that's cool! so basically your high is extra height mode and normal is your high mode? how did you accomplish?
OF COURSE!!
We removed the air filter box and replaced it with a CAI so we can fit a second battery. I'm not super excited about the CAI, but we'll work with it for now.
What kind and where did you get from?
We got a AirRaid CAI Airaid UBI Universal Air Intake System
Almost all of my body damage has been caused by trees/roots. I keep dreaming about installing a bull bar and then those goofy connecting bars that go from the bull bar to the sliders to protect the fenders. All this should be cheaper than having to replace the fenders all the time.

An ARB bumper and those tube things will not help you if you are getting damage like that. ARB bumpers will and do flex quite a bit and be pushed into your fenders and I do not believe those tubes are for much more than brush deterrents.
This is a major bummer. I just ordered an ARB bull bar and was looking at the ARB side rails. So are you saying that those rails aren't able to take a hit? And they could be damage multiplier like those light weight brush guards?

Why do people hate on the 20” wheels? Not so good for rock crawling is my guess. Great for mall crawlin’ thoPainted my 20" tundra wheels black, 35s, with my 2" spacers

In my opinion, damage multipliers. ARB is a nice bumper, but I would consider it one that you go beating on, I had one years ago, bent into fenders from some rock contact. I am going by your pictures, you need heavy duty stuff.

why not hit up a local shop, this was done locally, I get he could weld you up something for the hundy
Major!!
Even the bumper itself bent into the fenders? What is even stronger than ARB? Slee Blueberry?
yeah, no rock crawling for me.....only sand and dirt
The ARB is fine, but no, I wouldn't want to drop nose-first on to it. I've run mine into a rock wall at pretty low speed and it just scratched the coating (didn't mean to). But, if you're going to be hitting sturdy things hard and at speed, I'm sure it can give. One benefit of the ARB, from what I can tell vs others, is the space between the bars and the body. There's a decent gap, you'd have to hit pretty fricken hard to push them in that far. The side rails I'm sure would bend it way more easily.
I took my 100 glamping.
No pics right now because it's cold and dark and I'm in the camper.
So does anyone know if the vacuum ine on top of the transfer case is a breather or if the diff lock is vacuum actuated (and electric) like earlier models? I'm getting 12V at the switch on the case but the vacuum hose is missing - wondering if this is why it won't engage
I am not sure I understood your question. The transfer case is in the center of the truck and has its own breather. The center locker is all electric.
Factory rear diff lock is in the back of the truck (on rear axle) and is only electrically actuated. There is a small breather tube coming out of the locker (right next to the locker harness). This breather is for the locker only. There is a completely separate breather tube on the top of the rear differential that is not related to any lockers and is on all trucks regardless of whether they have a rear locker or not.
Ok thanks, yes its the centre diff lo k. Getting 5v on the switched pin instead of 0V so maybe a bad ground somewhere
About to start and hopefully finish this today
