Removing my arb rack because it was installed incorrectly and had been leaking. The plastic retention bolts were broke off and are floating in the headliner. Argh. Anybody wanna buy a 2 year old alloy arb rack?
Weird, different number than what I found here.

yeah it is the same thing and i paid $70.
Where did you get the plate to mount the dial in? I just dremeled the plate out. Yours is much cleaner!
Just ordered. Thank you! I'm pretty sure that wasn't available when I put mine in a earlier this spring. That would of saved 20 minutes with the dremel tool!

Upgrades are coming.
Anyone have a recommendation for an ARB rear bumper installer near Dayton or Columbus OH? I went to a Toyota dealership and they looked at me like I was insane. Any help would be appreciated - I just moved this way, so still getting acquainted with the options in the area.
Been a while since I've posted, super busy summer. Hit 75k on the odometer, and joined the airbag club. It wasn't that bad of an install, but I'm getting to old old to climb under these trucks. I have a nice bruise on my forehead to prove it, that pic is not included.
Here's to no, or very little sag towing. Thanks to @linuxgod for the detailed info in his towing with a 200 thread.

Whoa. You need to get some Fluid Film under that thing pronto.

It's really not that bad. It's interesting and has been discussed on mud before, but the later model Toyotas have been suffering corrosion something like the old Toyotas of yesteryear (did I spell that correctly?).
Now, if you want to talk about rust, how about my late 60's early 70's Detroit steel that lived in the rustbelt. Considering we didn't have cell phones or digital cameras, and film cost $$$ to develop, I don't have any pics. But I'm just not that concerned with what is surface rust on solid bits of steel. The body has ZERO rust and I'm happier than a pig in s*** when I recall having to weld in floorboards on a 10 year old car in the past.
Now that you've brought it up, the OCD part of me starts to ponder crawling under that damn truck with a wire brush!

Spent the last couple of days on this:
Words can't describe how shiny this truck is right now.
Washed twice, clayed, washed again, polish, enhancer, glaze... All with Zaino products.
Road trip to northern Vermont tomorrow for a wedding, crashing in the truck for the night.

I’m taking off my KO2s and putting my highway tires back on. Hopefully a little less noise, a little better fuel economy, and less wear on the KO2s.
While it is only 82 degrees outside, it is about 90% humidity and I’m dying.
I’ve got my 4 highway tires on. Now I need to replace the spare, put the KO2s back in the basement, and check tire pressure. But in the meantime, I’m recovering in the AC for a while.

There's no "hopefully" about it - less noise, better gas mileage, shorter braking distance, faster acceleration, overall better driving performance.
Of course, we all know that the second we put on the larger, off-road tires, right?
IMO the stock 170#/in springs are way too soft for towing anything more than a popup or small turtleback, unless you're by yourself. Even with my 240#/in rears the airbags make a big difference leveling the truck with my trailer. Of course my tongue weight is almost 800# now...

I’ll be putting them back on in December, as I think the K02s probably do better in the snow than my highway tires. Those K02s are heavy and I don’t relish the idea of manhandling them several times per year.
