    rear mud flap

    My girlfriend has a 2008 SR5. I took off her rear mud flaps for aesthetic purposes. When i removed it, it looks as if the rear flaps serve to connect the rear bumper to the rear wheel well. So i am thinking about cutting off the portion that extends down and then reattaching it. Are all the...

    extended range fuel tank

    The FJ is a little different bc the spare tire is mounted on the rear hatch. there is one available in steel that's 31 gallons. I haven't found anything for the Prado that's available in the United States

    so jbstrd when is your bumper supposed to arrive? Funny story about shrockworks. I like everyone else was waiting forever for mine. I must have installed it about 2 years ago. It finally shipped via freight after the delivery production dates had been pushed back twice. So damn anxious to...

    caddywhompus rear axle

    when i get this SOB back together and aligned i will do a nice write up. The holes not lining up with the stock rear trailing links(lower) is what started this fiasco. It will be rock solid when i work the kinks out. I always have to go where there is no path and leave a trail instead of just...

    2014 LED tail lights

    Ya I am replacing all the bulbs anyways. I usually install with gloves to keep skin oil off then wipe down with alcohol swab. I got rear ended in a parking lot last summer and tail light has been cracked. So replacing both sides with the LED set up and new bulbs
