    So long as you have a defective bed that Has a gap between the cab, you should be fine.

    There should be enough tolerances to accomodate it.

    You gotta lurk in the 3rd gen forum more often. There are some gems in there.

    Like the current thread in there. I think it's titled Spot Welds.

    I had to hold my tongue.

    The Zr2 thread has more knowledge. Seriously though, that zr2 is sexy. Give it a couple years to prove itself and I may be interested. So glad I got the last 2nd gen taco. Now I'm watching the 3rd gen vs Colorado. GM went all in with that zr2

    This is how I ended up early this morning.

    EF1918CA-36FB-413F-AD55-83EF726143A2_zps_421a9246f6daa1c84f7221b79b404148761c8379.jpg

    I managed to fall in a ditch on my driver side and slammed into a dirt wall. Got a nice dent on my driver side door, but I think the sliders saved the cab.

    And after a rinsing.

    Viar is a good model. Try to go with the heavy duty cycle. The other one works fine but gets super hot. Keep ice on it while running it so it doesnt fry.

    Snappers. Not as bad as it could have been. Those sliders look like took the brunt of it. Score 1 for the sliders. Saved you some serious scratch.

    Good times Ryan. Had fun today. And that was awesome of Chris to show up and lead us through some of those lesser known trails. Had a blast. Oh, and nice job on conquering the steps! That was pretty awesome. Until next time...

    Some spot in Moreno Valley.

    I'll be going to John Bull next Saturday. It's an open invite for anybody with 4x4. A rear locker minimum is ideal.

    Yeah there is /: . If you wana trace down the culprit we can meet up and I'll help u find what the problem is. The system is a closed system with break points so you can break them down and test each sub section.
