I think unless you do the whole truck in bedliner it'll look like butt. Wasn't a fan of the Minnow's painted doors at all.
I think it sounds like it's time for tube doors anyway.

Newest upgrade to The Honey Badger is the installation of a Hitch Gate spare tire carrier. Thanks [MENTION=47398]FIRE74[/MENTION] for the great deal!
The Hitch Gate installs in the 2" receiver that was built into my 4xInnovations bumper. Problem - could not lower the tail gate all the way. Here's my solution:
GenY Drop Hitch,Dual Receiver,Adjustable 2" Solid Shaft,Dual Receiver Hitch,drop/raise 7.5",with two 5/8"Pins "Hitch Only"
It does put the Hitch Gate out back a little more, and may hit when going over obstacles, but the whole thing is easy to remove for more serious wheeling. For Over Landing - perfect.
Here's some pictures:
Initial test fit - can't lower the tail gate. Hmmmm... What to do....
This should do the trick!
You can see it's still higher that the rear diff
Here's the final installation - along with the optional gas can carrier. Should do the trick. If there's any problems I'll update as necessary.

Sweet jerry can and spare tire location.
I think it'd be sweet to put a can on mine, but it's unfitting because it's stock and it'd probably be gone/siphoned in 5 minutes in the city...

One of the many benefits of living where I do in West Virginia. But even with the low crime rate I still have the gas can stored when it's not needed on my 4Runner. Just in case. And when I do - it's locked on the hitch gate.

Quick update to my build thread.
The Rough Country rear control arms just aren't up to any type of serious off roading adventures. This is the second time I snapped an upper control arm.
Time to get serious! So I drove on down to Chaos Off Road to get some control arms.
These should do the trick!
Also snapped the rear anti-sway bar (no pictures -- yet) so they are going to fab up something a lot stronger.
I'll take more pictures next week when everything is ready for installation!
:high5:
They also own and run Chaos Off Road Park near Capon Bridge VA. After the installation I'll be heading over there to test out the new installs.

The folks at Chaos recommended these to replace the stock rear sway bar. This should keep things on an even keel now!

I know they are mainly a Jeep production product, but the guys at Chaos are going to make it work. I'll try and post installation pictures when it's getting done.
