    my clear coat is starting to peel

    Are any of you close to an airport or leave your runner there for any periods of time? The settling of jet fumes will definitely kill your clear coat. :rain:

    Peppy's build thread

    with your xpods did you use an L bracket or the clamp style? Or did you have to fab something up yourself? I know you were a little stumped about the mounting and directing of the pods last time we spoke. Love the look

    Need Advice: Rear Window Mount Broke Due to Rust & Rot

    Is that link you provided where you bought the assembly from? I believe that's what happened to my 4runner too. I'll have to open it up to see when it gets warmer. Did you think that it would be too much of a hassle to attempt to do it yourself?

    Bright Headlights - too bright?

    I also wonder if you have a leveling kit? It wouldn't be as noticeable as a proper lift but that would bring the front end up a bit and cause the adjustment to be out. Just a thought.

    wax stripper?

    I'll definitely be clay barring it. After playing in the bush I've got some new pinstripes. I've had to do a couple washes to get it clean again. I figured before winter and while it's still nice out I'd try to get most of the wax off first, then clay bar, then wax and polish again. thanks...

    wax stripper?

    I'm looking for a wax stripper to take the old wax off the runner. I've heard a regular dish soap will do just that, but to what extent? Wondering if anyone knows about a dedicated product for doing this? I have used a product that was made by Diamond Kote, I think it was called diasol...
