so you're saying instead of powdercoating, I should get them painted instead, and then touch as needed, and use Rustoleum Rust Reformer as needed? So if I get just regular steel not powerdercoating, I would need to get them painted right to prevent rust?

This is great feedback on a topic I have no knowledge in. My main focus is protection so if SS might be weaker when hitting a rock hard, then carbon steel is more desirable for what I am looking for.

I see a couple of promo codes online and see that now and again they have sales around BF. I wish they would do another group buy like they did back in 2020, which was for 200/201 series Cruisers.

That's what I am leaning towards. The full stainless steel package powder coated black. Mainly for ease of use for oil changes, from feedback from others, it provides more coverage than other brands, and the stainless aspect will help prevent long term rust. Yes, it's a lot more money but added...

This wasn't listed on that page with all the various companies and products. But I just looked at their package for 3/16" steel black powdercoated and added the gas thank and it comes out to roughly $1,250 shipped which is pretty great deal. Do you have any issues with doing oil changes? I...

just saw that video posted on reddit, dude is very smart about this stuff and a great resource. Im trying to figure how my current rims would affect my tire size. The approach angle is why I did and also some parts of my tire would rub, which is why I was hoping if anyone else had done a trim...

I figure since Im not doing a lift any time soon, it's better to have steel instead of aluminum as I will be banging on them more often. I've heard on steel, rocks slide whereas with aluminum, it will gouge into the metal. I've read from people that they wish they had steel plates, at least for...

Hi yall, I recently trimmed the front bumper on my 23 GX and was wondering if I can now fit bigger tires. I trimmed about 2 inches to bring the line to the bottom of the grill. Currently I have 265/70/17 Wildpeaks At 3 on OEM TRD Pro wheels. I had to change out the bolt and do a little message...

Hey yalls, recently took my 2023 Luxury with off-road package, so have some factory plates, on a trail and they got a little beat up so looking a complete skid plate system. I don't plan to lift or maybe a modest lift in the future but for now no plans so I am looking for stainless steel for...

Bringing this thread back to ask how much articulation/movement the rear KDSS sway moves on and off road. After about 9k miles on my current tires, I decided to see if I can fit one in the spare now after 9K miles worth of driving. To my surprise, I was able to get it to fit, with about a...

the rear temp feels even more lukewarm compared to the front. I am going to take to the dealership in the next couple weeks and have them check the air temp at the vent using their tools and have them do a full system check to make sure there isnt any leaks or something else that could be...

Hey Arailt, I took it to a shop so im not exactly sure what it's called unfortunately

that's what I believe as well. it feels coldish when my hand is close to the vent but it doesnt have enough cooling power to cool the rest of the car. My temp gauge is pretty accurate because when I have it in my apartment, it pretty closely matches what I have my nest thermostat reads, within...

I had them change the compressor, but the dealership system were down during those few days they had my car and I don't know if I somehow got lost in the shuffle. They were supposed to change the little foam pad that is on the rear bumper by the tab to get to the spare tire. They damaged it on a...
