Just ordered my B.A.M.F. sliders with a kickout! Going to test fit Jerry's rear diff skid as well and order one! I believe we have the same 8" rear as the locked tacos so it should fit just fine!

Not yet, still deciding on the Toytec or RB. Probably gonna order tomorrow or the next. How was installing the Toytec? Did you install the steering spacer?

My LR uca's are sitting at my PO box waiting for me to install them!

Dude I can't wait to put it on. I just can't decide what accessories to add to it first, the spare tire mount, axe and shovel mount or what....

Since your mpg's suck, I'd go with the tire first. then axe/shovel followed by hil-lift. But you might use the axe or shovel before your spare in your line of work!

Your picture provides a great opportunity to show where I was worried about rubbing.



The red circled corner tucks into the green circled notch and almost rubs. I have had a few opportunities to flex & somewhat rapidly cycle the suspension and so far so good with no trimming.
