    I got these after I came back from Moab with some damage. The diff looks good for now, if you nail your tire placement the diff is in a "safe" spot.

    Installed the AVS bug deflector, mostly in hopes it will help deflect dirt/small rocks when my friends decide to pitch it sideways in front of me while off roading :burnrubber:. Fit was great, had to close the hood pretty firmly, but otherwise happy with it!

    that looks like a solid skid. Keep it hosed out and clean though…I can imagine hidden rust. Especially since this is where you see a lot of 4runners rusted out.

    I did have few scrapes down there that I painted before installing these. We don't see much rust here in Colorado but will keep an eye on it!

    Yes, I have the low profile AVS guards on the windows, really like them, very (VERY) low profile, perfect fit, definitely recommend them!

    Had these little 7" light bars sitting around and figured why not, fit pretty nice in the upper grill. Ordered the wrong switch though and have to wait for it. 20220119_125601.jpg

    I have a set of locks that came off my ‘22 Pro that are black if you want them. Shoot me an offer shipped. They came off with only 1k miles.

    How did this turn out? DO they put out a lot of light? Do you have any "action pics" of these in the wild?

    Pinstripes, lots of em. Plus a couple dents.
    Dang it - that's going to cost some $.

    Not yet, Like I said, I ordered the wrong switch, unfortunately they won't be here until the Jan 25th - 27th, I'll update you when it's complete. Or maybe if I have time, I can run them directly to battery and snap a few pictures.

    Sorry, it happens. I would pull the fender off and replace it myself. Those front fenders comes of easily. Probably 10 10mm bolts. Good luck. SmartSelect_20220121-071837_Google.jpg

    100% would have had the same damage. Can't help these stupid drivers in Colorado Springs. They are the worst. Don't want a full bumper. I would have to re-do my suspension plus I am trying to keep the runner as sleek as possible to try to save what gas mileage I have left. This will at least give me a good starting point on re-doing the viper cut with the TSO High Clearance wings.
