    I think you could run the OEM 70 series Toyota tag holder, light assembly on the swing out. Just need to extend the wires and route them. Different bumper, but I have the same ding on my door from the spindle 😂

    Yes, that's what I'll do once I find a gas can holder to mount it to.

    This is a 70 series tag holder. I have a spare if you want it.

    Got one side on. I need to figure out what Jerry can holder I'm going to run and also how to mount a light for the license plate. Yes, I freaking dinged the right hand door on the damn swing arm pivot. Ugh.

    I also took the time to paint the rear hubs. Open-end lug nuts are on order to replace the splined nuts.

    I was having some bad rubbing issues with the 285 tires on Smooth Vintque 16x7 wheels with 4" backspacing and noticed a post by @wngrog 'mentioning that he had the same setup and used spacers in the back. He said that they weren't necessary in...

    Thanks and ya I was surprised too, but for the 17" rim there is only the 315/70 for KO3's and they are load range 'F'. - matt

    Those Nomad wheels look great with your stripes! I'm surprised about the wheel/tire weight. I figured it would be a little lighter than that.

    Some parts arrived these past couple days. My decals arrived from Australia as well, so i spent the day applying that with a friend. Need to adjust the front door up a couple millimeters, but overall managed to line it up pretty well.

    Rims arrived prior to some other parts so off I went looking for tires. After some basic measurements and thanks to the mystery lift I knew I could fit 35's. The only problem, the first few places I looked to for either a set of KO3's or AT4W's...

    Well I've been pretty uninterested with posting progress these days, but had a few minutes to update.... So far the truck now has 35s on OEM steelies with 2" spacers. At some point I will put 80 rear rotors and hubs to poke the rear out some...
