Looks awesome! You rarely see a stack on a Yota. When you do, it's some giant ugly thing they put on to make it look like a diesel. Yours is tastefully done.

Why would you swap the factory Aisin hubs for Mile Markers? I could see MAYBE putting on Warn Premiums, but not Mile Markers. Their winches are great, but their locking hubs are just god-awful. I think you should rebuild the Aisins and put them back on.

Well as for the hubs, I was missing one of the Aisins completely, and I bought the mile markers before learning about how they were junk, yea, stupid me haha. I plan on getting a pair of aisins again soon

I like the build, what program did you use to design the bed? I was thinking about building one myself.
