Stick with Toyota. Maybe put some gussets on there. They are both 8" differentials.

I haven't checked prices but I've run rancho shocks before and have been happy with them, might be worth checking out.

She likes the truck. I'm kinda glad. I gotta get her something thats an auto tho. She hates not driving. I'm also gonna draw up a roof rack and front/back bumpers and have a buddy weld it up for me.

Have also been thinking of adding a stove to it. Back passenger side. Run the flu out the top. Little fan on the duct to pull everything up. Idk yet. Iv got a little stove. Maybe the size of 2 shoeboxes. Just thought. Lol

Took my skid plate off this morning so I could replace my steering stabilizer. Come to find out I have a pro comp on there now. Looks dirty but not beat up.

Should I replace it? I have a skyjacker new in box.

Edit: and I'm missing a bolt for my skid plate. What size are they?

A good skid is a good skid. Can you return the new one for full refund? Or just give it to me. I will make sure it gets used.

I got it in a trade so no refund is available. Lol

If your local I'd trade it to you for stuff but I doubt you are.

Is the skyjacker better then the pro comp?

Homeless. If I sell we can get a week let place for long enough till my wife gets her first check. And a beater car,probably Honda, or a bus pass.

But it needs to be gone. Soon.
