Thanks! I was surprised and happy at the outcome! I'm going to check the clearance and see if I can add a strip the lower door frame as well, just to be extra cautious.
*Edit*
There was clearance, so I went ahead and added the lower strip.

how sturdy do those sliders feel? they look like smaller tubes than other brands that I've seen.
Love the license plate. What part of PA are you from?
I think what you are seeing is an effect of the wide angle lens on my iPhone. The tubing is 2”x .120 DOM. It’s pretty standard for sliders, cages, etc.
Backed it in the garage after driving in the rain and wiped it down. Like brand new!
Scott, you hire out your cleaning service? LolBacked it in the garage after driving in the rain and wiped it down. Like brand new!
Absolutely! But travel expenses can be costly. LOL!!!
We need the rain here, is that included? Quote for services to 89701?
What’s the tailgate button do?

There is a rain shortage so the cost of bringing it with me is sky-high.
Sweet!
Central PA. Mechanicsburg.
Been there. I'm originally from western PA. Ligonier to be specific.
Got my AVID bumper back from the powder coater and installed. Added a plug in for my battery tender.
Test fitting 35’s. In prep I did a CMC and flattened the pinch weld. Then I trimmed the fender in some spots. Lastly, I adjusted the alignment by maxing out the caster as far forward as possible.
so far I have not had any rubbing, but that will be a different story off road. I’ve gone ahead an ordered a set of new front shocks to raise the front a bit more, which should help.
I also upgraded the wheels to the SR8 from SCS. The new set up is about 12 pounds lighter per wheel and tire combo than my 33’s mostly due to the weight of the wheels, but the tires are a bit lighter too.
time for a re-gear!

Rig is looking good.
I got my Victory 4x4 roof rack yesterday, and my son and I assembled it. Today we installed it atop the truck, and I swear the only thing preventing a profanity laced two hours of frustration was him being there helping me. It took a solid 10-15 min to get the first bolt in, about 2 min each for the next 8, and then about an hour and a half for the last one. The threads in the roof holes weren’t the M6 bolt size, so that threw off the first one. Once I figured out the 1/4x20 worked it was a breeze till the last bolt. That sonofagun would NOT go in. Almost cross threaded it several times but caught myself and backed it out. Finally, with a hex drive, a lot of downward pressure, and channel locks, I was able to get that last one in. I absolutely should have bolted on the brackets and THEN put the side rails and cross bars on. It would have saved a ton of frustration.
I wouldn’t have been able to install it without my son’s help, either.
Now I need to get the appropriate foam tape and put the weatherstripping back in. But, it’s late, and I think I deserve a few fingers of whiskey.

Nice wood! What are going to build?Recieved this yesterday
Nice work. Looks great!
what did I do today? well its a little gift for my buddy who has a jeep.... all in good natured fun of course.
The juxtaposition of trying out 4wd and spreading the ashes is quite an interesting coincidence.
These are the terms I was given lol. Needless to say, Tacoma performed flawlessly. My uncle has 800 acres, and it was my step dad's wished to be spread at a pond on the farm.
