That's pretty impressive!
You turned the truck around and took a picture of the other side!
Those are nice looking wheels! I wish they had a little higher weight rating... 1797 lb/wheel is a little on the low side IMO. Your 80 doesn't look heavy, but I know there are many, many 80's rolling around that would max out that wheel capacity (7188 lbs total for 4 wheels) and then some.
I've had mine for like 3 years, lots and lots of miles and they still look like new. Absolutely love them in all conditions.

Enjoyed the brutal Florida winter by doing a bit of camping and a bit of kayaking on the Suwannee River:

We only did a small section from Convict Spring to Royal Spring as our primary goal was to scuba dive. Caught a tow back upstream from some awesome locals as the day was getting late.
Someone here will have a hitch for sale cheap.

Not a weekend, just going to tear off the driver side birf and to my surprise find this. Can you spot the problem here?
His insurance company is going to cover the damaged parts etc on my truck. I hit a deer years ago and my insurance company gave me a check to cover damages. I got an estimate from the local Toyota dealer for the repairs and am waiting to hear back from insurance. Maybe, just maybe, I can get a bumper made for the truck and ditch the hitch completely. Not fraudulent, just using the money how I see fit.
I'd recommend double-check that frame for tweaking. Local body shop here showed me a $10K repair on a new F150 due to a minor collision directly into the receiver hitch that bent the frame.
Thats to bad, thats some really expensive body damage. If the tail lamp bucket looses its seal the quarter panel will fill with water and mud and rust out the quarter panel fyi.I'm a weekend behind on posting this.
Took my new ride out to the trails @ AOP. Did OK except for a rock and a tree. Guess it could be worse.

Then I took both axles out to get balanced, chasing a driveline vibration that's driving me nuts. They both needed a fair amount of weight, vibrations are better but still there.

While it never a bad idea to check here is a Subaru that hit my parked cruiser last year. Needed an alignment but frame is fine.
Edit - rear bumper, though.
Looks like that rusted receiver bent pretty easily.

Yes, that hitch had no strength and needed to be replaced anyway.
I have it fixed temporarily.
Later in the month I'll head to my cousin's shop and we'll finish bending it out properly. This was just a few minutes with a 2x4 and a mallet.
Headed out to Moab for the annual guys trip with a few friends from high school. A lot of snow this year that added a layer of fun to the trails. Big thank to @Nay for being the tour guide. After that I headed from Moab to Jackson Hole. Big thanks to @Box Rocket for some recommended camping options along the way up from Moab and @NateMob for hooking me up with a 5 star place to stay.
There has been some progress!
