Yeah, I check on a bunch of forums; 4Runner, Tacoma, FJ, it doesn’t matter. If I find something I like and the install is different I’ll figure out something!

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

I like the YouTubes for figuring out how others have installed something - good visual reference.

I installed up down air system on my truck this weekend

Nice looking rig! Especially like the rear window! Does that rear rack swing to allow easy access to the rear? Got my trailer hitch receiver installed last weekend and am planning on building a similar rear rack. Would love to see more pics.

Oh yeah, I love You Tube University!!!! Generally you can find anything on it!

Thanks and yes it's a swing out bumper metal tech red eye bumper . It sticks out quite a bit when it's open Definitely gets in the way of my trailer there are a few different swing out bumpers out there

Nevermind that, tell me about that sexy RD1 CR-V in the background! :P j/k
How do you find those clip on mirrors? Do they help with technical driving? I've been seeing a lot of them around lately and I was wondering.

Added custom airbag system to the rear end of the rig to help support the extra weight when towing the Adventure Trailer. Worked out great during our trip to the Arizona Strip traveling through a good 40 miles of deep sand.

Looks great!

Nothing crazy today. I installed a Warn winch guard, originally I had the Mopar guard but it was too tight against the winch for my liking. I also installed the tailgate reinforcement bracket and over sized spare tire mount gizmo. After taking that 35" tire off and on about 4 times I am definitely reconsidering 37s. 
Also installed my CB antenna mount

Made brackets to hold Quickfists for a shovel and axe. I had to move the tie down rings to the lower holes and because these are Silverado rings instead of Colorado rings the plate is square instead of rectangular so it was too long (vertically) to sit flat against the wall. I had to trim off 1/2" off the bottom. The alignment of the tools isn't how I'd like it but I'll adjust them after or during my Moab trip once I see how all my gear fits.
I replaced the worn velcro straps on my RTT. The VELCRO wasn't holding anymore and on my last camping trip I had to place zipties around the straps to keep them in place.

Great work, I changed out the strap on my RTT as well. I’m going make a similar mount set-up for a shovel & axe, but it will attach to my hi-lift. What did you use for the brackets, or did you cut them to size?Made brackets to hold Quickfists for a shovel and axe.

Well... just when you think you're done... I decided to go ahead and install my Dominion Off-road Hi_Lift jack mount and I wanted to see how I liked her with a stubby front bumper.Nothing crazy today.

I also ordered a Rock Krawler 2.5" X Factor System - TT Lift Kit and some Pro Comp 32 Series Bandido, 17x9 Wheels

I _like_ the use of space for your hi lift - been pondering what I could stuff up near the roof in mine. Stumbled on three coat hanger doo-dads that cam with my Jeep and maybe using them to hang a bungee net to stuff some loose stuff into... I am pondering lift kits but am pretty bewildered by the choices available - any advice and/or sales pitch why you went with the Rock Krawler? Thanks!Well... just when you think you're done...
