What kind of topper is that? It looks eerily like a 4runner topper.

Awesome height and stance; still practical, but aggressive!

Thanks. The topper is made by A.R.E. based out of Ohio, they have a website.

Got my new led tail lights:


The relays come with the lights, you can buy them separately if one of them dies:

Have to wait until night to see how well they work, I like the reflectors for the reverse light, much brighter and the fits is pretty darn good:

Subscribed! Post a link for those tail lights. I might have to get a set of them. Mine are all foggy and my left tail light has a crack in it.

I'll get you a close up of the fit on my truck, hopefully it will give you an idea of how it would fit on yours. The two relays (per light housing) would make quite a bit of noise bonking around the backside of the housing if you leave them just dangling. I used the sytrofoam corners from the packing and duct taped them, works good.

Today I had some time so I finally got around to doing the zuk mod on my truck to get rid of the lame 3" lift blocks. It took me about 3 hours, although I had to wait for my wife to go grab a bottle jack because I couldn't find the shop one. If you have lift blocks, get rid of them, you will not be disappointed, the ride is so much nicer. I didn't take a lot of pictures as there are some very good threads here, I used Phils because he had lift blocks as well, thanks again Yotatechhers'.

shot of the blocks I took out and how much room I needed to get the springs in:

My stock bumper was almost rusted through, I stripped, sanded, filled and painted a smittybilt off my donor truck and finally got it on, it'll do until I get something better:
