Ok moving on... The previous owner put on the wildlife killing gaurd and headache rack. The headache rack doubed as a great point to mount four Pro Comp 5x7 lights and if I ever get around to it some mounts for a tire carrier, high lift, jerry cans etc.

I also needed somthing in the rear and one day at my favorite junk yard found a hitch off a '98 Tacoma. I figured since it bolted together I could just have some new side brackets made, but low and behold it worked perfect as is:


However, with my new 63" rear springs the side brackets would not clear the shackels. So I had to have some custom made, ugly since they were not painted at the time of the picture but they worked and tucked the hitch up higher:
