It will split daily duty with the 60 and an old bmw. When i set out to buy a 55, i'd planned on using it primarily for semi-serious, off-road, and recreational use. The 60 is a bit too clean for serious trail / rock duty, so my thinking was, based on what I was seeing available, that i'd get a 55 that was rough around the edges that i wouldnt feel too terrible about beating up some. And then i found this one. Too clean IMHO to bash and dent on challenging trails, so my thinking is that it will see camping use, daily use, and mild trail and off-road duty.
is there a badge on the grill?
If you don't have/can't find the license plate lights, I got some at Pep Boys that look ALMOST identical and mount very similar.
The factory steel wheels would look quite nice with some 33x10.5 BFGs. Just my 0.02

There is a RAC (Royal Automobile Club) badge on the grill that i've just left there. I did buy some 55 lights on ebay that are a little rough, but they were all i could find. WOuld be interested in the Pep Boys alternates if they look good.
As to the wheels, i prefer the non stock, wider look that the broader wheels provide. Just think the truck lands better on the wider base. Understand the opinion to the contrary however.
I understand the want to stay with OEM parts, but the dimensions were almost identical with the pep boys lights. I did have to drill one hole for one of the mounting studs. It was off just a bit. And the housings are plastic vs. metal (but they won't rust)
It's odd that you can buy from Toyota, the older style that bolts to the bottom and the newer style is gone.

Sitting behind the computer, they look similar. It's been years since I bought them, and the package is long gone.
I don't THINK they were Reese, but again, it's been years.
