proofing my bed so on dusty trails it doesn't get super dirty since I sleep back there. I took out the storage bins and glued plexiglass over the drainage holes and slots for the hooks and locks. It's pretty slick.
    Also got an Expedition One bumper, OME suspension, and Pelfrybilt rear bumper. About to attach my Rigid lights to the rear bumper, which fit perfectly.
    Anybody know how the hell I'm supposed to install a winch here?

    So far I've added an Advance folding bed cover and since removed it. Gave it to my son in Maine, he has an 05 2wd. GT perfect fit seat covers. Weathertech floor mats and window vent visors. Waag center brush/grill guard. Hose clamp tailgate mod. Turned off the seat belt chime. Added Ultra-Gauge. Trailer hitch. Softopper. Replaced sun visors with slide out style. Toyota bed extender. Had Firestone Destinations and now Michelin LTX AT2 in stock size. More mods to come; Fog lights, locking storage in bed, intermittent wipers. Now looking for Radio/HU upgrade. and maybe a lift way down the road.
    Replaced cabin air filter. Did I wait too long ? Also added grid it and stick on pocket in glove box to clean it up a bit. Still need to organize it a bit more.

    It's a nice looking set up! The unfortunate part is that you'll have to remove the bumper to put a winch in.

    LOL yes, even at 4k miles my cabin filter shows a lot of dirt on it. But then it depends on your area. Dusty area= dirty filters quicker.

    I knew I went to long. Just a long list of crap to do. I've never had one that bad before so I better get another ready for fall.

    I feel like I'm going to remove the grill and probably cut those pieces out? I think it will be structurally sound without them.

    It may not seem like another thing you want to do but it will be much easier to install and will have a much cleaner look.
