haha i have yet to do anything too exciting either, unfortunately when I did my rebuild, the girlfriend lost the camera, then when i did the flatbed, well she lost another camera, other than that the truck is still pretty stock.

Well...when your truck becomes yota tech legendary....you can sweet talk the mods into cleaning your whole thread up and making it look like you did it all in a week.

The mods are very tidy here. I swear they even spell check for me...lol

and it's a beast too. i imagine all that damage to the skid plate was from Rausch. assuming that it was in better condition when you out it on.

i'll paint it black at the end.......just gonna have some fun with it 1st......hahahahaha
