Finally installed my rear bumper and created a custom jerry can license plate holder. I was inspired by the look of the 70 series can holder/ license plate that was offered. I still need to finalize the camera relocation and wire the lights.![]()

I kinda dig the Deputy Warren Ferguson shoulder strap look.
Now just paint a black tie in the middle...hehe...
Kidding aside...nice work on the fab!!
Just missed the turn. 200k+ miles and still tight and rattle free.
Major repairs to date: water pump, starter, and radiator.
Super happy with this truck! View attachment 1875752
@Markuson, got her all cleaned up before a local club meeting and started snapping pics at the car wash. I'm sure the people around thought I was crazy.

And yes the shadow side/back light does wonders for hiding the scratches![]()
Did you swap the grill with a black one or black it out your self with plasti dip? Love that black look
Daily Driver:
New valving on the KINGS!, By far the best 200 series I have ever ridden around town and on rough areas. This valving softens the low end compression significantly, especially in the rear. However what I have fixed this time is the the rate of how stiff it gets. In other words how progressive the curve is. With this shim configuration it is a much smoother curve and also softer all around since I have noticed with the previous valving that not all the travel was being used. Now the tires dance around up and down on the gravel. Floats over rocks and washboard even with the KDSS equipped. I also noticed with this revalve even with the KDSS, body roll has increased. This is because the low end compression has been reduced significantly.
Were you not going by the screen name of Therok years ago?
Definitely! Look at the bull bar on the right (with its two heavy, upright supports)...and then look at the FIVE uprights and below-bumper bar in comparison:

Looks ready for an entire herd of bulls...
Edit: Not a T13 on the right. Looks like an ARB with an additional bar added just above the main upper bumper surface. Clearly these guys are expecting major impacts...
