    Slope Meter/Tilt Meter/Inclinometer

    The other day I drove up a dirt road that had a couple of sections that I swear were at more than a 45 degree angle. Of course, the lay of the land could have been playing tricks with my eyes. I would like to purchase some kind of gauge that tells me what the angle of the slope is that I'm...

    I would like to install some rock sliders: how to?

    I have a 2013 with running boards that I just bought about three weeks ago. I would like to take off the running boards and add rock sliders. I suppose this is doable by one person and a jack, but any input on it would be appreciated. I also heard there was a skid plate or something that needs...

    Trimming so tires fit

    I don't know how to post pics here. It's asking for links to the pics and I'm not storing any in the cloud etc. However, it's inside both fenders in front of the tires. They rub on the inside front of the tire when I turn either right or left. I just got some new shocks and struts and then an...

    10-13 SR5 Trimmed rocker panels without sliders? Pics?

    Resurrecting this post, but I am a novice at mods. I would like to remove my running boards, but I don't have enough money right now to put on rock sliders. What's this trimming of the rockers I'm reading about here?

    Trimming so tires fit

    I just purchased this 2013 a couple of weeks ago. I wanted some new wheels and tires. I listened to someone on Facebook about trimming some of the plastic away underneath, inside the fenders because after getting new tires and wheels, I had a lot of rubbing when the wheels were turned all the...

    Just purchased: 2013. Suspension tips needed

    I just bought this 2013 sr5. Actually, I don't pick it up until Thursday this week. I have test driven it and I loved it except for one thing--there was a little side to side roll and bounciness that I didn't really love. I read about doing a Bilstein 6112/5160 set up and I am thinking about...

    2000 with vibration issues

    A couple of months ago I had noticed a vibration coming from my front end, or at least it seemed like it. Since I was planning to buy new tires in January, I sped up the purchase thinking that the vibration may be coming from the old tires being out of balance etc. The vibration issue has...

    Installed new after market front bumper. Need load resistors installed.

    So I just had a new bumper installed and now I need to install some load resistors for the rapid blink issue caused by switching to LED lights. The questions I have are where to install them and which wires to connect them to. Also if you have done this job, where did you mount the resistors...

    I need a new bumper for 2000

    What do you think about just going to a local 4x4 company and buying the bumper from them? That is, if I wanted to hire out the installation? It may cost a bit more for the bumper itself, but maybe cheaper or no cost for shipping? Thoughts on that?

    I need a new bumper for 2000

    Awesome! That does look like a job I can handle provided I can get the bolts off!

    I need a new bumper for 2000

    In the picture are the frame rails you're referring to what I'm seeing basically at the bottom corners of the radiator? Also, did you paint it yourself? I'm also a bit worried that I won't be able to get the old bumper off--or maybe halfway off and have to call a professional due to corrosions...

    I need a new bumper for 2000

    Looks nice! Did it come with good instructions on how to install? I'm not afraid of doing some work myself, but extensive precise cutting and definitely welding is out of my league.

    I need a new bumper for 2000

    I guess the budget would depend upon how much they cost. I mean if the cheapest ones are out of range, then I'm dreaming. That being said, I have $1300 to put toward it and I'm going to have to hire someone to do it because I don't have the skills. As far as desired features go, I'm thinking...
