Wheelskins cover, looks way better than the old leather. Take your time with the stitching and heating the leather or doing it on a hot day makes it go on and cover over much better.

New stereo. Traded up from an old Alpine DVD unit that had some screen flicker that was making me nuts to a Pioneer that has full iPod controls as well as Bluetooth phone and streaming. So nice.

Finally got around to greasing the outer CV's today. Used Red Line 80401 CV-2 Synthetic Grease. Ordered @pfran42 clamp kit. Looks like the outer boots had been replaced as they dont match the ones already there. Next weekend i plan on re-indexing TB's and possibly put in new OME 2865's. :beer:
 
Removed my resonator today. I can't notice any difference in the sound. The exhaust is now tucked up higher under the bumper.

No difference in loudness from stock.
 
I pulled out an old Smitty rear tire awning I used with a Land Rover I had. I modified it to attach to my rack. It was like $60 when I bought it, takes 3min at best to set up, might be an option for those that don't want to drop big money on an awning.

Most of the time what I build for myself is not liked by others. But, this front and rear bumper are quite opposite. I've gotten several inquiries on both.

Time will tell.

How much for your templates? :)
 
This is the only after market bumper I've seen that I think looks really good plus functional. Great job.

Thanks for the kind words. I try to build products that are good for all variations of use and that will last as long as your rig does. After all, these are cruisers and the armor should be indicative of that.

Well that would be scribbles on my welding table...

@LS1FJ40 has seen this in action. I just transfer ideas to the work bench with chalk and start cutting and shaping...

Makes sense since you weren't planning for production.
 
Removed running boards from the 2007 LC. Anyone know what this is?

I've searched a bit and looked at some diagrams and haven't been able to figure it out. Don't have this on our 2004 LX. It has two bolts holding it to the frame.

Rear bumper upgrade, Sierra run, chopped off the hanging ugly resonator. New rear springs needed -- need to decide between 2863's and 2864's or slee heavies
