Installed a Toytec differential drop kit after I suffered my SECOND leaky CV boot. With only 2.5" of lift I find this odd, but we'll see how it holds up with the kit installed.

Replacing the stock bumper with the MetalTech bumper left the windshield washer fluid reservoir partially
exposed in the wheel well:
So I painted the exposed portion flat black. Partly for appearance, and partly to protect the plastic from UV damage:

That looks awesome! Thanks for sharing. I'd love to take my 3yr ild on something like that. I'm in Broomfield as well.
I just picked my Trail up from Toy Crawlers today for the lift, tires and wheels.

It's not too bad at all. I did this trail in my stock 4runner solo about a year ago. The tail itself is VERY short so it's only really good for a couple hour diversion from the insanity of Denver, but it's fun.
My parents live down there in Leyden so I'm near Coal Creek Canyon all the time.

When I did it in my stock truck I had my then 8, 6 and 3 year old with me. My 8 year old daughter did start crying when I had a wheel up, but now she wants to go back.

Took the 3 week old newborn for a couple hour drive while momma slept this morning. A little canyon road, then some muddy fireroad to wrap it up. Not the most glorious, but gotta sneak it in where I can.

Picked mine up local and received a local discount...looking forward to installing this soon and doing some testing...should be way more watts/amps than i'll need but overhead is good...P3 Solar
They have a few left ...these were older stock panels unlike the new panel 200w kits that run 1,200+++

Looks like Carbon Canyon...
It's Lake Hughes Road, outside of Castaic, CA.

I have purchased a lift/leveling kit and TRD Black rims but waiting to get those on from the dealership right now(if bought from dealer it goes into the factory warranty).
I have a 35% tint all around, I plasti dipped the front and back silver bumper pieces so far.
AFE intake today and I am looking into headers and full exhaust. I am coming from a 530+ crank HP VW and I know this will never be that but I love a motor that can breathe better on all sides.

Jesus. Is that dust on your dash or permafrost?
How'd you rack up so many miles? Tons of long trips or a really rad daily commute?Last night after hauling a uhaul of junk out of storage I realized I had hit 65,000 miles in under 2 years....

You've got me beat - it was 3 degrees here this morning. The 9 inches of snow that fell yesterday is still very much here. The plowed roads are ice.
As I was coming back from Fallon to Fernley this morning doing a nice leisurely 35 mph in the 65 mph zone I was passed by a bright red mustang. Two miles later I found him sitting in a field in the snow. I checked to see if he was OK. He was. I told him, "Just sit tight, the NHP will be along in a bit."
I have a couple of straps and shackles in back but he was too far in the field to mess with. Let him pay the tow truck for being so stupid.
